Was it a DDoS or what? I can't imagine what kind of a l33t h4x0r would choose to attack a prog database/forum.

It seems both MMA and PA are slowly dissolving under the weight of bugs. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I had meant to ask if M@X's other cash making enterprises were experiencing this as well.... the jazz site lucky enough to be escaping this reign of evil A.I. terror?

Here's a new one. Well it's happened before but i don't recall reporting it. For some mystifying reason when i go to a band page or an album page for that matter, some unseen forces want to take me directly to the Amazon shopping part of the page. It all just happens spontaneously and when i scroll up or down it takes me back. It doesn't always happen but it is quite persistent today.
OMG!! Have robots taken over?!!!!!! We need better robot control here. I'm so scared i could pee all over myself

Yep, same here. Ads on certain pages "pull" you from what you want to look at, to the ad. Unreal. (By the way, Puppy, your ELO review was really good) |

Now the site is wiggin' out totally. On the homepage it insists on going to a certain part of the page and sometimes it can't decide and pings back and forth between two spots. It's the weirdest thing i've ever seen on here!

Since late yesterday can't get to login on the main site or admin page with a message about VBScript error (No problem on the forum) |

Literally was just about to post the same thing, Quinino!
Both the main site page and the exclusive `Super Secret Sex Dungeon Lined With Hookers and Drugs' Admin only section!   Shhhh, it's a secret...

For the past 2 days I've experienced so little captchas, virtually none today, that I'm starting to think something has changed (by M@x, possibly) - or is it just me?
Any thoughts ? |

9/4 was one of the worst reCaptcha days in many weeks for me. Nothing since.
That being said, the entire internet is sailing along better today than it has in weeks.

I've been craptcha'd more times in the last few days than the last few months. This thing is f**king this site over. Why can't it just f**k off and die. Go infiltrate another site. What good is it doing anyway ?? It does a great job pissing me off

Just for a personally update about this site. I used to have all these problems as well. Once i updated my operation system for my Mac all of these problems went away. I do get the occassional "Are you a robot?" box checking action but other than that this site has been relatively problem free. I highly recommend keeping totally current on software updates and the like. Of course this is only my experience. A room of one is a lonely one indeed on a chat forum so i hope you all can weather this storm

Craptcha systematically denies me access to my first post of the day on any subject (Collab zone incl), but afterwards, it's often absent, whether I post YT or emoticons I must say that the frigging thing is certainly testing my love for this place.   |
