  • Is the VPS shared or dedicated?

          I agree ... hickups and times where the site was not reachable en masse

          • The VPS is on shared hardware. Not sure if the problem is something I can fix without moving to a new host. I’ve blocked most of the bots but only helps a little... the bad ones are constantly changing their footprints. But not really enough hits from them to account for how slow things are.

                Sounds like your Internet really sucks. Poly is loading way slower than other sites for me, but nothing like 10 minutes.

            • It's off and on ... server is getting hammered by various bad intentions.

              • Makes me wonder what other sites are on this server. SpambotPartyZone.Com?

                • Can’t you get free DDoS protection from somebody?

                  Like Project Shield or Cloudflare?

                  Iplists.firehol.org might also help

                  • I don’t know why CloudFlare doesn’t catch it. They charge for rate limiting.

                    • anybody that chooses to DDOS this forgotten ****hole is low on the rank of internet bad-boys or is just testing their software. Go shut down Reddit or 4Chan then come back here and brag, boy, I am AAHZ from Forumwarz.

                      • PROTIP: Forumwarz DID invade 4Chan and I DID personally attack and lead the dismantling of another forum by myself. Get your stripes up, youngsters.

                          • Here's how that **** looks on the Real IRC rAid boards:

                            Tom: "So what did you do today Steve?"
                            Steve: "I trolled Donald Trump into a rage on Twitter!"
                            Tom: "Good stuff!"
                            Steve: "What about you Tom?"
                            Tom: "Oh me and my Skype Crew just shut down Kingdom of Loathing for 2 days. We roll 30 deep."
                            Steve: "WINNING! OK What did you accomplish today Pete?"
                            Pete: "me and my 4 friends just DDOSED Apolyton for about 15 minutes!"
                            *DEAD SILENCE*
                            Pete: "Dammmit I just got booted from the IRC. Maybe it is my connection"
