Well there are 2 issues. One is the site getting too much traffic. There also seems to be an issue that whenever Steam store/steam community is down, steamgift goes down as well. I'm assuming it has something to do with how steam openID works.

hence the 2 separate issues. It for sure goes down when there's a lot of traffic. I'm not disagreeing there.

site has many users who aren't in Poland, so I'm sure 10am in poland isn't that busy, but it can be busy for everyone else around the world.

trust me that I'm not that dumb as you might think...
10-11AM here in Poland is not busy time for USA for example.

Holy fuck- the site gets busy deal with it!

I'm mostly joking, btw, don't let the f-bomb throw you off... but seriously, the site went down, maybe from so much traffic? Could be? Not worth arguing.

It was down for me several times from 12pm (PST) until now (4:30), so yeah, I'm assuming it was heavy traffic.

well, maybe I've overreacted. I'm not trying to start flame wars. Just be sure that I know that when there's 10AM then everywhere over the world the time is different ;)

A while ago it seemed to be down for some regions, as I was able to access it using proxy, but was not able to normally. I say, DNS issues.

ah, I remember those a few weeks ago. I guess that makes it 3 separate issues that can happen.

I believe it's down for everybody when it's... down ;) These are server problems, not our ISP's.
