Forum access through TOR

08 Apr 2022, 09:05

On my main place I only use Torbrowser to access WWW. Sadly it's difficult to use autohotkey.com. >90% of my tries I get blocked. When I get access and start to write something it often happens, that I get blocked again before the message is submitted. Much waste of time. That's frustrating and the reason why I rarely use the forum and even more rarely write.

Shouldn't it be possible to use the forum easily with Torbrowser, too?
Or is there an alternate address (onion?) to mitigate this?

We actively block most TOR traffic, because we would get too many attacks, malicious traffic. Sorry. :/
It's this vs downtime 😕

Shouldn't there be a better way than blocking TOR?
Most other sites seem to handle this without big problems. Please think about that.

Unfortunately, we lack a full time staff and are very low budget. Sorry. :?
