Sonya* Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 While using this community (not mine) I get the following page again and again Additionally the download speed of the community is low. I have looked for new skins yesterday and gave up as the images in IPS Marketplace were loaded very slow. It was just impossible to wait for loading of all screenshots. Is there any issues with the community website? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonya* Posted January 12, 2013 Author Share Posted January 12, 2013 Nobody else? I have just get another version of the "offline website" Can somebody confirm the issue? I am going to buy some skins and applications today, but I get this page again and again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eudemon Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 oh wait, so IPB uses cloudflare (´・ω・｀) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonya* Posted January 12, 2013 Author Share Posted January 12, 2013 oh wait, so IPB uses cloudflare (´・ω・｀) Unfortunately :( CloudFlare protects and accelerates any website online. I cannot see this CloudFlare offline page any more... Have seen it about 100 times today and hate it :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dmacleo Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 takes a long time for CF to build the offline page. like 2 weeks. once doen you'll see outdated page with a cf banner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin™ Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 No problem here but, it could be related to those idiots that keep ddosing the site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tenaki Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 Does IPS use Cloudflare? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dmacleo Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 yes they do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonya* Posted January 13, 2013 Author Share Posted January 13, 2013 This is not fun now. :cry: I have just purchased a skin and cannot download it due to very slow connection. I am going to purchase some other applications, but if I cannot load them it makes no sense. Dear IPS, please, investigate and configure CloudFare properly. Thank you!

motowebmaster Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Cloudflare is one of my trusted partners, but agree that the migration can be a bit rocky. It is good that IPB is taking steps to embrace the technology, security issues such as this are a reality in the world todya. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rheddy Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 I have been reluctant to use Cloudflare, the same as with Ruby on Rails because too many websites that I visit use either or both and it seems their websites crash on a regular rotating basis. Either these platform are unstable or they are deliberately being targeted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin A.

Either these platform are unstable or they are deliberately being targeted. You do know that Ruby on Rails is nothing like Cloudflare? It's a way of running code written in Ruby as a web application. Twitter is a site that runs on RoR, for instance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nils Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 I don't think Cloudflare is the problem here. The reason that IPS activated Cloudflare in the first place was probably that they were being targeted by DDoS attacks that they could not cope with on their own. So the site would probably be down a lot more without it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
