"Most users ever online was 6091 on Wed Mar 04, 2026 8:52 am"

No wonder us 1200 members had trouble getting in. Looking OK so far this morning.

Thought it was something I had done, and been found out :ph43r:

Yeah dunno what was happening last night, picking was some crawler maybe, don't think we've had any controversial topics lately that would spawn international interest :ph43r:

Will take a look at the logs in detail. Last night I looked at the server and disk space etc was all good, database was working, the site was just offline for some reason and not responding. May have been an issue on the webhost so I'll flick them a message too

Cheers Dino - I started seeing probs on Monday - very slow login, but I got in until I tried to move to another thread, when it threw me out with a "Resources limit exceeded". Tried to login a couple more times, but "nzff. org rejected the connection" appeared after a "timed out" notice. Several attempts on Tuesday, none succesful. All the rest of my regular rounds worked OK. I thought it might be a DDoS attack on NZFF. Tried this morning and saw those traffic numbers.

I get that warning most times when I try to connect to the NZFF Site.
It's been happening for years.
No problems with all my regular Site connections.

Like Mike...
I also get the "Resources Exceeded" malarky, as well

It's a bloody conspiracy.... :ph43r:

....!

I've got used to it now!

It's one of the many perils of daily logging into NZFF... :huh:
