Title: What is Cloudflare?
Post by: coinyoo on November 22, 2015, 12:55:19 PM
I am wondering what cloudfare is? I am not really familiar with all the tech stuff. Is it a full cloud hosting service where I can host my own app or is it just a spam prevention service?

its a dns provider. if you have a slow site, you can use their dns to make it fast.
somehow what fravia said is also true.

The CloudFlare accelerates any website online. Your website is a part of the CloudFlare community, its web traffic is routed through our intelligent global network. CloudFlare-powered websites see a significant improvement in performance and a decrease in spam and other attacks.

CloudFlare will cache static content such as images, CSS, and other files on your site automatically. Best of all, it doesn’t cache the HTML so you’re site will always see the most updated content. You can even continue using your existing WordPress cache plugin in conjunction with CloudFlare without conflict.

Google Analytics is great, but it won’t give you some of the neat insight that CloudFlare’s Analytics displays such as threats, search engine crawlers, or how much time your visitors have saved because your site loads faster.

It's a service that helps you create topics with one account
so you can reply back to them with other accounts (to increase forum ranks)

Setting up the pins so you can knock them down.. account farming in the off-topic section.

Lobbing softballs over the plate slowly so you can knock them out of the park.

Why ?

To manipulate coins.
To Troll with out fear of repercussions.
To farm sig adverting campaigns.
To sell the accounts.
To post shit coins.

Plenty of reasons and none of them good.
Pulling this type of crap anywhere in the world would get you a ban.. but not here LOL

As a matter of fact Staff encourage it.
I have a bookmark somewhere where they said..
If you have something controversial to say create new account.
So you must think oh well Spoetnik must have taken that out of context.
It was said on a topic where we were all asking for rules to limit account creations
because it was being abused by coin cloners etc.
And that is what we were told.

Welcome to Bitcointalk.  ::)

Hi

It is a CDN, which helps websites manage traffic

Thanks
