Subject: Service Unavailable

Message:
Has anyone received this message when clicking on several links in succession. I was looking at a mini-T to determine whether to enter (or not). After 3 or 4 clicks on player's profiles, while hitting the back button between profiles and clicking on the next player down the list, with the tooltips popping up in between, I got the Unavailable message. Obviously GK has to police the use of their resources, protect against DoS attacks etc... but I wonder if the new tooltips that are available everywhere are contributing to more requests to the server and thus triggering the the Unavailable message.

I don't think the tooltips are contributing requests to the server. They're already loaded into the page in an onmouseover command when you visit. I think you arrived to an "unavailable" message by regular activation of flood control. Slow down! :p

I get the same message when clicking through the Game DB too quickly :-)

I have not had this trouble. [Could this be different depending what Browser is being used ?!]
