Welcome to the forum. Although you can post in any forum, the USA forum is here in case of local regs or laws

What's been going on with the forum then?

Still actively fighting. We seem to be winning again right now.
 
Mines still being very intermittent. I need my forum fix!!!
 
They're not going to give up just yet.

So I'm protecting the forums for the long-term. This isn't something we'll undo next month once it goes quiet. We'll need this protection forever now.

So main thing is get the forums stay online. Then workaround everything we've had to lose feature-wise for the sake of gaining stability.

That'll be a DNS cache issue.

Unfortunately every time we're offline for a bit, if your IPS or network or whatever takes a cache of the site while it's down, sometimes it'll load you that version even when it's actually back online.

Those sorts of things just iron themselves out as new cache versions are taken.

But we have been offline a here and there today since about 5pm
 
Thats a notable botnet....
i was under the impression most were being kept under 25/30k to stop em being noticed?

not to mention its taken rather awhile to amass that many bots!
Unless its someone with a bitmining community?

I cant even see why you would be targetted dan!
Pretty extreme even from a competitor!!

hope you get sorted.
