No hacks!
The issue that started early this morning and kept us down for several hours had to do with a change I made to the server firewall yesterday afternoon. We are getting dozens of spam signups a day, and Bonzo, WBT, and I are going nuts trying to keep up (as we personally approve every account before they have the ability to post - keeping the incidences of spam VERY low here). Turns out that the way I went about attempting to block all registrations coming from certain countries was far more server intensive than I thought, and the firewall software was struggling to keep up, so after talking to the support team at our webhost I backed out the changes I made yesterday and am coming up with a new plan to keep the crazy spammers out. - Justin |
