Re: Error 429 - too many requests
Was happening again. I hopped on the chat with support for a while, they killed some processes and restarted things. It seems back in business now. They recommended some optimizations on the SQL database, and on the site in general. I did the SQL stuff because it was quick and easy. The other stuff is long term, but honestly, I'm unlikely to ever get to it, unless it becomes a problem. Since the wiki and forum both run on SQL, hopefully that's the bulk of what needed doing. Keep me updated if you see the error again. (Email or discord are best, particularly if the forum isn't working well enough to send a PM)

Yes it did last week for me too. Now it seems OK.

Hadn't happened to me in a while. I don't want to jinx it though.

I hope it's fixed now. Took a bit of a break when I couldn't get on the site for several days in a row.

*does touch wood* it's been a while since that problem didn't come up.
