Possible Coding Bug?

[WillUnderwater]

Don't know if this is a bug/browser issue - etc - but I thought I would post it just in case..

This appears on the home page - I have seen it a couple times and it appears off and on. Using Safari 4.0.1 on OS X Leopard.

ERROR:

I've been asked to peek in and help, but this error is on the server side, so there is nothing users or moderators could do about it. It is apparently a bug in the script running the advertizing banners, or perhaps corrupted database or a missing table in the database. If Stephan wrote the script alone, he will need to check it out and fix. If he uses a script from a 3rd party, he will need to contact them, or check out if a newer version with a bug fix is available.

This was a problem with one of the core parts of code for the site. It's been happening on and off for about a year but I couldn't track it down until the other week. Wasn't actually anything to do with the advertising script but how the site held connections to the database.

All should be good from now but do let me know.
