Whether it's ASH or friendly fire coming from curious newbies, a DOS attack is simply that. A fast server, running on unlimited bandwidth is still subject to only so many concurrent connections.

Forums are notorious for having thousands of users all issuing keep-alive pings to stay online - all the time. Unlike a web site (where the database is only taxed when a request is made) you can easily have less than a thousand users who effectually never log off.

I hope the server migration does indeed take care of the timeouts, but if not, a core cluster or mirrored server farm may be needed.

The forum is useless if you can not access it.
If the migration did not take then a lot of messages were lost, as well as post counts also.

I fInally got fed up with it and went to nu-vapor.com and made up a profile.
It is smaller, so it is a little more personal, so of you have a question it is a lot faster to get personal attention.
