Is anyone else finding the forum has been VERY slow for the last few days?
Lots of timeouts?
Yes, like it is offline,
I thought it was my new network
Seems to have recovered now
and back to slow, but not glacial like it was before
Sorry for the slow performance.
Our server was being attacking since sat
We were being hitted 50000 times per min from 2 particular ips since sat.
Data centre told me it's around 1000 per second hits per mins from them
They keep calling our server with random different port number and end up drains all the server cpu and connections
Data centre is working closely to this issue.
Hope everyone can be patient and we hope to have this resolved asap
Thanks for the support
So a DDoS attack?

Thought it might have been something like that, or you had been rehosted somewhere smaller.
Best of luck with it.
Odd it is coming from just 2 IP addresses, would expect your host would have just banned them.
We been with the same data centre more than 10 years and we been even paid double for better CPU and server July last year
Yes DDos attack
Don't understand why they have to do that and what benefit they have when attacking web site like this
Some people do it for fun, else ransom (pay us to stop), or paid by a competitor, or vigilante or just practice for more lucrative targets.
