Forum being load-spammed - INPROGRESS - SERVER DOWNTIME can be in next days

[Stratego (dev)]

There server runs in 100% because some bots are making very many requests to the forum from various sources.
bad news is it slowens the in-game requests too so you might experience slower game listings and such.

I have contacted the server provider to suggest solution, but until that i might move the forum to a different link, here:
http://www.androidutils.com/forumx/

so on previous URL-s it will not accessible sometimes, please copy and save this link for you so you can log in and post when i have moved the forum teporarily to this URL. (this will only happen until we find a solution to restrict these spammer-sources)

sorry 4 inconvenience.

[Stratego (dev)]

ok, it seems solved i have banned a few IP-s from sinagpore that seemed too frequent, and load went down.

[Stratego (dev)]

ok, the load is always coming back - that is why sometime u saw the forum move to "forum1" url instead of "forum"

so now i have ordered a new server space so i will move all forum traffic there and forum spammers will not make server load pressing down the most important game backend.

Ok.

[Stratego (dev)]

in upcoming days you can experience full serverdowns (i mean the forum).

https://www.androidutils.com/forum1/

[Stratego (dev)]

i am working on the first (domain redirection)

the second will not work anymore.

[Stratego (dev)]

Ok. The first one is fixed . Please confirm

[Badnorth]

Works perfectly.

[Stratego (dev)]

i just see not perfectly - because the url no longer ageofstrategy.net when you load the page (as it is redirected).

so i will try polishing it more.

[Stratego (dev)]

ok it is working now please try ageofstrategy.net

[L4cus]

i click to forum bt this appear:
"Not Found

The requested URL was not found on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request."

the link: https://www.androidutils.com/forum1/

[Stratego (dev)]

that is a wrong link.

use the ageofstrategy.net link
