Forum VERY slow

I had a database error earlier, did we lose anything?

For a second I thought uh oh... is this the end? :p
 
It’s been playing up for me for the last few days, more often than not since 13th Jan I get a “can't find that server” error message.
 
Yes, i could not load it yesterday and it gave me the " cant find server error" UK. It seems ok today Monday.
 
yesterday 17:00 - 18:00 here (Spain) too. "An unexpected database error occurred. Please try again later"
 
... the Problem partially persists

And i had a similar Guess like @Lazza
Not that it is the End of rF2 (if you did mean that), but the Beginning of the End of the Forum (Ubisoft Style). :eek:

Usually problems like these happen when the forum software (XenForo) hasn't been updated in a long time and becomes vulnerable to bot attacks. It shouldn't be a complicated thing to update. @Coutie Anyone?

It's amazing how users these days feel like they're part of the team ;)

Could be that. Might not be. Just like engine inertia, tyres, ...
 
It's not getting better.
1st try did load the unfinished Site (Screenshot) below.
Then it doesn't load at all for 20 Minutes and at the End the Message "An unexpected database error occurred. Please try again later." appeared.
