If you get a 503 error screen when trying to access HardOCP or HardForum at work or school. Please let me know about it via email or in this thread, and we will get that fixed. kyle@hardocp.com
This should not impact anyone, and the chances of it happening are very small.
Thanks!
503 Service Unavailable
The server is currently unable to handle the request due to a temporary overloading or maintenance of the server. The implication is that this is a temporary condition which will be alleviated after some delay. If known, the length of the delay MAY be indicated in a Retry-After header. If no Retry-After is given, the client SHOULD handle the response as it would for a 500 response.
Note: The existence of the 503 status code does not imply that a
server must use it when becoming overloaded. Some servers may wish
to simply refuse the connection.
