OMG! Is everything going to be okay? Can we expect more downtime? Please answer!
Probably there will be periodic downtime until they stop or until I figure out how to mitigate the attack. You should make a thread with the details. Perhaps programmers would help you solve the problem. I know I would take a look and try to come up with solution. Theymos is a programmer. The site has been under multiple DDoS attacks. There isn't much that can be done that hasn't already is done.

Are we attack this period? I can't access the site in several minutes even I have a stable internet connection, I tried in http://www.isitdownrightnow.com/ and it is down at that time and just for a while I'm able to access it again. Is everyone experienced it also?

But my question whether bitcoin talk is not secured with cloudflare?
You never asked about cloudflare. People here cannot read your mind, so you actually do need to ask what you want to know. And no, Bitcointalk does not use cloudflare. This is because CloudFlare can become a Man-In-The-Middle and risk user privacy and security. and every 30 minutes bctalk is already recovering and just 5 minutes later bctalk is down again
That's just the nature of a DDoS attack. Sometimes they take things down, sometimes the countermeasures work, and sometimes it just slows the site down a lot.

It seems like the DDoSing has stopped. The forum isn't slow or crashing every five minutes.
Honestly, you don't need CloudFlare. Just set the server to require captcha input after x% server load or lag.

I guess they're going to do it every day at around this time until I figure out how to stop them... I've made some progress on that front, but it's not done yet.
If anyone is an actual expert in Linux networking (ie. the term "GRE tunnel" is familiar to you), I could use your help in figuring some of this stuff out.

It was absolutely down for the last 2.5 hours. No connection at all. Just now was able to log in and surprised how long it was just timed out for.

Theymos, were there any demands linked to these attacks? I know that in the past, when forum were DDoSed attackers wanted to extort 10 BTC. This time is different? Or do they want money as well? Someone is bored/has grudge against bitcointalk or something?

Maybe there is no DDoS attack, and the forum is being taken down for hours at a time for days in order to cause the signature spammers to lose interest in spamming the forum, and to look for income opportunities elsewhere.

Is theymos is a big treat to them or whatsoever since theymos said there is no demand about these attack, i am thinking they are just a group of kids trying to do this DDoS thing or they are owner of another crypto related forum trying to get some members when main btc forum is down

I'll be glad to help. My testing computer & router farm is temporarily in storage due to moves, but my brain is available. The further discussion probably has to switch to private messages for security reasons.

Instead of Cloudflare use an DDoS protected Reverse Proxy IP. The Cloudflare Free Plan is not helping at all, to stop an big attack. Edit: It seems you switched to Cloudflare and forgot to add SPF Records which fail to deliver mails to most known email provider. However, I do not receive notifications of Bitcointalk.
