No, the attack was made through Cloudflare, hence turning on the DDoS protection mitigating it. 

There's only so much local software can do to mitigate an attack of this size. There is almost no advantage for us moving to LiteSpeed. 

The forum's actual IP is not, the Cloudflare IP is. 

Those are Cloudflare's IPs, not ours. 

Our actual current IP is not available on that site  

I stand corrected. Thank you for informing me.

Surely trying to DDOS the LMG forums is like trying to piss into a oncoming hurricane in defiance.  You can do it, but it wont end well.

I was thinking the person trying to DDOS LMG is probably someone whom the forum mods have booted out using the trusty ban hammer and somehow it's his/her way of retaliation.
