    I'm no computer geek so I thought I would ask someone who is. Chrome kicks me off this site a lot saying connection not secure and I can't get back on ADV until I reboot or wait awhile. What's up with this?

    Next time it happens, note the thread that you were in. THIS site is protected by SSL. However, if someone has embedded an image into their post and that image isn't hosted on an SSL protected server, it can cause the behavior you're describing.

    Yes we had a few server hiccups yesterday under extremely heavy load. Have you noticed it since then?

    Same problem (502 bad gateway) today on iPad and site is generally somewhat slow in loading.

    I've been getting 502 bad gateway errors for the last hour or so, on a PC with Chrome.

    When you get these errors, does refreshing immediately result in another 502 or in a loading page?

    Another 502. It just happened a few minutes ago and I had to wander away for few minutes and it came back to normal. This was on a PC running Opera.

    For me probably 80% in the page loading. 20% in another 502.

    It happened again when I was leaving this thread and going to the main menu. Google shut it down and had to wait 15 or 20 minutes before I could get back on. It happens just on this site
