Yet more 503s

    Getting yet more 503s, usually forcing me to repeat the same action 5 times or so. Bad enough trying to post, but it makes Moderator actions a right pain! :( It seems to only affect technical fora though, I get it all the time in Tech (and thus my own fora) but not Rec or social groups :confused: Does Boards have an issue with Firefox 4/5?

    DB takes an unplanned holiday occasionally, this was one of those times.

    Doesn't seem so bad now, wasn't a critical bug but I was a little worried as Modutils was affected too :o Thanks anyway Ross :)

    Spent about 10 minutes trying to get onto boards with both laptop and iTouch. Just thought I'd say it.

    Yup, all three database machines decided to sit down at the same time.

    Yup, master DB dropped off for about 30 seconds.

    You don't need to report 503s. We get plenty of automated alerts about them.

    Wasn't a report, merely an observation designed to get a response as to why :)

    Next time can you please be more up front about your intentions? It helps if I know which posts I can safely ignore if I'm too busy to deal with idle curiosity.

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
