Friends List DCs
Frangeo Munda
I don't know if this has been posted before, and I apologize if it has, but I seem to disconnect from the Friends List server (which seems to be different from the "play" server) very often. I was in GToB district 1 American today, and I was virtually unable to sell because of the constant DCing. While it's not as annoying as a DC from the "play" server, it still seems odd. I've also noticed (via what people are sayin in chat), that it's not just me. Any word on why this is happening?

For the last few days our guild/ally has been having massive problems with people disconnecting from the friends list. I am assuming this is widespread. Are other people having the same problems. Does anyone know what is causing this?
June Bug
Yeah, happens to me too all the time now.

It happens all the time to me now, same with people in my guild and ally

not just you...cant seem to keep CONNECTED to the dang friends server! (been happening the last bunch of days...so not just today either).
I have theories, but nothing concrete, so I wont get my tinfoil hat out just yet---
BUT I will say that there are a lot of power outages on the east coast of the usa and scattered around the country as well due to the high heat. (may or may NOT have anything to do with it).

Been happening to me too, but I haven't talked to anyone so thought it was just me. Guess not :/

I'm wondering if this'd do better in the Technician's Corner since it is, ya know, a technical problem? Just a thought.
EDIT:
Now I get this error when going to forum.guildwars.com:
502 - Web server received an invalid response while acting as a gateway or proxy server.
There is a problem with the page you are looking for, and it cannot be displayed. When the Web server (while acting as a gateway or proxy) contacted the upstream content server, it received an invalid response from the content server.

It's been happening to me too the past 3 days...quite frequently I might add. A thread has been started on GW Support Forum regarding this issue.
Way2dead
same problem, but having to add the fact that on my laptop im never able to reconnect without having to restart guild wars due to some pretty much unknown error.
Sagittario
This happens to me like 4 times every day. All my friends and guildies also complain about it.

I've been getting dc'd from fl a lot, now it won't let me connect.
Mudcat
I have also been encountering the friends list issue, and am also now unable to log in at all due to error 042.

Yip I have this way more often then usual too. To add, it seems to me to be linked to zoning from one area to the next. 3 of my friends zoned from lvl 2 bloodstone caves to lvl 3 bloodstone caves and all three their fl's dc-ed at the same time (I was in Ascalon area lvl-ing and questing with a new toon).

The only thing i hate is that if I dc from friend list and i try to switch char it ask me the password again. Not to mention that if i try to reconect to friend list server I can't click on Login I have to press Enter (no joke, clicking on Login has no effect, funny part is that clicking on Cancel works).

Idk if anyone else noticed, but in the gw2 beta you could see when your friends were logged in gw1 on your friendslist. (showed them online even though they were on gw1 instead of gw2) which leads me to believe the servers they used for both game's friendslists were the same. My guess is they're switching one game or the other to a different server, upgrading their shared server. Or just stress testing. We'll find out I guess.

It's destroying Kamadan if anyone wants to trade something. It's a big issue IMO
cosyfiep
and if you change characters you have to log back in---pain in the butt when you are moving stuff around toons....hope they get this fixed soon---IF they are working on it at all 
carnage-runner
Yea this is getting annoying... If they don't fix it I might cancel all my life and die just to avoid it. On a serious note... This is getting quite annoying. I've noticed it for the last several days now. It's been getting worse as well. Hopefully this doesn't lead to some serious problems like duping/account corruption or some BS like that. I'd hate to get screwed over because Anet didn't manage the issue.

Has been ongoing for a few days now for me too. Personally, it isn't a real problem, more of an annoyance, unless I am trying to buy/sell.
Raven Wing
I have it too, very frequent disconnects and also having to re-login when changing char.

Hi everyone,
We identified a problem related to the Friends List yesterday and fixed it in today's new build. We're sorry about this. Please let us know if you're still seeing that kind of behaviour.
Thanks.
