the lobby server connection has encountered an error 2002

[Thamorian]

Ah yes, the links. Trouble is, there are ALWAYS links there for one reason or another.
To be honest though, I didn't bother checking those because I thought there was an issue with MY game or computer. Again, error 2002? How am I supposed to know what that means?

I feel more, "Well, you should have read harder," coming.

Does this mean the forums are just meant to shame ppl
or are they actually designed to help provide quick answers to confused players? For both hard and EASY answers.

Original posters question on what error 2002 was answered in a polite and respectful manner manner and the following questions were answered in the same polite and respectful manner. You just came in and then complained about not knowing what the error was and acted like all this was SE's fault for not making it more obvious that there was going to be maintenance today. Then you berate people who think reading notifications and updates should be something you do. Berating people who informed the ones complaining that there's been news updates about this since February.
