Site is back up...

Nothing changed that would have caused them to have trouble. The only thing I could think of is they were unlucky enough to hit just as I was rebooting the server after a tweak for speed and their cookie got corrupted. I would tell folks that if they are having trouble, test first with an incognito window, it will force a reload and you will have to log in. Do some hard refreshes of the browser ctrl+shift+r (or if they are using apple for some reason cmd+shift+r).
That is very interesting to me,....is there any way that this site could have had info stolen from it from this attack? Heres why........there are only two boards I check in on a daily basis,....this one and another site that has nothing to do with politics. Now here's the rub,....ever since we had the attack here I cant get into the other board I go to daily. It takes me to a page that says..."webserver is returning an unknown error, visit cloudfair.com for more info" . Yet when I go to that other board on my phone I get right in,...but still cant as of now on my main home laptop. So after reading your post I went there incognito and got right in! What are the odds of that happening at the exact same time our board was hit??? Way too high to be a coincidence.

My point is.........the other site I go to has ZERO to do with this one,...completely unconnected,....yet Cant get in ONLY on this computer and the problem started when this attack hit here. Doesn't sound real good to me..... :unsure:

I doubt it's just them. Who else is MIA today?

no. They did not attack this site.
 
Here is Grim Reaper posting... after server reboot... trying to figure out why she'd have trouble now... I've changed nothing.
When do we get the option to block reaction notifications? I have naked hunter blocked so I’m not flooded with her neg notifications but I’d still like to be able to see her nonsense.

When I finally have the server steady... I don't want to make software changes when it hasn't been stable for at least a week.
 
Ugh... It's like buying Nikes... A bunch of "Social Justice" Keyboard Warriors upset over slavery 150 years ago buying products made.by current slaves because they are "cool"...
I like my Mac because it’s like having a souped up iPad or iPhone on my desk. I even make and accept phone calls with it.
Much better than the pc I got rid of. :tongout:

FYI... I link my phone to my laptop and make and receive calls, send texts, copy and paste stuff from the phone to the computer and vice versa... all without paying full price for products made by Chinese slave labor.
