Community forum problems

[Cleoriff]

I know @MI5 started his 'Lonely' thread yesterday.... as he was the only one who managed to get online ...but I thought I would start this one in the hope that management may be able to advise us about Forum issues

Many of the regulars are aware of problems experienced when trying to access the forum over the past 2 days

For me it started on Monday 25th. All ok first thing, then unable to log on for about an hour 8-9am

I had problems again on the Monday evening ...no access from 4-7 pm.

Yesterday (Tuesday) I was 'locked out' from about 4pm till 9pm.(Along with the majority of others I suspect...except MI5) Twitter was alive with the sound of complaints

It was stated that GiffGaff had the same problem.

So a couple of questions from me....

Is this related to Mondays network outage?

Has the forum been compromised?

Is it likely to happen again soon?

Is that when you click on the unread posts link (top right hand corner) @jonsie ?

All dodgy ip's have been blocked

What do you mean? Is it if they dont recognise the IP address?

Hi guys, thanks for being patient with the access issues here. In order to fix that, we applied some static pages to prevent further problems. The issue was fixed quickly and we were able to remove the static pages, giving back full success. This will be why some of you have had some access issues today.

Do let me know if you're still having problems
