I have found the Site to be very slow this morning, but I can get to my other Sites with no issues, anyone else having the same issue?

Thanks Al,

It seems to be coming and going. I wonder if we had another bots attack?

Yes, it was slow for me this morning, too. Seems to have recovered now. Might have been just heavy Internet traffic, nothing to do with RHP servers specifically.

@moonbus,
I had thought Russ had said something about a bots attack last time it happened?

Painfully slow.

Couple of hours ago seemed fine and now 9.00am Australia time it would be quicker to post my moves by snail mail.

As Rusty said; I assume it is the bots mining.

It's really slow - I logged on a couple of hours ago and it was bad so I gave up. Just logged in again and it seems to have got worse 🙁

DDoS

In computing, a denial-of-service attack is a cyberattack in which the perpetrator seeks to make a machine or network resource unavailable to its intended users by temporarily or indefinitely disrupting services of a host connected to a network. Denial of service is typically accomplished by flooding the targeted machine or resource with superfluous requests in an attempt to overload systems and prevent some or all legitimate requests from being fulfilled.

Yes, in fact it is even slower now than it was this morning. There was a short period late morning my time that it was a little quicker, but quite snail like now.

Same here. Wondered if I’d lose a few games in timeout?

As well as posting in 'site ideas' I have sent feedback to Russ suggesting timeouts be suspended until the issue is resolved.

There are a few sites I go to that were slow as molasses too.

Wondering if some backbone system went down somewhere.

Was okay enough once the SB started though.

Not just RHP.
