We still have $1472 in the kitty. We're spending around AU$120/month on hosting and the SSL certificate cost bit extra as well (and still needs sorting).

Been out of circulation... Apologies for missing this. Will get onto it asap

Unfortunately this site has become almost unusable the last few days, often taking a minute for each link to respond. The stats at the bottom of the page just now said there were 3 registered users and 1100 guests currently on the site. It also says there were over 2600 guest users logged in at 4.30am. Surely the site performance is due to this proliferation of assumed bots.

Are there any settings available to make the site more secure and responsive, like a limit on guest logins? Should guests even be allowed to get past the main menu?

I'm happy to contribute to any additional software/ cloud costs, just worried we're going to have a diminished community if reading and responding to threads becomes too arduous (as if the club wasn't doing enough! ).

I had the server bounced yesterday and it was good for a short time but it's turned to shit now. Unfortunately the server software is outdated due to the site being outdated. I'll have a chat to the mods about this.

Any update on this? Site is unusable much of the time for me 1-2 minutes per link or post "preview" or "submit" and half the time the event fails and just returns a server link broken message.

Why can't guest users be limited to 10 and kicked off every few minutes with IP blocking for repeat offenders or something?

Would money help?
