Incident Report - Updates

We experienced a 16-hour outage due to technical issues that were identified after I reported unusually slow loading times to our hosting provider. Unfortunately, during their attempt to fix the problems, they made a mistake that resulted in the site going offline.

It is possible that we might have lost half a day's worth of posts.

Apologies.

Thanks for the update. I was thinking this was some DDOS attack related to the Israel war.

There were some vulnerability at the host's end. Which caused the slow down.

The host provider noticed high resource usage issues on our end. It is unclear what caused them. Since it is a shared host, they suspended us without informing us. The issues have been fixed now.

Apologies for the downtime.

We have made some upgrades to the forum in response to issues reported by the hosting provider.

Please report any unstable issues that you may encounter.
