I was getting failbooru with a lot more than just uploads. The uploading failbooru stopped for me a few hours ago, but I am still getting one for other stuff.

I noticed that someone or something was hitting the tag history pagination pretty hard which was causing load on the database server to spike to 12+. I've since changed the pagination method and things seem to be normal again. Please let me know if you see an abnormal number of failboorus again.
post #767874 -> Touhou - Tag Dream Tribute:
Adding to pool...
Error: [object Object]
Adding the tag manually:
tag = pool:touhou_-_tag_dream_tribute
The database timed out.
(adding other tags works)
I was finally able to get in, I wasn't able to access forum threads, upload images (in either Internet explorer or firefox), send PMs, and tags, while they were added, crashed.
I also got a weird bug where I changed a tag, the page crashed, then it said "your vote has been saved" even though it added the new tag.
Right now, I can only enter threads/add forum-posts, everything else is still bugged.

There was a period of Failbooru messages that seemed to last for more than an hour from my end (12:37 PM to 1:50 PM EST).
Same here. The failbooru only pop up for uploading, editing tags, and opening unread forum threads. Anything else including open other read threads is fine.
Now I can get in here, but still cannot upload.
