Is anyone else getting flashed by King Neptune?
Several times today, I go to move to a new Fluther screen and instead, I get his Jelly-munching Majesty and a “Fluther is currently under maintenance or over-capacity” warning. Then the screen refreshes itself and all is well.
What is Fluther’s capacity?
Should I be worried about blocking the fire exits?

This hasn’t been happening to me!
Maybe it’s a sign of the apocalypse!
Or the slow death of Fluther….
Oh, ho, ho, so that’s what that is.
….I thought some user was sending you porn. I checked my inbox just to see if I got anything interesting….~
You want to watch that big weapon of his (trident) you might get a nasty prick ;¬}
And another weird thing. Looking at my name by this question, I have no lurve. It looks like “Blueroses (1)
Lurve loss is not something I signed up for with the Apocalypse!
You must be a chosen one. I still see your lurve. :D
The CHOSEN ONE!!!! Oh my! @Blueroses you’re just special, darling.
I’m seriously wondering if this is an internet existential crisis. When I went to screen capture that weird thing, my browser crashed. Now everything looks normal. Hmm. Going to see if that wine from last night had an expired sell-by date.
if you click reload a lot really quickly you can get that message
@XOIIO How sad is it that I actually tried that? It didn’t work.
@Blueroses USually click reload 8 times and then let it go, not clickclickclickclickclick but click-pause-click-pause, kinda like that
You just nutsoid, girlie!
That happens to me once in a while, but not very often.
F5 reloads the page. Bang on it a bunch and you get this.
@johnpowell – Yup! You’re right. That works. Rapid-firing F5 brings up ol’ King Neptune…
Why does King Neptune have Cheez Doodles in his mouth?
It is jelly tentacles~ beware!
That’s it! @johnpowell Thank you for confirming my sanity. But I wasn’t refreshing the page or doing anything abnormal when I was getting it earlier. Does Fluther have a capacity?
Everything looks fine to me… I don’t think we’re anywhere near capacity, so I wouldn’t worry about that. Try clearing your cache and restarting your browser if it keeps up, and see if that helps.
Thanks @augustlan. My laptop started overheating and having conniption fits shortly after all the fluther strangeness so I’m pretty sure now it was all happening in my world. I’m glad to have learned how to bring up the Neptune image at will though, so it wasn’t all bad.
If you start multi-tabbing fluther all at once, Neptunes pop up. Say you open five questions at once, you may get one Neptune.
It was inevitable that this was going to happen…just too many Jellies in the 10K mansion now and the elevators were not built to handle all the traffic. If people used the stairs more often, we wouldn’t have this problem.
More and more people are using the elevator (broadband) now instead of the stairs (dial-up). Fluther just needs to build more elevators, I guess :-p
I’ve had this happen once or twice when I have somehow got logged out. Once I sign in it is fine.
Neptune flashes me every time I throw him some beads.
It doesn’t even have to be mardi gras, what a slut.
Ah, hell @everephebe. so I can take off the beads you threw me? You slut.
Interesting.. Sometimes I get Little Snitch to display this. WTF is port 81? I know 80 is HTTP. Even after some googling it seem that nobody else knows either.
