    Test post! About my 100th try. I think I had one go through. This spam fight is rough....

    Yeah, the posts seem to still work, the error is the database refreshing to show you the post you just made (insofar as I can tell)

    I love the way you complain about not being able to post by posting...

    There are issues with new posts being flagged up as well. The last time this happened we end up losing a day didn't we?

    I was also having issues posting or sending PM's earlier today.

    It is happening to everyone.

    Yep, the posts themselves are going in fine. The problem is in the back end of the database - it's not sorting, indexing and outputting. Looks to me like the process is stopped on the server and needs to be re-inited.

    The way things are going, I think the server needs to be shutdown, a good full systems check run, new anti-spam measures installed, and a fresh reboot... but that's just me XD

    The error message is reflecting some other problem. My posts are being stored. One thing I noticed: the clock is not right. Hope the site will be OK. Good luck to the troubleshooters.

    Hey guys.

    There was a problem with database, fortunately it's been solved. It's not the apocalypse.

    New posts in threads are still not being listed for me

    EDIT: the database error message seems to be sorted though.

    FYI, there are still anomalies. I can't access the end of some threads. The page count on entering doesn't always match the count at the bottom of the page. Clicking on the Last page link takes me back to the top of the current page. "What's New" isn't populating correctly either.

    Another symptom. I don't think anyone can access past page 2 in apocalypse countdown thread. Similar to what Aqueous says above.
