Title: Forum issues
Post by: RedRotors on November 19, 2013, 04:07:40 pm

Hi guys,

The forum had some issues. The account was suppended because too much bandwidth was drained. Look
like an attack. I banned a lot of IPs ranges, so if your friends cannot connect anymore, let me know.

Hope this fix will hold.

Marc

Have you all heard of Cloudflare? I use them for my sites. It's free for the core service which deals with blocking known attacks plus adds their caching CDN in front. Seriously improves site speed plus filters out attacks. Highly recommended!!!
