Not noticed anything here!

I take this back, I'm very much noticing it right now...!

I keep seeing this message at the bottom of the page, in case it means anything to you:

[[Template core/front/global/footer is throwing an error. This theme may be out of date. Run the support tool in the AdminCP to restore the default theme.]]

I've made Phil aware of the issues on the site at the moment, he'll be taking a look in a short while, hold tight everyone!

Forum is very slow again, over 1000 users online at this time of the morning, and the forum set a new record for most users ever at 1am apparently.....

Make that over 2,000 users...

Ugh, the bots always find us in the end ☹️

I assumed that this was something to do with the mobile App (and that it needed an update, I just couldn't work out how to do that). I cleared my storage, but it didn't make a difference!

Definitely seems to be an issue with bot traffic! A complete pain, as I keep giving up loading up the site. Hopefully the bot situation calms down soon! 😊

Thankfully back down to a much more sensible number now and the site seems to be fine for me!

i fear the esc fans found us because they want to know more information about druk dra omggggggg

Site is "stable" at the moment yet bot numbers are growing...?

looks like they are having a good go and testing our server capacity

On a serious note, ive setup a whole suite of ban filters so will see tomorrow how this evolves!

@Philip

It looks like some individual members are having issues getting on.

The forum has been ok for me all evening but e.g. @uhsting says they haven't been able to get on for over an hour. Not sure what is happening there but just to make you aware!

Thanks do you know what the site says? Do they get no page, slow page, can’t login?

They say it says the following:

"ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT"

Should be fixed. Looks like your IP was banned with the setup we have to block bots. Will look to tweak

aight lemme try

well it doesn't really work x for me when i go back to without vpn i can access buzzjack for a few seconds and then i struggle to connect again

vpn lasts slightly longer but then it stops working, which i have to disable vpn and then enable vpn which then works again for a few seconds

How strange. Must be getting caught up in the banning. Going to relax rules

adjusted times - let me know if this solves things or you get caught in the net. One more thing to try this evening
