Because of what - what happens and what are you doing between each attempt to try and resolve it?

I'm sorry - I know it's frustrating, but it's very intermittent/user specific - I've not had a single error message on either by laptop nor my phone throughout the period others have.

I had issues today. When I tried to look at my alerts it came up with an error. Then when I tried to open a thread I got a bad request error page.

Cleared my cookies and that seemed to sort it. (firefox on a macbook)

Fine on my laptop but no NSC on my Android phone since 7ish.

Still getting the bad request notification on mobile site despite having deleted cookies etc. Works fine in an incognito tab.

I've been having problems with NSC for a few days but just delete the cookies and it works for a while, then it stops so just delete cookies again and it works. This is on Firefox on my Iphone and laptop and also Edge on a laptop.

It's more advert than forum now.

That's what I'm getting on an incognito tab. Sometimes the ad expands to cover the whole screen.

Clearing NSC cookies in any browser will resolve that.

It's neither ideal nor a long-term fix, I appreciate. I'm spending a LOT of time trying to get this sorted for good.

That'll be a quite aggressive ad from the sticky footer bar on mobile. I've turned it off for now.

Still getting Bad Request on Chrome on my Samsung Tablet. Had to go incognito to post this.

Clearing nsc cookies WILL fix it.

An incognito window starts with no cookies which is why it works, and why clearing them will fix it for regular browsing.

Error message: "Oops! We ran into some problems. Please try again later. More error details may be in the browser console."

This on Microsoft edge on desktop after I clear cookies and try and post my score on the wordle page and get this. Not sure what browser console is. Chrome seems to be ok on my desktop.

Unfortunately whatever has triggered that can only be found from your end.

Ctrl+Shift+J opens the console on Edge. If you do that, you should see the error message somewhere. If you post that here, I'll be able to take a look, but it may be just one of those one-offs (or few-offs) which self resolves.

Definitely a whopper of an ad

Having the same issues as other users have described on my Huawei Android. Just cleared the cookies but hasn't made a difference! Still getting the Bad Request error message.

Same here, I've given up trying to access NSC on my phone (Samsung Android) it just won't work, using my laptop.

I'm doing some stuff - the site will remain up but the DNS-y internet-y things may break connectivity at some point for different people at different times.

I'll try to get it all back as quickly as I can.

NSC has become unavailable on Edge but remains available on Google. Perhaps I need to empty my Edge cache. Should I call Bono, I wonder?

Have to report the same issues on Chrome.
