After yesterday's server constipation, we now see THIS: Server error The website encountered an error while retrieving http://www.freerepublic.com/perl/post_article?forum=chat. It may be down for maintenance or configured incorrectly. Here are some suggestions: Reload this webpage later. HTTP Error 500 (Internal Server Error): An unexpected condition was encountered while the server was attempting to fulfill the request.

Has anyyone else noticed that the website has been glitchy / basically acting up as though it is being redirected at times? Sometimes it will just sit there for a bit and I'll have to reload the page or it will jump back and orth into other forums without warning (yes, I've lcleared my caches, rebooted thecomputer and router and still having issues.I'm wondering if the site has been hacked or if there are just server issues. Anyone noticed anything strange?

Be it freepmail or comments or posting articles, every page comes up blank. I have to reload it in order to see the posting boxes. Is anyone else incurring this problem? Does anyone know what is causing this problem?

OK just posting this for now while you're not sure whether, when you receive a blank page, whether your post "took" or whether you should do it again.
