Q&A down?
TappedOut forum

I can't access the Q&A section, after the site had crashed and was restored.

Yep. I messaged him earlier about it. I deleted some ghost questions around 1:00, so it may be that the site needs time to underp itself.
Sometimes, the posting process will go wonky and a thread will multi-post, but give an error and bugged post stats whenever someone tries to open it. There were three earlier, plus a spam post.

So this must be the reason so many people post questions in the forums instead of the Q&A section!

This is the first time in quite a while the Q&A has actually been down.

Aaaaand it's gone again. Here's a crazy thought though:
The second I try to post my question, it crashes. Same thing happened the first time a couole of hours ago - It works, I try to post, broken.... am I breaking it?

Are you leaving some weird html or formatting tag open by mistake?

Nope, just the card links, like Island . But maybe it causes problems anyway?

Not trying to get an answer here, but maybe this helps finding out what's wrong.
Everey question has a general question section and an in-depth section. What I'm trying to post looks like this:
General/title:
"With Master Transmuter 's ability on the stack, taking itself back to my hand, can I respond with Fauna Shaman , discard Master Transmuter , pick up Platinum Angel and put it into play concluding Master Transmuter 's ability?"
In-depth/explanation:
"I know I can return the Transmuter to my hand as a cost, so that's out of the way.
Master Transmuter 's ability should stay on the stack all the time and isn't even targeted, so responding with Fauna Shaman should work, right?
The real question, I suppose, is, must I pick something I wanna put on the battlefield with the Transmuter's ability before I respond with the Shaman?"

I could see the title field being too large with that many links etc. in it, and that causing some kind of issue.
Usually the Title of it should just be something short yet informative. Perhaps something like
"Combo question with Master Transmuter and Fauna Shaman"
and then spell out what you currently have as your General Title in the body of the post as well.

Also, "Yes you can do that, exactly how you described it. You don't select what to put onto the battlefield with the ability of Master Transmuter until the ability resolves."

Well then, nice combo I guess :D
Also, the site tells you when the title is too long, what you look at is actually the short version -.-'
I honestly think the links in the title break something.

Good Sirs, I'd like to point your attention to this issue.
