Strange message when entering the Scratch Website

For awhile, everytime I tried to enter the website, it said something like this : "OMG. CANNOT CONNECT TO ????? ?????????. TRY AGAIN LATER." I don't remember some of the words, but that dosn't seem like a message a moderator would write. What was that message I kept seeing?  yikes

Maybe the server crashed or they were making some maintenance.

No one would hack Scratch. There would be no point. Hackers tend to hack bank accounts, not kids websites.

Re: Strange message when entering the Scratch Website

it's probably either A) a virus, or B) something is terribly wrong with your internet. I doubt the site is hacked. Honestly people, who would want to hack a CHILDREN'S WEBSITE?

actually, you'd be wrong there. people who need a life hack EVERYTHING they find. but i find it highly unlikely that that was a hack message.

Re: Strange message when entering the Scratch Website

The message is "Omg. Cannot connect to memcache!" blah blah

And it was probably written by andres when he was freaking out because of memcache errors. So his pc said OMG in his place, you see XD

Re: Strange message when entering the Scratch Website

I once got a message from somebody without a name for one of my projects. When I looked at the project there was no comment and I couldn't click on the persons name to find out who it was because they didn't have one and they didn't have a picture. I didn't know that guests could comment. Maybe there some random comments going around from hackers ?

Find someone post count. Click posts under username. Find number of pages. Times that by 40 for min and 60 for max and you have a rough estimate of post count.

I am confident that wasn't a moderator or one of the Scratch Team. They always post in good grammar.
