Lately when I've been trying to get on here my computer has been saying that it cannot connect to to server. It only does it with this site, and after I try it a lot it works. Everything else works on my laptop..

Yes! I've been having this problem where I can't get on EC sometimes too! I'll go to click on a link to take me to another part of the site & I'll get an internet explorer cannot display message. I have to wait a while & then try again. Sometimes it's not a long wait, sometimes it takes like a half hour. I even tried on my iPhone & it wouldn't work, so I know it's the site & not my laptop or desktop computers...

It's not just you guys. I'm going to assume it's due to the fact that this is a free site so sometimes we go down because of how much resources we use and the fact that other sites would get priority over us. Just my guess. If that makes sense which it did in my head lol

Yep, I get the same thing. Only on one day though.

Off and on (and mainly off) for the last couple of days. It seems to have righted itself recently, though.

It wouldn't let me on for a couple hours the other day. Thankfully that's the only time I've experienced it.

Server overload due to awesomeness much?

Ok thanks, I just wanted to make sure that it was not just me.. I have a tendency to have computer issues...

I'll look into this. It's been happening to me some also. We have adequate server capacity so it should not be happening and is most likely a technical issue.
