Title: Forum is so slow !
Post by: OmegaStarScream on October 17, 2016, 06:12:11 PM
Whether I'm trying to send a P.M , reply to a post/make a thread or simply visiting threads & sub sections page loading seem to be slow. I'm pretty sure It doesn't have anything to do with my internet as I'm browsing other website just fine. I'm the only one experiencing this or it's another DDOS attack ?

Same thing with me,forum is very slow for some time.When I try to log in it takes more then 1 minute so that it is probably DDOS attack.I hope that things will normalize as soon as possible.

Not just you, I also noticed slow loading. But, I believe now it is normal. You may consider locking this thread if you confirm it is just a temporary hiccup as it got auto-solved in minutes.

I also noticed that forum works slowly, but it was in short period. But it happens very often and become to be usual thing. Now forum works as it should be.

Actually it happens quiet offen these day,as of right now it is working and opening completely fine but some times in every 2-3 days since last one month it takes alot of time to even open a page and i am sure there is no problem with my net connection because at the same time other sites opens quiet quickly as normal.

I have never experienced slow connections to this forum! Sometimes it shows 403 error but nothing special...

oh good, so it is not just me. i came here to see why this is happening today.

what are these attackers trying to gain from DDOS attacking bitcointalk? did they make any demands?

Is that DDOS? Well I wasn't able to log in for a minute or two but eventually I accessed the forum again just now. I hope the new forum will be more secure and not experience downtime like what is happening here currently.

only the owner can give the correct answer to that.
but since loading pages is pretty slow and also i have to refresh the page 2-3 times to get out of the 504 error page, these are signs of DDOS attack AFAIK!

Earlier bitcointalk poling up some error 504 something like that and always error on loading pages i really don't know whats the main reason of this and it really fixed that fast all thanks to theymos , And wait for his to answer this kind of question and maybe it's because of your internet connection it's running smooth now.

Compared to when I posted this thread , It seems like the forum is more stable. In the meantime ,  I will keep the topic open In case theymos have some explanation for this.

Sometimes it loads like a normal website, but most of the time it is painfully slow.
