I’ve had to disable a few things and add some temporary challenges to access the site until the attack subsides

The bot attacked was still active this morning - over 15,000 visitors at one point

You may occasionally find when this happens I have to turn on some extra protection which means you get a title screen prior To accessing the forum, Tapatalk is disabled and the ad banner at the top errors - don’t worry, you can still use the forum its just some extra measures to block the bots

Hopefully back to normal today just keeping an eye on things

And the attack happened again - similar time to yesterday. So again, keep with me, just disabled a few things again and set up
Some extra verification
