I have this problem again from yesterday, you should inform @GoAskAlice and not write a post about this.

@Shavkat The most recent occurrence (last few days) has happened after a particularly nasty bot attack of spamming when someone created several thousand accounts with myLot in about 5 hours, Each new account created sends out an email in confirmation and it was these emails (which are handled by the Amazon server) which - in my own opinion - could have caused the problem. If the server began to be blacklisted as a 'spam bot', it may have been deprecated by DNS servers (which are the ones which decide which route your Internet request takes to its destination) and that sort of problem usually takes a day or so to sort itself out as the DNS servers talk to each other (as they do).

@GoAskAlice I think that you are guessing right. For several days I had no more errors, from a few days ago it started again. You can do nothing, you must wait for Amazon.
EDITED
It is A LOT better today!

Unfortunately, it's something which happens when there is a problem with the Internet connection. It is not always something myLot can do much about because a 'connection' is much more than a simple one-to-one 'conversation' between your device and the myLot servers. myLotBugs is already aware of the problem.
The solution, (for the moment, at least)m is to refresh the page - often several times - until the discussion loads. You should then find that you will be able to open other discussions without an error until you haven't had any activity on the site for a period (5 mins? 10 mins? 15 mins? - I don't know!) and your existing 'hand-shake' with the server drops out.
This affliction seems to affect some accounts more than others.

@myklj999 Jeff Bezos, I believe (though that may not be his real name - I think that it's an anagram of "The Great Illuminatus, Heir Apparent to All Online Purchasing whose Number is 666", though with a different number and selection of letters).

@GoAskAlice I guess I really need to keep on refreshing it. I hope it is not my Internet connection speed. Thank you for your time.

I experience a few times earlier but luckily not off late. Seems like this glitch is always troubling some or the other users here.

@Shavkat Yes it can be really frustrating and annoying. We all go through this glitch some time or other. Once it starts it goes on for few days.
