Has the site been slowing down for anyone else?

This is the way the world ends. Not with a bang but a whimper.
Yeah. It's going offline every few minutes.

Either new host problems or we're under another DDOS attack.

Do you think they mean to attack us or another site using this host?

It seems like every few minutes the site will slow down and pretty much stop working for a couple minutes. Other websites seem to run just fine when this site slows down, so I'm wondering if I'm the only one getting this issue.

Am I?

The site is under regular DDoS attack, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Denial-of-service_attack

In computing, a denial-of-service (DoS) or distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack is an attempt to make a machine or network resource unavailable to its intended users.

It's clearly a targeted attack at the domain, as it has persisted across multiple hosts.

Basically the server is being overloaded which slows everything down until it crashes and goes offline. But so far we haven't completely gone offline, probably because of the new host.

This is Cheat. I'm using this account because my ISP is slow as shit and hasn't changed the IP for Sep7agon.

As far as I know, we are still getting DDoS'd every so often. This host seems more resilient than the last, so it's not going completely down. I am working on contacting the new host about this issue to see if they can block overwhelming requests and keep everything from slowing down.

If they can block incoming UDP and ICMP traffic for the site, that would go a long way to mitigating the attacks.

Sometimes when you go to load up topics it slows down I have noticed. Maybe it's just me though.

If I'm not here, I'm doing photography. Or I'm asleep. Or in lockdown. One of those three, anyway.

The current titlebar/avatar setup is just normal.
Still faster than Bungie's site for me.

And clearly someone has a grudge against us. Who knows? Maybe someone back at Bungie loves us and wants us back <3.
