Nothing scary - but has happened on very rare occasions. I think it happened on the first day we opened but not seen it since. You may never experience it but you will know when you do because you will get a grey screen with the error message in the middle! I'm telling you all about it now so you don't panic or anything! It just means there are server problems on number 104 (the server our board is on).
Try the following steps if this happens:
(might be an idea to save this info somewhere else so you can refer to it if the error comes up)
1. Wait 20 seconds and try again.
2. Refresh the page if step 1 doesn't work.
3. Click on your back button and try navigating around the forum from the 'forum jump' drop down menu at the bottom right of the page, rather then going to the home page link.
4. If none of these things work -
Check the link below to see if server 104 is offline or online. If it's 'online' or 'busy', the problem shouldn't last very long - just keep trying. Repeated refreshing however could make the problem worse, so it's best to wait a while before trying. If it's offline, it might take slightly longer to access the board.

In this case, I will get in contact with Support@proboards and ask them to look at the issue, but they are likely to already know about it.
It's annoying I know, but be assured it's only a temporary fault, very rare and it's nothing to worry about.
