Anyone Else Having Issues with 404 Error Messages on This Site?

Since yesterday I have been getting these messages when I try to click my way around on this site. Sometimes it happens when I click on a specific question, sometimes it happens when I click on "Questions and Answers" to get back to the most current question.

If I click on the arrow to go back a page, it may or may not get me back to the previous page. Same with refreshing the page.

Not sure if there's anything else that I can do - I'm pretty much tech illiterate.

What can I do next?

So What Happened?

Kind of a relief to know that it wasn't just me, lol!

Seems to be all right now, as near as I can tell - maybe the restart while I was asleep did the trick? I hope that's true for all of you, too.

The only issue that seems to remain is the "Oops There was a problem with the page you requested and it cannot be displayed." message on one particular thread that I was trying to follow ("Grandparents showing favoritsm getting worse"). Never seen that before - at least not when I've been able to access the rest of the site without issues.

Thank you to all who responded, and I hope that access is back to normal for all of you, too!

Yes, and I don't believe it's a Mac vs PC issue. I'm getting a 'cannot find site on this server' message and I'm using Safari.
I like to read some of the advice and opinions on this site, but sometimes it does seem bothersome.
What's up with the constant 'my mother (or brother, ex-step daddy, etc.) makes $....?
I was gone for a while and when I came back I see them all the time! Annoying too.

I wasn't until I read this. :/

Now I am seeing it 3-4x every time I try to post an answer, and to open some of the other questions.

You jinxed me. Lol.

I am having the same problems. It seems every time I click anything it is popping up. I had to click on one question about 6 times before it would let me read it.

Yuck!!

No, I'm not. I wonder if it has to do with a few things.

!. I'm a Mac user and don't ever see these error messages. Maybe those problem are unique to PC's.

2. What search engine are you using? I'm using Safari, so maybe Safari is somehow preventing those messages from coming up.

3. Maybe it's Mamapedia? they do occasionally do weird stuff.

Good luck in getting it to stop!

It is happening to me today. I had no problems yesterday but this morning is hit or miss with selecting a question and sending flowers.

Yes. I have to go back to the daily email and click through again to 'see all of today's questions". It seems to help if you click through more slowly than usual - maybe the pages aren't loading fast and we get ahead of the system??

I'd suggest copying and saving any answers or questions before clicking "post" just to be sure things aren't lost! Retyping is a huge pain and so frustrating!

Yes, every other question I right clicked on and opened in a new tab. I simply clicked the swirl by my home button, refreshed the page and it came right up.
