Just to let you guys know,...the guys are working on the issue.
I'm getting the same proxy errors as you guys...and it frustrates me too. We're looking into it...just to let you know...and not leave you in the dark.
Sorry for the inconvenience.

Suggestion for the Proxy errors, as I've been ******* with them as I get them.
When you get a proxy error, hit the Back button. Immediately resubmit the post WITHOUT CHANGING ANYTHING. It will say "This is a duplicate of something you submitted in the last five minutes. Now taking you to the thread listing."
It will drop you in the section and you're supposed to see your thread there... And if it is, cool. Carry on about your day.
If it is NOT, DO NOT RESUBMIT... Wait a few minutes... I'm not sure how long it actually takes to show up, but there've been times that I've submitted a post, gotten the error, resubmitted, only to see that it's a duplicate, left for the night, and come back in the morning to see my post.
How the forum works:
There are at least TWO applications to the forum the essentials being:
The vBulliten forum layout software that makes all the pretty little things you see here... Text boxen, skins, blah blah blah...
AND
An SQL database... MySQL I believe... It tracks who posted what, when, etc etc etc... A very non pretty table and record lookin bit of organization...
When you submit your thread, it goes into the database... However when you don't see it in the thread listing, it means there's an inconsistency or mis synchronization between the two applications. Let em synch up and get on the same page and everything'll be dandy.
Keep hitting submit or refresh too much and you end up with a thread, but no posts in it, and no way to reply to it, thereby wasting more bandwidth and increasing the load between the two applications causing more mis synchs and ******* more **** up...
Just be patient. The drugs are working their way up your veins to your brain as we speak.
Crossposting this to the lounge so that more people will hopefully (Yeah right.
) follow the suggestion and maybe the problem will fix itself if not, it'll result in less headaches and take a little load off of the mods, who are BTW, providing a service to most of us (me included) for free.

I also don't have a solution for errors encountered while attempting a search.
