Well that's a plus! The problem with Cloudflare is we need it for protection but it doesn't work entirely well with dynamic content websites such as forums. Most new features they implement or are testing out, they enable them by default on everyone's account which is a poor choice. You can see why in this case as it caused undesirable effects.

The response from the developer feels it's the fault of a new feature Cloudflare is rolling out in which they enable on everyone's account by default.

They think disabling it will fix the problem which I've done. Is it working again?
Seems so

I didn't realize until a few days ago that the ClodTalk domain name wasn't working.

I don't know how long it's been that way for but definitely a while. I fixed that, and gave its forum its own red Clod inspired theme and branding. It needed a little bit of extra separation from the rest of the board since it's supposed to have its own identity after all.

I've added a 'jumpbox' to the board index page. I don't know if it's something worthwhile or not.
Also the Build of the Month forum got a little trophy.

Is it just me or are the times shown off by an hour since daylight savings?

Not on my screen. Post times shown are correct.

Ok cool, it must be on my end then!
Edit, yep I had the wrong time zone- not sure how that changed as it's only recently been wrong

The board just had an unplanned downtime of 3 hours.

I simply tried to install an antispam extension which pinned the servers CPU for some reason crashing everything.

It took me an hour and a half of manipulating things to get the board working long enough to uninstall the modification. I then took the opportunity to spend the other hour and a half doing some long neglected maintenance.

Indeed, having this site available is greatly appreciated.

You guys are very welcome! I enjoy doing it a great deal but not so much when a severe problem like this happens as it's a nerve-racking ordeal.

There was once a time when members had the ability to create their own polls, but for whatever reason it was eventually taken away. I believe I've come up with a solution that should work which is a dedicated forum just for polling.
