Well it seems to be working for you now

Working fine for me, I'd imagine it'll resolve itself later.

"E621 gone ---------- created by: Varka" *gasp*

Hahah I'm glad to see I'm not the only one that did that.

I was off having a breakfast of concrete before my chem test and THIS happened?

This isnt e621 is it? This is e962. There is a difference. e621 is offline.

Did you blacklist something?

That error page is generated by Cloudflare, so I don't think blacklisting could produce it. All of the times I've seen that page it has been genuine (ie. checking in another browser, without logging in, produced same result)

Still I would recommend you try that (try a different browser and/or a private window where you're not logged in), just to be sure, ryderdeath.

BTW: (most of) the rest of us are accessing this thread via https://e621.net/forum/show/172512 , so, no, this is not e962. e962 forums are just an alias for here, AFAIK.
It's the post-serving and especially image-serving parts of e621 that are tied up with Cloudflare.
Ergo, you should be able to access https://e621.net/forum/ even if you can't browse images.

Sometimes I get this, too.

My connection - OK
Cloudflare Frankfurt - OK
Host - lost connection

or something like that. Waiting for a few minutes always fixed it for me

I've gotten a permanent Error 520 from Cloudflare once because I've inserted a Mona Lisa ASCII text art into the blacklist, it's completely blocked me out of e621.

I wasn't able to visit the site, until I went to e926(which was suprisingly working) to clear it.

During some of my digging a few weeks back I managed to find this page, which apparently does the same thing.

...Huh. Is this what happened during those two days I did next to nothing on e621?

It's also what happened during the three hours I was having a nice breakfast of concrete, i.e. I was getting my wrist injured on campus. Fucking cracks big enough to stop a scooter.

I normally use chrome but even with both IE and Firefox I still get error, even in private browsing.

Even on different computers. There is something wrong somewhere and its not with me.

Ok so I used a proxy to make me appear in Germany and it works. Something is wrong with the miami fl, server.

Just for a little debug info you could try and open up a command line interface and try pinging and doing a traceroute e.g.:
nslookup e621.net / host e621.net (does the name even resolve to an IP?)
ping e621.net (can you reach the end server?)
traceroute e621.net (how far do you get?)
tracert e621.net (windows)
pathping e621.net (windows)
mtr e621.net (linux)

This should give you some information of how far you get, though might not give more information than you already know. Unfortunately I'm not intimately aware of how e621.net or CloudFlare works under the hood.

I've been getting the same error for a month now. Something is wrong with the Miami server, it seems. I hope they fix it soon. Are they even aware of the problem? It took me forever of searching to even find out that this was a problem specifically with me being in Florida.

It sometimes happens to me as well but only for a very brief moment. If I just reload or go to another page for a few minutes and come back it seems to be okay for me.
