or at least so far it's only happening on one part of the forums, even though every other page I've tried loading since is working fine.. but when I try to go to the advertising>giveaways part of the forums I get:

Error 504 Ray ID: 532a55489a509c3f • 2019-11-08 20:36:23 UTC Gateway time-out

I've tried refreshing the page and going to it in a fresh tab, but it keeps giving me a 504, but I can go to the thread that shows up as the last posted in if I click the link to that thread directly..

is anyone else experiencing this on that part of the forums, or anywhere else for that matter?

Hmm, that forum is loading for me right now.

But I have experienced similar things with other parts of the forums sometimes. Like the General Discussion section, I've noticed it happens somewhat frequently. Like sometimes the link the that section just refuses to load, but if I have the link for individual topics in that section, those will load.

It happens on and off though, and I haven't really noticed a particular pattern of when it happens or when it works properly.

I've been getting 504s on random pages like pet pages, quickstocking items to my shop and just randomly. The giveaways part of the forum is working just fine for me rn. I don't think there's a pattern to it.

Yep. It's always the Custom Clothing forum for me, exact same problem
