Just starting this new thread up so we can keep track of when this error crops up again so we know the full scale of the issue.

I'll start:

20:06 12th August - repeated 520 errors when trying to open the forum homepage. Refreshes just caused it to refresh the error.

It happens at least every 7 pages I click on. Usually I have to refresh and it will load perfectly but it becomes impossible when I have to do mod actions.
The other day I had to do this on 3 threads : edit title - change owner - move thread. It took me 10 minutes... it should have been done in 4. Almost every time I clicked on an action I got this error, and refreshing the page 5 times didn't help either, I had to go back to previous page and then come back to my thread and start again.

I don't know what is happening but this is seriously annoying.

The latest guaranteed way to get a 520 error for me is when trying to view my private conversation notifications.

Click the envelope - error 520 - refresh - click the envelope - see the list of most recent conversations - click the new message - error 520 - refresh and repeat again to finally view the message.

I have the same problem, at least 3-4 times daily I get the Error messages. I wonder if this has to do with the enourmous ads or if this is a totally different problem.

@Sean mentioning so you see.

The 520 errors are literally one after another for me the past couple of days. It just took me several minutes to send a 3 word PM, and updating threads etc is a twice as long chore because of this issue.

Yeah, it's been less noticeable when just browsing the forum now, but anything involving PMs, editing threads/posts or voting in polls is just asking for trouble it seems 🙄

Hi guys, I'll try and look into it as I get these too but I always assume it is some sort of error in fetching the page from our servers. I have not known it to cause any serious issues from my end. Thanks for bringing it to my attention

Any news about this matter? It's beyond annoying. Sometimes I don't know if my PM was sent. Almost whenever I click "like it" or "edit" I get "Oops we ran into some problems" pop-up, sometimes twice and three times in a row.

Just to mention, I've just got "Oops we ran into some problems" when I clicked "post reply".
