Why do I get a "gateway timeout" message when searching DU?

This happens frequently when I use the "search this forum" feature.

This is not a constant problem for me, but it happens often enough to be really annoying. Anyone know what causes this?

But it was when the admins were doing site maintenance on DU - and EarlG posted a heads up in Announcements. It's possible that they've been doing that again.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
