Regarding Downtime

[Deleted member 29780]

Hello all,

You may have noticed our site was unavailable these past few days. This was due to an unfortunate DDoS attack. We are actively working to improve our DDoS mitigation tactics and utilizing more resources from Cloudflare. However, no data was compromised.

You may experience disruptions trying to access Forum Promotion over the next few weeks while we adjust to see what works and what doesn't.

We apologize for the inconvenience. We hope to get back to normal operation as soon as possible.

Glad we're back up!

I am getting an Access denied page on Cloudflare via my regular IP address.

Had to open up my Opera browser (which has a built-in VPN) to get on the forum.

I'll take a look into this

Glad I can access the site. Was worried earlier today.

I thought I was banned for unknown reason because the message said Administrator restricted access. 😳

Hopefully this is getting fully mitigated! Seems completely frustrating. Glad y’all are pushing through!
