The server may have some down time tonight as I fix our IPTABLEs setup so I can properly block bots and ip's from the server with out having to log in to the AWS control panel. Estimated down time should be at max 30 minutes (unless i really fubar something but that shouldn't happen...) The maintenance has no set time I will edit this when I have a set time I just know it will be tonight/very early morning (Think around 12:00am Gmt-5)
I blocked the offenders on the cloudflare side of things for now. I will still be fixing iptables though.
EDIT: I broke everything....going to try again tommorow...with the Cronjob set up PROPERLY <-- i feel like a tart yeah.....
Thank you- The management

Well, good luck ^_^

I made an edit:

-
ha, good luck! :D
i don't really like ip tables >.<
-
The problem is i never changed the global pollicy off accept so i just have to fix that :P but i may lock everyone out on accident hence the maintenance window XD
-
what if you lock yourself out x.x
does netham have a amazon control pannel?
-
yes he does and thats what cron tab is for....going to set it to reset the iptables every 15 minutes or so...just incase....
-
Will there be some warning setup for those IPs in case of a false positive? For example, if the bot uses several thousand of IP addresses and a Chinese member happens to pass by (eg Deep Thought if he goes to China this Summer, Northern_Snow or Chickendude). That said, those people are used to using proxies so I guess they will probably do that by themselves, but just in case I guess. :P
-
So i made a fubar and shut the server down for half an hour OOPS and will try again tomorrow night...i know what i did wrong..it was working until my cronjob to make sure i didn't get locked out locked me out...
-
What is a fubar? :P
-
FUBAR = FUCKED UP BEYOND ALL RECOGNITION
-
Haha, fubaring the fubar protection. Great. Thankfully, I was watching a movie during this time.
-
So you should've have taken your chance and not using the cronjob >.<
-
Pretty much lol
-
Still hoping you can manage to solve the lag issue lol :P
-
I blocked the bots cloudflare side. i just hate messing with the cloudflare settings hence the want for iptables. So the current cause for lag is gone. I will have this setup eventually...just need to actually setup my cronscript correctly...(eg make it just set it to accept all....blah stupid stupid error)
-
Ah ok I see now. Inb4 the bots find a new way through.
-
Why don't you like messing with CF settings? To risky to you?

More work. I can do ssh work on the go on my phone. Web uis and android suck together for some reason
