Was trying to mod skyrim again a few days ago.

 

I may have asked LL to load around 300 pages at once.

 

Could the site have considered it a DDOS attack or something ?

 

I'm really sorry if I were to be responsible of this mess.

I have previously (since yesterday) here on LL no adblocker used, for the simple reason, there were only a few and completely harmless.
Furthermore I never wanted to harm this website! all those who use an adblocker harm the website, no cookies, no advertising and thus financial loss for LL. :classic_wink:

If you take a look at the ads trackers used by LL you will notice it uses Google Analytics... Yeah, the same guys selling your information to corporations and governments while using profits generated by your privacy to lobby for their own agendas:

I mean, I don't want to get into politics in a site like LL, but spreading things like that is just...

 

Brave in the other hand is trying to reinvent internet advertising, where you can donate to sites directly or view non-invasive ads to earn money, which in turn you can use to donate back to sites you like.

I just hope they keep their promises and never turn into another Google.

 

Anyway, now I keep getting Cloudflare's captcha verification where I need to select certain pictures with a specific object in them. The problem is that those captchas are cancer and it takes many attempts before I finally get them right.

I don't mind the slowness, but Loverslab is always giving me 500-505 error when it's 11PM (UTC +8). I thought it was my adblocker, but I've already whitelist LL. However, using Internet Explorer (with adblock plugin), it works on one page, but other pages, gave me 500-505 error.

This could 100% be on my end (shitty mountain internet :/ )but, has anyone else had trouble loading embedded images in posts lately? A lot of them seem to be broken  ?

if you use imgur pictures, then yes!
but that's another story. :classic_wink:

 

Imgur.

after a short time this picture could disappear, because Imgur this blocked!

Part DDoS, part huge bugs in the newest version of IPB.

They said they changed servers along with IPB software updates. I wonder if it didn't break some filespaths here and here, so there's a lot to correct. I'd expect it to last for some more time.
