Delay logging in at DP forum

I find a lot of delay in logging in at DP. Are others too finding the same issue ?

 

The reason you have been seeing the error is because of a Massive Denial of Service attack that is happening to this forum. view this thread here http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=1498450

 

I thought the error was at my end (because I subscribe to one of the govt. controlled ISPs!) but it seems the problem is universal and hope it is fixed soon.

 

That's what it is! Thank you a lot Freethenoob for the link!
I have the same problem since yesterday. Do we just wait it out?

 

Yes, this has been happening to me lately alot as well - mainly Sunday and today, Tuesday.

I assumed it was the forum getting upgraded etc.

I tried to to access the site on a few different occasions and it either very slow and when i click on a thread or forum section it does not load and other times database error and cant see the site at all

Tried different browsers and that made no difference

Lets hope its not an ongoing thing and assume the powers at be will aware of this, probably trying to fix or reduce down time as much as possible.

NOW i know better, thanks for posting that thread which tells what is happening
