6. I was disconnected from the server in the middle of a game, and once I reconnected, it showed me the game as if I were a spectator. I could still post in the chat, but I couldn't see my moves/Pokémon to select one. I tried reloading the page multiple times and it didn't help. This game was the second time today that same error happened. Also, Opera is still crashing whenever I try to open Teambuilder.

Edit: The third time it happened, I copied the URL and successfully opened it in Chrome and selected my move, so it appears to be another problem with Opera.
Having the similar situation happen. Really hoping this issue is going to be fixed soon.

Cloudfire says badgateway host error its a 502

it said this
If you're the owner of this website:
Contact your hosting provider letting them know your web server is not completing requests. An Error 522 means that the request was able to connect to your web server, but that the request didn't finish. The most likely cause is that something on your server is hogging resources.

  6. This is actually for everything Smogon, theforums, analyses, showdown, but surprisingly the calculator works. Everytime I try to log into the forums it says problem loading page as if I had no connection. When I log onto showdown (both through the app and website) I get a red "couldn't connect to the server message". It seems as if the problem is with my Wi-Fi and showdown cause it's working with data on my phone. Unsure as to why this is happening, but any info would be nice. I've had no problems with my connection and Smogon before and I've been on the same network (campus Wi-Fi) since February.

  6. Every time I load the main page, it throws the "Couldn't connect to server!" message at me. When I try to go on a third-party server (i.e. Dragon Heaven, ROM), the page doesn't even load, giving me a "server not found" error instead. This has happened consistently so far, and there hasn't been any sort of announcement or alert about maintenance, planned or otherwise. Pls hlep

I'm experiencing the same issue, seems to me the domain psim.us is giving issues, since i can connect fine using a bot to the server, but smogtours.psim.us and the main website immediatly fail / ask for reconnect respectively.

6. "PS is under heavy load and cannot accommodate your connection right now." is displayed when opening PS in my desktop browser, PS windows program, my android phone when connected to WiFi, and the PS app when connected to WiFi. However, PS works on my phone with chrome and with the PS app when I am using data.
 
I can't connect to pokemon showdown, I'm using regular chrome/google, and I'm using a samsung chromebook. Anyway, the azure server and the regular pokemon showdown site does not work on my chromebook anymore. The sites say "loading" on the choose name part, and when I tried to login, it wont let me login. The password option doesn't even open for me. My friend used my account, he could login to it without any issues. I could change my password with my tablet, so I know I didn't get hacked. I restarted my computer, (didn't factory reset) I cleared my cache and cookies, tried it using http:// on both sites, I have good WIFI, but I STILL have the same problem on BOTH servers. (the azure server is down rn, but I had the problem even before that) I heard that the server was having trouble, which might explain it? Idk. I just need advice.

6. Whenever I go to PS, I get a message that says "You have been disconnected – possibly because the server was restarted." Clicking reconnect doesn't fix the issue either.

6. Whenever I try to log in I get the same message over and over: "You have been disconnected - possibly because the server was restarted." Even on the few occasions where I was able to log in successfully, attempting to chat or find a battle instantly disconnects me from the server and repeats the cycle again.

I have the exact same issue, so if you're able to find a solution, please let me know what it is. I'll do the same for you if someone helps me out first!

I have made an attempt to use Firefox and so far that seems to be the best method for using Showdown without it crashing. Aside from that idk what's going on with other browsers; I even tried installing Showdown onto Desktop and got even worse results than what I did with Chrome. So for now, I'm probably gonna stick to Firefox when it comes to using PS.
 
Hi, for the past month or so i hop on showdown and i keep getting disconnected. "You have been disconnected – possibly because the server was restarted." is what pops up every time i try to reconnect. I can only play on my laptop, when ever i try to play on my main pc i just get the disconnect message. I've confirmed that it isn't because of my firewall or internet connection. I've also reinstalled it several times with no luck.

I use chrome mainly but I've also tried IE9.
