Never seen this particular one before:

At the time I was trying to access p4 of the Bonfire.

Not certain if this is the same issue.
I just made a post in Bonfire, and got this:

Upon checking, I found the post was submitted.

I'm having the same problem. I try to reply to posts, and keep getting the message:

Yeah, I had a similar problem on RC and Basejumper.com, too. There's a ticket in for this already, highest priority. I'll keep this thread posted.

Doing a little software upgrade tonight, midnight Pacific time. The site will be down about 60 minutes. This should partially resolve the issues we had Saturday morning (and a little bit Sunday). There are other things we need to do, too. Most notably, we need to make it so the video downloading is a bit more streamlined. It seems the major problem Saturday was a flood of video requests, which caused the hamster in the wheel to trip and get knocked unconscious (I'm not joking, but it is a metaphor). More on that later.

That's be the video issues, I believe. I okayed the estimate to do the work yesterday afternoon, but it's not done yet.
