Been getting a Error 502 L3
Which I know is typically a server issue I also checked steam db to see if the servers are down but it says everything is normal. So is it only me having this issue?

I've been having the same problem yesterday and today.

Just as I was posting this comment, I got. "Sorry, some kind of error has occurred: There was an error communicating with the network. Please try again later."

My only solution is to keep clicking until you get where you need to go.

same for me too.

how are you guys accessing the forums!?

desktop pc? laptop? tablet? phone?

what OS?

are you on wifi or wired?

seems like more people should be complaining if it's super wide spread. Maybe the server is having issues with certain devices.

Never got so many of these errors in a row in the last years. Something's amiss.

Laptop, Win 10, wifi (client and a browser) and Android phone on 4G. All issues currently.

It's not related to devices. Further more, Steamstat is showing loads of yellow "offline" and "Unknown", especially the community and Web API.

It's also hard for people to post about issues when they can't reach the forums properly or post properly. ;)

Edit: Steamstat shows everything green and online again. Forums seem to respond quickly, so let's hope that stays.

Could it be a attack on steam with DDOS? I know this happened before.

Just an intermittent server issue. Could be anything.
