Is the forum slow for anyone else?

[Robert Ramsay]

I've noticed in the last few days that the forum intermittently slows to a crawl when I click on things. Just wanted to check whether anyone else was getting this, and whether @SkullTraill had noticed anything?

Slow right now, over 4,000 members online…

 

[Robert Ramsay]

Forum slow at present with 2,241 users.

Noticed this slowdown today too.
Wait.
OVER 4,000 at once! Daaaamn! We are Behemoth!

Well, I still have my slow down problems at 7:30 P.M.

Either way, I guess people are interested in the community . Too bad though that the people are those representative of the Dead Internet Theory

Wow, turning on the bot fight mode worked instantly on the current slowdown (3,600+ active)

@Robert Ramsay I'll leave it on for the next few days, please let me know if you experience any slowdowns during this time (to narrow down the cause) - I don't like keeping this setting on so if this fixes it I'll see about upgrading the cloudflare plan and implementing targeted rules.

Everyone else too.

Will do!

I got a brief screen of "checking you are a hooman" before taking me to the forum. Don't know what other people's experiences are, but I could certainly put up with that if it keeps the bugs away
