AquaRegia Posted June 18, 2022 Report Share Posted June 18, 2022 I've been having essentially the same issue, including the double posts. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paleo Posted June 18, 2022 Report Share Posted June 18, 2022 Hi @Robin Sedai, we're unfortunately experiencing issues with our forum hosting right now and are working with our provider to fix the issue. I thought for some time that it was solve, but the problem persisted unfortunately. I have put measures in place that at least make the forums somewhat usable again for the time being. You might still see timeouts for some actions like posting, though. I'll post an update here when the issues are fully resolved. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaos Posted June 18, 2022 Report Share Posted June 18, 2022 Paleo went to bed and left me with a few instructions. I believe the situation has been resolved perhaps now. For some additional context, our particular node we were on was hit with some heavy IO failure of some kind, and moving us to a different node seems to have resolved things. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's odd, considering I'm closer to Seattle, so that can't be the reasoning. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chaos Posted June 19, 2022 Report Share Posted June 19, 2022 Cloudflare is a Content Delivery Network which helps on a variety of things. Probably is easiest for me to just link this: https://www.cloudflare.com/learning/what-is-cloudflare/ It would indeed have nodes all over the place so would display a city near you. That's how it works. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin Sedai Posted June 19, 2022 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2022 (edited) But Seattle is (almost) as far as you can get from where I am. Surely it's got something nearer? Edited June 19, 2022 by Robin Sedai 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaos Posted June 19, 2022 Report Share Posted June 19, 2022 I mean, I don't work at Cloudflare nor know where you live, so I don't know how much I can illuminate things 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, your in China right? Well maybe cloudflare doesn't have many Asian/Eastern European spots, and Seattle is just going East instead of West. Also, it can't be purely location-based because I'm closer to Seattle mine is LA. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
