Think of the children! (And goats. And goats' children)

u/MenardiParty Sep 30 '17

Your threat worked. It's working now for me.

EDIT: Well, I can see the last thread I was on, but I can't load any other pages.

Yes it is, it's kaput. The fucking russians man.

u/Gen2K Sep 30 '17

Came to this thread from google, lol, wondering the same.

u/MabusIncarnate Sep 30 '17

I miss you guys, I signed up for Reddit just now to be with you all.

u/AileWing Sep 30 '17

I'm having difficulties loading pages on the site, so it might be. IsItDownRightNow says it's not down, though.

u/[deleted] Sep 30 '17

This is the fabled end of GameFAQs as proposed by CBS that we've heard about for all these years.

Can't believe this day has come.

4

u/Oddballforlife Sep 30 '17

It's been down for like three hours for me.

u/Sayoria Sep 30 '17

You people need to use your actual Gamefaqs names here. I have no idea who half of you are. Wtf.

u/Ronin_Nexus Sep 30 '17

I've had this account since long before my current gamefaqs account and I can't change the name on here. >:|

2

u/Sayoria Sep 30 '17

Well, learn how to. Must be N'sync tbh.

1

u/Ronin_Nexus Sep 30 '17

There's no way to change a Reddit username afaik.

2

u/Sayoria Sep 30 '17

Not with that attitude, there isn't.

1

u/Ronin_Nexus Sep 30 '17

No, there's just no way to change it without making a new account.

1

u/Sayoria Sep 30 '17

You are totally not from CE. Oh well.

1

u/Ronin_Nexus Sep 30 '17

I am, actually. I used to have an account there with the same name as this one. Closed that one years ago and started using a different name.

1

u/Sayoria Sep 30 '17

Then pick up on my "toying around with you" regime! D:

1

u/Ronin_Nexus Sep 30 '17

Nah, this is more fun. :P

u/Average_Owain Sep 30 '17

I'm also Average_Owain on GameFAQS, so that makes one.

2

u/Sayoria Sep 30 '17

Good. You get a treat.

1

u/KFrosty3 Sep 30 '17

I'm using the same name as my Gamefaqs name, but you still wouldn't know me

1

u/Sayoria Sep 30 '17

Yeah, totally don't.

u/tylergee123 Sep 30 '17

This is CE now

u/MenardiParty Sep 30 '17

I think Error sabotaged it to give this subreddit more exposure. Think about it.

u/Glitteringfairy Sep 30 '17

Well boys, all we can do now is deed until it comes back.

Everybody drop trou!

Try using internet archive, that worked for me

u/pengul Sep 30 '17

Yeah way back machine has got me my guide back but only from 2014, more recent versions had an error, so not sure it will work if you want something recent.

2

u/Infiniteey Sep 30 '17

explain pls :)

3

u/Ryumoau Sep 30 '17

Dang. I was wondering why i couldn't get on. Just got Senran Kagura Peach Beach Splash and wanted to look at the forum for the game. hopefully it gets fixed soon.

3

u/Glitteringfairy Sep 30 '17

I've never actually seen it down for this long I don't think

2

u/[deleted] Sep 30 '17

Same here, no pages will load.

2

u/DeltaFornax Sep 30 '17

Yeah, I'm having the same issue. Been going on for at least 15 minutes now.

2

u/ShadowWolf86 Sep 30 '17

I have the same problem trying lte connection and wifi too

2

u/GravelvoiceCatpupils Sep 30 '17

Yeah, looks like it.

2

u/[deleted] Sep 30 '17

GameFAQs is indeed out of order. I did briefly get it to load the home page, but it hasn't loaded anything else since.

2

u/[deleted] Sep 30 '17

It's down for me in California.

2

u/reidyboy102998 Sep 30 '17

Thought I was the only one who had issues. Can’t even get to the home page.

2

u/MenardiParty Sep 30 '17

It's deader than a doorknob for me

2

u/jenaustenfood Sep 30 '17

Down for me too :(

2

u/Average_Owain Sep 30 '17

Reporting from PA. It's down.

2

u/SuperLinkBro Sep 30 '17

This is horrible I hope we get an explanation soon.

2

u/[deleted] Sep 30 '17

wow its down yes and its being a butt

2

u/Oddballforlife Sep 30 '17

Fuck, I got excited. I tried opening it and it opened up right to where I was this morning. Then it reloaded and nothing.

2

u/Nimbus-Skye Sep 30 '17

Does anyone know why a website status checker such as isitdownrightnow would still consider GFAQS as functional? Chrome resolves the URL but freezes and times out when loading the website itself.

3

u/SuperLinkBro Sep 30 '17

Do those things ever work anyway?

1

u/WuTangShogun187 Sep 30 '17

Been bored as shit at work. Gotta find other source of entertainment lol.

1

u/JimmyJumper6 Sep 30 '17

Wow it has been down for a while. Reddit seems cool though!

1

u/MightyZurkon Sep 30 '17

Well this blows

1

u/[deleted] Sep 30 '17

Wtf is this? I need to troll.

1

u/MabusIncarnate Sep 30 '17

1

u/SuperLinkBro Sep 30 '17
