I dont know if this is same thing but im using firefox and several times today ive had blank screen and even after 6+ refreshes ive had problems viewing.Once today i had the main page load up and the top section for forum posts has been empty , one reply i made earlier actually gave a white screen after.
Never had this before in all the time ive been with guru and just wondered if anyone else has had this or if its down to guru code changes.

I was: Browsing the forums posting in off-topic when I received the CURSE banners everywhere. They are in the threads, in the forum section and on the forum main page. They have been here when I have been posting and trying to just browse in general.
How long it took to load a page or get an error: The load times do not seem to be affected, maybe 10-20 seconds to load a page and I have received no error pages. Just a majorly messed up format of the forums.

I'm using Firefox. Fully updated and everything.

Edit: Right after I posted this it seemed to resolve itself though my avatar is the G from Guru instead of my other avatar, or at least that is what it looks like to me.

I was: trying to load my subscriptions folder
How long it took for the error page to appear: immediate

It was better when I next checked it, less than 30 min. later.

ditto on Jenn's from two posts ago, too. I saw it was already posted long after I'd forgotten exactly which page I was trying to load.


EDIT - It may not be related, but I've noticed the list of "Currently Active Users Viewing This Thread" at the bottom of each page stops appearing for a while after the recovery from one of these network errors. The same goes for the list of people viewing the subsections (normally to the left of list of mods at the bottom.) They come back later (so far.) I am sure it's not a case of loading a page as a guest - this is happening when I'm logged in here.

I was: trying to open threads and preview a reply to a thread (tabbed browsing) in PC
How long it took for the page to time out and the error appear:
- one spun for ~30 sec. and got the Curse error page.
- another timed out/connection reset firefox error page after a while
- the preview reply got a "502 Bad Gateway" page

It started to recover a couple minutes later, but it was iffy at first - some would load, some would stall.

I first noticed it when trying to post a reply to a sell thread - I got that "502 Bad Gateway" page after several seconds. I refreshed a few min. later, and it posted fine.
Then I tried to view a thread and got the Curse network error page almost immediately.
Various pages now are loading slowly, but it seems to be recovering.

But every time I notice this happening, once it's recovered the lists of users viewing the threads and the forum sections disappears for a while after the recovery.

The forum completely karked out for me last night. After ten minutes I gave up trying. First curse error was an accidental double click on the next page number in the search list of new threads. The next couple of pages loaded ok, and then the entire forum froze up. I was getting a mixture of the curse error and the old "search is disabled, probably due to high load, please use google" message when I tried to reload pages.

now (see the time I posted) getting white pages, 502 errors and IF pages load it is taking about 30sec-1min per page.

edit while posting (I started posting this thread at :23--took 3 minutes to post and 3 502 errors whilst trying)

I was: trying to preview a PM before sending
How long it took: After spinning for about 2 min. or so, I finally got the Curse network error page.

Same thing happened again about an hour later. It started when I tried to view my subscription folder, took a couple min. for the error page to show, and this one seemed to last ~20 min. (longest one I've noticed recently.)

If you are getting the occasional "Curse Network Error" page please post here with this template describing what you were doing.
First off, this is not occasional, it is occurring every time I try to load even the home page. Has been ongoing for almost a week.

Date: 2010-10-21
Time: 11:25a thru 11:45a Central Time U.S.

Getting the Curse Network Error just trying to reach the home page.

How long it took for the page to time out and the error appear: Approx sixty seconds for each attempt. After 4 or 5 attempts, I minimize screen for 2 or 3 minutes and try again.

I am using Firefox, latest version, running NoScript add on.


Edit: Much better, 9:00p to 9:30p.

How long it took for the page to time out and the error appear: Sixty seconds. I then couldn't get back until I shut down the site and relogged. Logging in took approx. 60 secs per screen. Let's hope I can post this.

And no I couldn't, same error, same timeframe x 2. Shut off site at 10:11AM.
Came back at 11:34AM and it was fine.

How long : I hit save changes and it took about 30 sec. to get the 502 Bad Gateway page (not the Curse Network page.)
Then this page seemed to load after a few seconds when I tried it (and posting this took a few seconds w/out hangs.)

I'm using Firefox.

I'm still using Firefox. I don't know how long it lasted because I went afk for an hour or so after it happened.


EDIT - I've noticed Firefox waiting for the gamesites thing a lot for the past ~48 hrs or so. But that never seems to result in these error pages, timeouts, etc. for me ... it just seems to be involved when pages are loading slowly.

In my opinion, this sort of thing is happening far too much lately. It's happened numerous times to me - this is just the first time I decided to report it. Very frustrating.

It's occurring too often atm for me to keep posting a record here every time it happens. I use New Posts search anywhere between 1 and 3 times a day (morning, afternoon, night) and get the curse error at least once every time. It's becoming v frustrating attempting to navigate this site.

Last two occurrences for me were at the same time as drkn's post above - one whilst attempting to view the PvP match commentary thread and the other whilst navigating to the next page in the New Posts search.

That was the most recent occurance for me. This error shows up multiple times a day on both GWG and GW2G. A few minutes later it will clear up. It happens using Chrome and IE8.
