Sed...perhaps describe what you mean by

Do you mean "isn't online" or is showing a 502? Please be specific.

For me also.  Sometimes shows Error 502.  Sometimes will just not load.

Same for me at times. Running great now though. :-)

There were server problems earlier. They've been fixed.

So far, so good.

Just got a "Service is not available" message, refreshed and it loaded. I get that a lot, at least 4-5 times a day.

Good morning -- Monday 9:42 am new upload took 49 seconds to come up. I wasn't sure if I would have to shut down and try again. -_-

Patience, m'lad. "This too shall pass."

When it screws up (and it will, inevitably - believe me), remember: They're only pixels. They'll keep. They won't spoil if left unrefrigerated.

Pop outside, take a deep breath (if you're in a rural setting), take a squint at the sky (if you're in an urban setting, and there isn't too much photochemical haze) and commune with what passes now-a-days for nature.

:sun: |-)

I guess no one is fixing this problem, I have to re-start just to upload 33 percent of the time.

STILL all the same problems on both of my computers, re-setting both and the modem doesn't

make a difference. WHO is in charge of fixing??

Today was a bit slow here and there...but zero 502s, etc. for me. I really don't know what to tell you, Sed.

       Not so Sed.  There are many reasons why someone may not be able to access a website. It does not always have to do with said website.  Sunspots are notorious for disrupting electronics.  Browsers go wonky.

Typos (passwords). Your own router. Your IT.    So there are things you can check on your end.  Maybe you need a new modem?   And who is in charge of fixing, me. ;)  O:)  :inlove:

WC is 25 yrs old...one of the servers, located in the Valley of the Kings (Egypt), though, is a tad older having been put there by one the Pharoahs, it's rumored.

It acts up, now and then, as we geriatric types are known to do.

I shall with my magical powers, summon from his sleep revered High Priest Jafo, aka Member 23, to prevail upon the Gods of The Underworld, Support, to fix things.

(I too wish to inject humor, teddy...Doc)

Barb WHAT are you apologizing for? I never should have brought this up, I guess 

nice to see I wasn't alone .... To lighten up 

I am older than Egypt! :grin:  :grin:  :grin:  :grin:  :grin:

So, any idea why Stardock does not move the site to new servers to resolve the issue(s)? I was having issues on my site and mine got moved to new servers last year and I have not had any issues since. Might be a good idea for Stardock to do the same. Just my thoughts...  :)
