I keep getting this error message...
SmileyNY this is an error we cannot do much about unfortunately.
The developers and I have done a lot of debugging in order to get to the root of this and we found what was going on.
Your phone uses its network to "ask" the forum for content. This can be the forum listing, threads, topics anything really.
Now if this communication has a delay and your phone hasn't had the chance to send the correct amount of data to the forum, the web server of the forum will sever the connection. Your phone application then in turn will report what you are seeing.
Our timeout was 120 seconds and we have increased it to 240 which corrected most of the mobile app issues but apparently not yours. For some reason there is a delay from your phone to your mobile network, internet, and the forum server. That is one part of the communication between your mobile device and the forum that we don't have control of.
A suggestion would be to install the Forum Runner application and try to see if the application persists. The only caveat is that you won't be able to "thank you" from that application.
Let me know how it goes.
