Planned load balancer failover shortly

Hi all,

As part of our new hardware project, I'm going to be failing us over to our new load balancers. This will involve a brief downtime for the site while everything fails over, but it should be less than 60 seconds.

Thanks for your patience, and sorry for the interruption!

I use my DW site as an OpenID to log into other sites, and I'm getting this error on 2 different sites:

Verification of the OpenID URL failed. Error message: "Server denied check_authentication"

OpenID authentication failed: Server denied check_authentication.

This just started today, and may be related to this change.

I assume the site looking weird (the main pages loading, but without the special skin applied, more or less) is a result of this? Everything's still functional, it's just -- all in a column, if that makes any sense.

I noticed last night that the arrows to expand and collapse would only be there to expand them. After you clicked them open, the word 'Collapse' would replace the arrows at the top and bottom of the cut text.

Now the arrows are gone and all I have are Expand to open and Collapse to close.

I've just noticed that instead of having the little 'expand cut' arrowheads, there's text to expand/collapse cuts. Is this new and normal, or new and wrong? Either way, it's bizarre-looking.

is this related to how slow and dodgy the site's been lately? i'm getting really long load times trying to post entries, somewhat long load times trying to post comments, and the odd 503 error. been going on for about two days now. (eta) also notifications have been wonky, especially tracked stuff for when communities update.
