Actually London seemed to be the hardest hit, or certainly one of the hardest hit. Been fighting it for the best part of 2 days.

It was bad on Chicago today. -(
I was surprised that during the time I had no access to the forums, I had no interest in shopping at the store. I guess it is our discussions of the products here that spark my interest in them.
It's happening when accessing Daz's site a lot these last few weeks; I can't remember the last time it happened anywhere else.
...what gets me is I live in Oregon and the server with the error was in Florida.

Well, that's the "Cloud" for you. Its everywhere, and nowhere, all at the same time! Wow.
It does beg an obvious question, though: why did we quit doing things this way back in the early '90s, and why are we back to it again now? Its not like individual PC computing and storage capacity has regressed.
The weekend was intermittent, but I couldn't get on at all yesterday after mid morning (London). Seems okay this morning so far.
As I understand DAZ_Rawb the problem was with the DAZ servers, so unless DAZ have mirror servers on several locations I can't see why it would hit differently in different places. Unless it's related to CloudFlare in some way (they have 110 data centers around the world).
I've been in the computer industry since the mid '60s and have seen the computer industry go from isolated, to networked, to distributed (remember CompuServe?), to personal, to distributed, to personal, to distributed, to personal, to distributed, to personal, to cloud ..., back and forth between local and remote modes many times. Each mode has its advantages but marketing always reaches a tipping point then pushes to the other mode because it generates more purchases again. Just watch, sometime soon we'll be switching back to some form of personal carry-around data vault for our personal data instead of accessing from a distributed source.
But regarding the "CloudFlare" technology; it seems to be an imperfect implementation of a distributed system. A truely distributed system (like the Internet itself) would have enough multiple redundancies and protocols to almost guarantee 100% uptime. ClodFart seems to booger up way too often.
Couldn't get into the forums at all last night (CET). Today seems to be fine so far.
I rarely get the errror. Yesterday I could barely get to the site during the daytime though, because of it.
