    Site is zipping along now! Is it my imagination or is it even faster than before, or is it just a consequence of the logged in user count being lower due to people having given up in the last few days and not discovering that things have improved?

    Anyway, whatever the reason is, let's hope it continues and whatever puerile, spotty faced oik was responsible gets his/her comeuppance.

    Yes.

    I have been unable to log in on mobile since the site came back online.

    I've consequently, not been using the site since it came back online.

    I've read on this thread that you should clear your cache and then log in no problem. Worked for me :)

    I was using incognito windows at work. I don't know how that relates to the cache though.

    Hey there folks, some updates...

    Speed - as most of you have already reported, we seem to be running at a decent speed now, we'll keep an eye on that of course to make sure it stays that way.

    Log In - this is our current highest priority work in progress. Long story short, VBulletin's security measures aren't thrilled with having CloudFlare to contend with in front of all our traffic, so we're working on finding the safest and most reliable method of getting the relevant bits of software talking to each other correctly.

    Search - It'll probably be tomorrow at the earliest before that's getting looked at properly.

    Automated Emails - they've been causing us to get flagged on Spamhaus (an anti-spam service), so we have to start trickling out the mails rather than sending a massive burst and getting ourselves banned again.

    [edit]
    Double Posts (he says after deleting the duplicate that appeared beneath this post) - not sure what exactly is causing them, but yes, it's very frustrating. It's not quite as high a priority as the other issues I've listed though.

    We'll keep you updated here as best we can when we check anything off the list.

    By the way guys, thanks for all your efforts in getting the site up and running again so quickly. It's easy to forget that there are people working awfully hard behind the scenes.

    Fast on the tablet, still just white background, blue text and unclickable links on the phone and somewhere in between on the PC. All very strange.

    Just had a wait of a few seconds for good old b-static.net, first time today, I'd hoped I'd seen the last of that hold up. Had always wondered if a DDOS attack on that domain alone could bring down boards.ie.

    Was about to say the same thing. Definitely slowed down over the last half hour or so.
