Has anyone been noticing this forum going offline intermittently throughout the day?
Are we being attacked?

The page sometimes takes a really long time to load.

Yes, over a week now. "Database errors, "Under Maintenance" image upon timeout, etc.

This past Saturday and Sunday REALLY bad.

System needs another reboot again.

Still....
Cannot open without first getting "An unexpected database error occurred. Please try again later" first or second time then generally a refresh of browser once or twice brings it up.
Also getting improperly formatted screen about a fourth of the time which also requires a browser refresh.

Annoying but so far better than last year (which isn't saying much).

Good Lord...talk about a busy, controversial and "involved" company. I have not read up on any other providers/services similar to Cloudflare so I have no idea how they compare. If you have some time and/or are having trouble falling asleep, go for it....
