Did gaydar crash this afternoon?

So I'm logged into the gaydar chatrooms and all of a sudden things seem to grind to a halt. Sometimes this happens to me when my old computer can't keep up and runs out of memory, so I log out and try logging in again. Gaydar itself seems to be working I but can't get back in to the chat rooms. This hasn't happened to me before on gaydar. Before it ground to a halt I had noticed that the "central london cruising" room had over 460 people in it, perhaps the system is reaching some kind of limit? There were over 4600 people online in London alone.

Being unable to get into the gaydar chat room, for curiosity I log into gay.com and I'm surprised to see well over 150 people in the london chat rooms. I had thought that gaydar had a virtual monopoly in the UK.
