Error 503 Service Unavailable
I have occasionally seen the error when opening the Trading Post in-game before, but with the most recent patch it has become much more common.
Although, refreshing the page usually solves it.
Yeah getting it all day, Forums, Website and TP. Luckily it’s not permanent, as refreshing the page or re-opening the TP usually fixes it.
The TP server constantly has woes. Annoying to be doing a bunch of transactions and things fail right in the middle.
There is either a server issue or a network one. I am a bit shocked that it still exists though as that is where anet makes their money.
When I get that kind of error, typically logging out and then back in fixes it. Metaphorically I think it’s kind of like your computer and the server are holding hands when you log in, but if ever your hands are ever broken apart and your computer tries to hold hands with the server again, the server is like “How do I know it’s really you and not your evil twin?” So the server refuses to let you do certain things like use the TP, thinking maybe you are a hacker and not the legitimate account owner.
I’m getting this error quite often since the latest patch both on the website as the gemstore, sometimes forcing me to reload the page over 5 times.

But theres an easy circumvention for the problem (not sayign that this should become the norm now lol), but for those who permanently hit on this server error, type into your adress line of your browser behind the com/ the word forum and you should get relinked to the normal webpage site, from where you can click then the hyperlink to the forum and it works without problems to get onto the site.
While we are speaking of server problems, theres also for a while a server problem in the game with the trading post about the same stuff, thsat the “service is unavaiable”.
Same thing here, its not really a problem, switch a bit fast between the categories and the game should show you the tradign post normally then… as a little solution for that…
yeah its annoying to do it everytime it occurs, but it helps.
