Forum Feedback TE Offline Issues

[Safin]

Hello,

We have been getting some low level DOS attacks on TE. Unfortunately not much can be done about it apart from waiting for them to pass(or banning the IP). As such, as and when we experience any such attacks, we will take down TE without any notice. Please cooperate. Both me and QF are very busy so we cannot answer each and every thread made on the topic.

Inconvenience is regretted.

Server Guys not helping you ?

we would naturally be talking to them, won't we?

OK guys here is an update.

Inspite of our best efforts, the loads are shooting up as soon as we open the forums.

Here is a typical result:

Page generated in 19.59866 seconds with 11 queries [Server Loads: 27.51 28.87 : 22.21]

Unfortunately at this moment we have no choice but to keep the forums closed.

Well, do what you must do, even if it goes online, as long as TE comes back online I am pretty sure people are ok with it.

Is it still under attack ?? Is the attack IPs from Malaysia/Singapore or using the TOR Network??

We are stable for now.
