The servers are being DDoS'd. When will this stop? No clue. They're working on fixing it. |

I guess their previous solution to stop this didn't work and the people doing the attacking are still at it. Trying to explain downtime like this to members who have no idea what the heck a DDoS attack is can be frustraiting and the downtime itself is embarrassing. |

This lack of access to our site is incredibly frustrating to the members of our club, who depend on accessing our website for regular updates and information about our club's activities. We have events several times each week, and our members need to find out about them. Having spent a lot of time convincing our club officials and members that this was the right platform to move our site to a few months ago, I am now in a position of regularly having to explain and justify why the site is unavailable. I'm sure that everything is being done to solve the problem, but it's still really annoying for those of us who just want to quietly host a forum and website! |

We have decided to once again re build our forum on another server number, i am in a situation now where my members are sick of trying to log in to mine at the moment. I have tried to let them know about it but they will simply go elsewhere, |

Oh crap Mozz what a bummer. Let me know when you get sorted. Do what I did and open an IF board and then convert it. It SHOULD go to a different server with any luck. What a pain this has been for you. |

This has obviously been a very unlucky year for s7/s11 forums. Judging from the announcements, this is the 4th DDoS attack in 2014. Hopefully it won't take much longer for the server to come back again, my forum has been down all day and the members are complaining. |

I'm sure they are doing their best to fix things. Nobody's board is any more important than anyone elses though and we're all Admins having to explain things to members in a way we see fit. If your members don't end up believing you concerning what's going on send them to this board to read things for themselves. |

Jaded thats a good idea. But you see we have had people bringing friends on. How do I explain that to the friends that could leave because they never got into the board cause its gone D: That makes us and our members look bad. Hell i have asked help from this site to even help me with other problems on the site (That I placed on tickets) Which 1 was a legit problem (not add-ons) and its been a week and still never was dealt with it -_- In which case I tried to contact them asking if everything was ok. My members have already been upset with me this just makes it that much worse. I also have the problem of add-ons which I can not find anyone to help me with either. Which 1 is crucial to members and 1 makes members feel better in this case. (In that order : Posting check up / Awards) in which case the awards would help the site emencly with what were doing now from my updates I could do. But I have not had any help from here D: And my members have been very upset with me so i have been trying to update things I can do with new productiveness and other stuff cause I just don't know coding. Im not saying Im better. Im trying to say HELP ME!!! This just makes my problem that much worse D: And worst part about it is it snowed in America. This is the time when most members are on the site! Mannnn D; |
