I Need Some Help

[_flagellum]

Whenever I try to join the LMS or LOTR servers, i get an error message and then when I try again it says "End of Stream." Today is the first time this has happened. I have tried 3 or 4 times on each server today and the same thing happens every time.

The error message says:

Failed to login: java.io.IOException: Server returned HTTP code: 503 for URL: http://session.minecraft.net/game/joinserver.jsp?user=_Flagellum&sessionId=token%3Ab54153c21fcb40f280aba68aab2d428f%3A2c75d3bbd8e84845b46b41f73197faec&serverId=-1c18c4d4f31f4837bc132b2d93257aa3abf0eef4

EDIT: I just figured out that this is happening for any servers I try to join. Does anyone know why this is happening?

This is to do with a major minecraft crash. im not gonna pretend to be an expert, but basically notch has been having some pretty bad problems with servers in the last couple of days and my understanding is, every hour or so there seems to be a tiny period here u can join and play on the server and u wouldnt know that theres anything wrong because there is no lag, its just no1 new will join. i know all this cos i managed to join yesterday and there were 6 ppl on for about 1 hour with no joins . after that, u can leave but u cant rejoin again. it's basically a one way system, u can leave but not join. my suggestion to avoid it: stay logged into the server

and its not like every hour or so, its random, if my experiences are correct

Ok. Thanks for the info. Has Jeb said anything about fixing it? And what can I do to prevent this?
