Seems like the answer to your question is in the message.

may, or may not, who knows?

" Sorry, SMF was unable to connect to the database. This may be caused by the server being busy. Please try again later. "

at least it is better than the 50X error

So this thread is pretty useless, right?  I mean the question is either answered or it isn't, and ultimately it doesn't matter because it's not significant and no one who's reading it is likely to fix it anyway. 

OP you ought to lock this stupid topic.

Maybe one thread something like PROBLEMS can be more effective and everybody will rush there to read if something is going on. But this is not bad when you see, you are not lonely with problems.

Also encountered this problem just today. Anyway, everything is fine gain. Must have been just a traffic on the web. Let's move on now. :)

Where are you based? There's been a high amount of connection complaints recently from people on the forum. I'm simply wondering if maybe it's only happening to people in a certain geographical demographic, because it never happens to me. I'm guessing there's maybe a span color causing high loads on the US servers or something?
