Please post all forum bugs here

we are experiencing some strange behaviour the last day.
seems like someone is hammering requests to us...
resulting in some failsave actions, that sometimes let's the site hang :/
(see the spikes till nearly zero)
That should not happen, but i'm not sure how to mitigate such requests hammering - especially since it's not from one IP


edit
additionally ... sometime in the near future (some month) we have to change the server again - since we are using more and more storage; and i need to consolidate a few things to save money (running akiba isn't cheap - ask chompy, he's responsible for the money.

yay; it happened again.
we lost one of our EU servers ...

DNS is updating.

Is that why it sometimes can't connect unless I point my VPN at an Asian server?

You guys did it again ...
Because of some random shitty user posting something that is against nr. 9 of "THE RULES" we have lost our best working frontend.
It will not come back online; I won't argue with them about something that is clearly shit and obviously CASM. I'm using their services for other services, and want to continue.
Let's see how the other providers will handle that request ...

Feel bad & suffer in hell!

so ... expect flunky networks, unstable connections, ssl errors or anything else, that was handled on this server


edit:
tried to manually clean up the mess - way to many threads to manually check them
ergo: moved over 3000 Hentai-Manga Threads to the graveyard ... nice ...

update:
after the cleanup, the remaining uploader, did exactly the same!
WTF ey!

-> upload to the hentai manga will be restricted to people with an upload tag!

If they are not able to use the correct forum, i don't care anymore.
Seems like the part is quite empty, if you remove the 2 power-uploads ... well ...


update:
restored most of the threads in other locations.
