Anyone else have issues with VK locking up on Wednesday and Thursday?

I don't know what the problem is, but the last couple of days it has gotten so that randomly for anywhere from one minute to half an hour(usually on the longer side) any VK page I try to visit will not load and FF will give me the message that "the connection to server was reset while page was loading". I have gotten that message occasionally for months, but refreshing the page would always fix it instantly until the last few days. There was also one time where I got a VK message page that said "the server is too busy at the moment" around the time of having this issue.

During these VK blackouts I can still access other sites normally without any issue so I don't think the problem is on my end.

Anyone else have this happen to them?

Could someone look into this extremely annoying problem?

Yeah, it was maddening. I mentioned it in a recent post, comparing the server's reliability to that of a DeLorean. Actually, I think the DeLorean was easier to get going again.

There was a server issue, I guess. All fixed now

The "DeLorean" stalled on me briefly a couple of times again earlier, but things seem to be okay now.

The server had file corruptions which had to be sorted out. It affected all three sites (AK, VK, PC).

Glad I wasn't the only one, and that it seems to be fixed now.

Here is hoping it keeps working properly.

I have not been on here since Friday of last week (June 28, 2013), and I had to log in again even though I leave it set to "remember me".

You are working on issues from 10 months ago? Did this problem recur recently? I haven't seen it since last year.
