Is MN Down again for anyone else?

I keep getting the 502 error.

Is this another DDOS, or is MN tinkering causing technical issues?

Seems to be fine this evening, but was getting the error message earlier when tried to access

LadyCatStark · 06/03/2021 19:47

It seems to happen every weekend these days.

Hopefully everything is back to working fine for everyone now, our tech team have let us know that it was a technical problem on the site hosting side of things, which they have been working hard to fix.

Same here iPhone via safari

@TheOrigRights

I've never come across such a major website with such frequent problems.
Yep.

And it’s been this way forever on MN. I’m not sure why they consistently have such ridiculous tech issues.

Hello - the site should be back up and running again. We're just awaiting some more info from our tech team. Apologies for the hassle. Wine
Any ideas on the cause? Was it MN fault or external?

Yep... Crashing your own website by releasing new code? Do the tech team not test?

@maxineputyourredshoeson

This was from yesterday so maybe it’s to do with this?
Possibly. The errors seem to have stopped now, so hopefully it's just MN tinkering.

Bad gateway here to, error 502

Lonelycrab · 06/03/2021 17:01

Yep bad gateway here a lot of the time.

If you go to down detector or similar websites it says it’s down for everyone.

Nacreous · 06/03/2021 17:00

I'm on the website (android, chrome) and getting repeated 504 bad gateway errors here.

Nutrigrainygoodness · 06/03/2021 16:49

I was getting it really bad on Google on my phone. But it was bad yesterday and last week 🙄 I had to download the app cos I'm addicted to see if it was just me.

Kettledodger · 06/03/2021 16:48

@Champagneandmonstermunch

It's fine on my phone but can't get on at all on the laptop.
Are you using the App on your phone, or the website?

@CassandraCross

502 Bad Gateway here almost constantly. Wouldn't be surprised if it's another DDOS attack.
If I remember correctly the previous one was also on a Saturday.
