Lots of timeouts yesterday and got one first time trying to get to the board this morning. Any chance of us paying customers getting a little credit or extension to our membership when this is all over? ---

From my side, on a Chromebook, main page logs in fine, and then I can navigate and open pages, but trying to continue say from page 5 to page 6 I get the error code. ---

> [@ThelmaLou](#): > > AARRGGHHH!! > > Getting lots of them. Had to get that out of my system. Thank you. My sentiments exactly, in the same font size. 😃 I suspect that there are only a small number of us dedicated/addicted users still willing to put up with the small windows of opportunity to actually access the site without gateway timeout errors. ---

I still get them from time to time, but the errors seem to be fewer and fewer. Performance seems to be crappy. ---

With the soon-coming migration to Discourse, I just got yet another 504 after a very slow save of a new post. \*\*504 Gateway Time-out shield\*\* I’ll be glad to be rid of these.
