I just noticed that in Google searches using site:autohotkey.com xxx the returned results are shown as unsafe (as reported by my Anti-Virus software (Webroot). I assume it is due to a change in server settings (?). I have not seen this before:

Here near Seattle it's been sporadic. Non-responsive one time, then fine the next. Been that way for a couple of days. It's not my wifi at home, because I see it at work too. Seen the CloudFire check a couple of times. The entire site seems to be affected (forums and documentation).

Cloudflare Under attack mode is still on, traffic seems normal. Only thing I can notice is that bandwidth peak usage doubled in the last ~hour, from ~5 Mb/s to ~10 Mb/s... but even then nothing to worry about...

Has the popularity of this site outgrown to allowable bandwidth?

No, I don't think so, but we can always just upgrade our server if needed.

I've been getting the Cloudfire check every time. Usually not slow. Super-slow right now though.

The docs pages have been horrible all day.
I've gotten multiple timeouts.
Other times it takes 1-2 minutes for a page to load.
It's been happening since last night.

Been using the built-in docs most of the day.

As for the forums, it took me multiple tries to log in.
I finally did get to the point where I could write up this reply.
Just tried posting it and it failed.
Reopened in the full reply editor and tried again. Success.

Just wanted to file my report.
Hope you guys get everything sorted out soon.
Good luck.

Is it me or is the forum slowing down again, especially when posting a reply?

When making a post there's a bit of a wait before the page refreshes to show it, opening the topic in another window/tab before the refresh often shows the post already included in the topic. This has been the case for almost a year, the wait is getting longer no doubt as the DB grows in size.
By comparison, the wait for post previews and edits is much less, and browsing the forum is fine. :)

Agree that submitting a post does take longer than it should. Several seconds
