We are currently experiencing a flood of requests from bots scraping the forums. Unfortunately it has gotten to the point where it is negatively impacting the site. As a result the forums may be slow and you may periodically experiance an error message.
We are aware of the problem and apologize for the inconvenience.
Ok, I haven't been on in a while, right? I know when I stopped logging on, I had a Lucario banner. When I log in now, I have a sig from a month ago! What the hell happened?
