I keep receiving cloudflare errors half of the time I use the site

I don't know if it's my internet, Cloudflare, or MCM, but half of the time I either use the site or type in the site's URL, this pops up

Had it all day also. Ask's me to verify with a recaptcha and it does nothing

This was about a separate issue before the site went down with the recaptcha stuff where my site would just not be working for like a minute and then work

Yeah I was receiving this all day as well.

I believe that this happens when the website gets booted/ddosed, at least that's what some owners of other sites told me.[DOUBLEPOST=1558818402][/DOUBLEPOST]Maybe that's why it randomly started to ask for human verification.

I'm pretty sure they're still working on the site. Everything is fixed for me pretty much

The staff need to be way more vocal then

Correction, most of it was downtime, however there was a 10-15 minute maintenance window for updates which started around 10 minutes after the downtime concluded, however the forum was mostly online during that time excluding some services such as search.

We are aware of the cause and it was not a (D)DoS attack, but rather related to the provider and communication. The server itself remained on throughout the downtime, however could not be connected to from the outside world.

Mass Cloudflare captchas stopped as soon as maintenance concluded, however high risk users will still receive it. For some, they won’t get any challenges at all! The captcha during the downtime was manually activated to ease transitions.

Thank you for the update :tup:

Imagine a site with 165,000 users and close to 4,000,000 posts being disabled for maintenance without warning :tup:

How dare you criticize Mc-Market for not doing something any other professional business would have done! It’s not like they have a Twitter they barely use lying around anywhere...

I thought it was just me and this foreign public WiFi but maybe not...

This issue has since been resolved as Mr Jayson has said. Apologies for the issues.

I'll move this to the bug report archives, thank you.
