Site problems

[jgilj]

Back to slower than molasses loading and viewing site. Some of the times it shows my IP as blocked, banned. Anyone else having the problem or is it on my end?

Sorry, been addressing this since yesterday. We're being hit by spam bots from Ukraine to the search queries and eating up our database resources.

I figured we were under attack again, thanks for all you do.

When someone is in Queue and I have to decide are they in or spam basted out, it amazes me people from Ukraine, India, and Africa are trying to get in.
So I protect our borders and %99 of the time they are deleted.

I think "StarLink" has provided the Key to the spammers. It's a problem on the other place too.

@HellcatFan thanks for all you do, it has to be a royal PIA.

I was also seeing the same message for myself. At least I was still able to access the administrator panel to apply some fixes.

I thought something was going on. I received an identity verification request when I opened the site this morning. Good idea! Thanks!
