Zooville Feedback and bug reporting thread.

Trying to make up more posts to get my messages back again.. but whilst here. I find it’s incredibly slow sometimes, usually vpn running. All other sites load fine but sometimes seem to lag a lot on ZV.

Must be a difference. Running the site and maintaining it is different to Moderating it I would think

And there are many here with the skills to maintain the site i would hazzard a guess

While this is something many could do, you don't want someone who is not fully trustworthy doing it. They have a lot of power of the site, and have to both have integrity enough to not abuse the power, and the skill set to now allow the site to start leaking data and stuff.

It's less about volunteers and more about actually finding someone who is suitable for it.

Congratulations, you're the 5,000th person to bitch about that. You've hit the magic number to make the admin team to flip the switch to stop the ddos attacks.
 

DDOS Attacks, Server Load Issues and Donations.

Zooville has been facing an absolute wave of DDOS attacks and other denial of service tactics as of recent. The issue has gotten so bad & out of hand, i've come to help address and keep zooville running. That is, keep zooville running as long as YOU the community, wish to keep it running. The...

Sadly, it doesn't seem that @SloppyTac0 has much interest in addressing the issue. The recently implemented Anti-DOS protocols are a real pain. Yet another reason that having a decent VPN provider helps as the only work around right now is changing IP addresses. It must be a real pain for the forums staff getting their work done unless they've been granted exceptions. I know that group owners/moderators have to struggle with the imposed limitations. *grumbles and sighs*
