Moderators, please help

Help with what exactly?

 

DDOS means you get a ton of simultaneous network requests from all over the world in an attempt to bring your web server to its knees. There's not much you can do against that. No matter how many resources you throw at it, the attacker probably has more. You can hide behind Cloudflare (as the forum is doing) in an attempt to buffer the brunt of it, but there are limits to how much they can do.

Remember to either quote or @mention others, so they are notified of your reply

Moderators, please fix this

Whenever there's a dos attack, it's a matter of when CloudFlare kicks in. It might be a bit slow after that, but generally it's ok. I've gotten a few 500 codes but a reload fixes it

Either @piratemonkey or quote me when responding to me. I won't see otherwise

Put a reaction on my post if I helped

What I say is from experience and the internet, and may not be 100% correct
