I was wondering why I would have a few days in a row when I couldn't get connected. Thought I was being blocked. I would accept fewer whistles and bells just to be able to open the site. I thought you were going out. |

By Nigel Forum Admin - nigel@wetlook.com Tue 09/08/11 02:20:26 GMT Website: www.wetlook.com I removed the flags temporarily from the main and archive indexes to reduce the connections to the server, as people we getting blocked by the DDOS filter too easily. They are still displayed when you view a message. I'll be putting all the images on another server in due course, so they will show up again on the main index.
In case anyone is getting locked out still, the DDOS firewall locks out IPs for 10 mins if they have too many 'active' connections, so if this is happening to you, try opening messages just a few at a time rather than loads at a time, and then reading them afterwards. Also beware of browser startup, if you have a load of messages in tabs that get reloaded when your restart the browser, it will make loads of simultaneuous request, and again you risk getting blocked for 10 mins.
Obviously, your browser/PC/ISP should be caching a lot of the images, but check this is correctly configured.
