Hi Dave
I find the speed varies. An hour ago it was slow, fast now. Also the RSS Feeds Forum is not a link like the other RSS feeds as well as Pete pointed out, the missing latest posts section missing.
The RSS feeds are kind of weird since some time ago. It is working because the news get posted to Warp Groups.io mailing list, but I don't know why they look weird.

Most of you should now experience significantly more stable access to the server.

Over the past period, the server has been experiencing a prolonged volume of malformed PHP requests, which gradually overwhelmed PHP-FPM and caused intermittent crashes.

As an immediate mitigation, traffic originating from China has been temporarily region-blocked, as the bulk of this traffic was traced there. Since applying this block, server stability has improved.

We will continue to monitor the situation and implement further protections as needed.

in february the access to the forum pages is getting harder for me (my home connection works good), I succeed to open a forum page once in many attempts, mostly ending with the alert "server is not responding"

Here it varies. Yesterday the site just timed out. Today it is working well so far.

 Here, about an hour ago it timed out. Now it seems fine. Just about every time I try to visit so far this year it seems very slow to respond or times out, then sometime later is OK. I have also seen where the page comes up, but the forum section does not show (it's blank). Very strange behavior.

Regards,

Hello

Yes, we are experiencing some problems with the OS2World server. We are doing some work migrating some server stuff that is going to take a couple of weeks (I guess).
