For more than a week now, I get this message at least once every day. Sometimes more.

401 Unauthorized

I Swear I didn't do it.

But anyway, the first time this happened, I figured the issue would resolve itself eventually, and sure enough, about an hour later I could access the forums again.

But then it keeps repeating itself every day. Where sometimes I get that 401 message and sometimes I can access the forum.


Also, I've noticed a very steep reduction of new post being made, around the same time this 401 issue started. I wonder if I'm not the only one with this issue...

It's a known issue and it's going to be looked in to, as usual no ETA
