Periodic FT issues (crash, Cloudflare, database errors) - DDoS attack, cf wiki
I've been getting the database error page constantly until a couple minutes ago. I think it started about an hour ago for me and was consistent across various fora and threads that I tried.
Yet when I scam the main page of some very active fora, I notice posting gaps of only about twenty minutes.
Doesn't the site go down for everyone simultaneously?
BTW, I'm using an ipad2 with safari.

I know there is heavy Denial of Service workload today but I'm getting more than my fair share of database errors in the last hour, so from say 11:30 GMT.

Keep getting CloudFlare DDOS Screen
Just today when I initially visit flyertalk.com (by opening a new tab and going to the site) I keep getting a "Checking your browser..." from CloudFlare DDOS for a few seconds. What's going on?

I’ve been getting it when changing Pages in the same Thread. As for trying to amend/repair Trip Reports, forget it for today ... simply unworkable.
CloudFlare has also now infested another one of IB’s brands ,., PPRuNe.
I’m getting very tired of waiting 5 seconds for this disruptive application to do its work whilst browsing IB’s Forums.

Same for me this morning, and both my phone and pc. The CloudFlare prompt is super annoying, as is the database error when opening certain pages.

Not sure whether a thread merge is appropriate, as this Cloudflare thing isn’t ‘redesign’ as such. Just IT people at play, for some reason or other. Also happening on at least one other IB Forum.
