This is driving me nuts also.
Appears to only happen in older threads and/or those with a lot of replies.

"500 error". over and over. only got in to the FFA this time because i was able to click on your notification @Joe Bryant and it brought me directly to the thread.

Are you in Expanded Mode?
Go to the Shark Pool, next to the Start New Topic button are two others. One with four horizontal lines ==== and one with dots and lines •----. Click the one with 4 horizontal lines. Now try the FFA again.

I've been getting this since yesterday on my phone but got here now on a work computer.

Hey Joe, is there a way to increase the size of the star for threads where you have posted? The current one is small and hard to notice. Increasing size or highlighting it in some way would be helpful.

Also, I was having continued problem with intermittent 500 level error messages. The forum would be ok for a few minutes and then after a few pages, I'd get the error.
Clearing cached images and files in my Chrome Browser seems to have helped with this so far.
If you're having trouble, maybe try clearing caches in your browser.
Apologies for the trouble. We pay Invision a bunch of money each month to host these and it's beyond frustrating to have them buggy.

Good times!
On your phone, go to the Shark Pool or another forum.
At the top, next to the Start New Topic button, are two more, for condensed view (4 horizontal lines) and Expanded View (3 dots and lines).
Click Condensed View.
Now you can view the FFA.
Thanks. Are you still seeing the two options to view (condensed and expanded)? I'm not now. I think that may have something to do with how Invision is trying to address the problem.

I can still see the option Joe, I'm using Chrome on a PC.
ETA: I can also see the options on my iPhone.

tons of 500 errors just now...
Thanks for this. I couldn't get into the FFA at all the last day or so on my work machine (I actually got work done, that's unacceptable). Oddly, I was able to get into the FFA on mobile so I was able to see this post and figure it out. Maybe that setting is machine specific instead of account specific.

If you are using an old shorcut the link is wrong.
This was my old shorcut that does not work. https://forums.footballguys.com/forum/forum/4-footballguys-free-for-all/
This is the new shortcut https://forums.footballguys.com/forum/4-footballguys-free-for-all/

I got the same thing on my phone (Android) and PC this morning. I use Chrome and just select the FFA icon from my most visited list that pops-up on the chrome homepage. It's easy to update the URL for the most visited icons on a PC (click on the three little dots and select "edit shortcut") but not sure how to do it on mobile. If anybody figures out how to edit the URL of an icon on Chrome's most visited list for mobile, please post it. Thanks!

Got the same thing this morning just backing out of an open thread to the main forum.

I had to find a ways around to get in earlier, but since then it has been "Forum not found error" I am hoping I have figured it out now.

Any chance that the spoiler tags get hacked back in?
Is @Memphis Foundry still around? Or someone that's taken on his former role working under the hood?

New thing today: I can see threads on my phone (Safari browser for iPhone), but can't post or reply to threads from there. Wasn't a problem Mon thru Thu. Not a problem on desktop/laptop.
Is it working now? Working for me ok.
Can you give more detail on exactly what url is giving you the error?

Using an old iPhone 6 and Safari (not sure what version). This post is a check to see if I have any issues posting/replying.

Looks like it worked just fine.
Pip's ... if you enter the forums via the main FBG page (click "Community" up top, then choose a subforum), you can try to post or reply again. I am wondering if it's a broken-link thing, only more behind the scenes -- maybe your phone is trying to bring up some images and code from the old reply box, but now the links your phone stored for those page-building items are no longer current. That's the thinking behind Joe's suggestions to clean caches and cookies -- although going in to the forums explicitly through "the front door" -- instead of counting on now-dead links -- might help, too.

I can get into all forums except the Shark Pool.
Y'all need to use the new URLs
@Joe Bryant needs to update the links in the nav bar, and in the automated forum messages, as well.
