I think some of the donations need to be spent to fix the forum. Title: Re: Why does the forum keep going offline? Post by: bittyweb on February 23, 2014, 01:51:18 PM It is because, the server is down i hope.
The mods or development is fixing i hope. And i recommend them to change the forum script from smf to vbulletin. It will be more cool for them. Title: Re: Why does the forum keep going offline? Post by: theymos on February 23, 2014, 03:08:06 PM The forum has periodically been experiencing DoS attacks over the last couple of days. We're looking into options to fix this, though it's apparently difficult to protect against bandwidth-sapping DoS attacks without trusting a CDN service with your HTTPS key, and I'm not going to do that.

Post by: Sydboy on February 23, 2014, 05:20:57 PM I just got the SMF database error message just then.
After 2 reloads it was working again. I got the same thing a couple of days ago for an hour or so. Besides those minor inconveniences the site has been working fine like normal.
