Today and Yesterday, when I try to go on Gamingforce.us, I been getting a error page by Cloudflare which says GF is having a error 522, and the website is offline, or having problems,
but I can use GF by using a proxy server website to use a different IP/location.
I looked error 522 up on Cloudflare at
https://support.cloudflare.com/entries/23670002-Error-522 , and it says it is a problem with your webhost's server or software.
Here is the error page I get.

First I'm hearing of this, I'll see whats up.
I also had that error when I installed Cloudflare on my new blog. Removing it fixed the problem.

I did put a recommended plugin on our wordpress, would removing that fix this problem?
It didn't for mine, but you can try.
I contacted my host when it happened, and they said everything was okay from their side and that I should contact cloudflare.
Then I contacted cloudflare and they said the issue was with the host.
I deactivated cloudflare and removed the plugin but after 12hrs the error was still here. So I changed my nameservers back to that of my host and deleted my site on cloudflare.

*Sighs.* That's how I see it going with me.
Try removing the plugin and see how it goes.

plugin removed, not really needed anyways. But your story is pretty much how things will play out.

I'm still getting the error when I use my regular internet browser without a proxy server website, but I can access GF with a proxy server website on my web browser.
I tried flushing the DNS, clearing the history, switching browsers, and using different computers on my internet connection, and I still get the same 522 error.
I suspect it is a problem with Cloudflare being slow on my ISP.

The error ended up being a old cron job taking up the CPU usage making things run slow plus some cloudflare IPs weren't white listed. All should be good now.
Makes me wonder what caused it on my blog. Might be my dropbox sync.

according to cloudflare the most likely reason are resource hog jobs that would slow the server making the time out happening or the host not having the IPs white listed. I kind of had both going on for mine.
Not experienced this myself at all.
