GEFL site down

[Yoda]

Attack of the China bots again. Redid the robots.txt file again and looking into just blocking all ips from China period.

Site will be back up once I can get someone from webhost on the phone.

Same thing this time?

[Yoda]

Not sure. Checking to see just what exactly is causing the issues.

Amount of executed PHP scripts for yesterday: 424264!!!!!

I'm sure it's the draft app.

Really? That seems to be several orders of magnitude off. That sounds like an attack.

[sidthelid]

down again?

[Yoda]

yes, the bot attack put us on a kind of moderation. Now, anytime there is a spike in server usage, we get shut down.

Did we just roll back a full round?

[Yoda]

pretty much- yes.

[Alf]

Down again as of 9.34 CET this friday.

[DeepPost]

At least the draft was finished, no rollback, right?

[sidthelid]

So what's happening?
