It's probably that failed draft thread. If you lock it, that will probably restore sanity here.

Our issue is 100% bots as explained in my last post. We've been overwhelmed by them in recent weeks and I tried really hard to avoid CloudFlare. But we just don't have a choice at this point.
We do not allow VPN's on registration. We need to know who people are (i.e. not a banned member working around things).
Then how does @So Ram and @RamFan503 keep "getting around things?"
Most of us love @So Ram, we just like to give him a hard time for making our brains work overtime to read his posts. They often remind me of the 80s and make me question if I'm having a flashback.
Appreciated - yeah I’m a hard read.
Think I’m going to be more of a fly on the wall.This season took a hard spill to finish that Washington game.
Without Puka The Rams offense is going to have to play more 13 personnel. The defense is going to really need to stay healthy.
—Loved seeing Emanuel Forbes step up.Last year he really flashed & now with Jaylen Watson he has to be that guy who takes those bigger WR’s. Showed a toughness that was impressive.
Theoretically, checking the box to prove humanness, should allow access whether you are using a VPN or not. Why wouldn't it?
Sorry but he pissed me off on some of his comments on me.
And his comments give me a headache.

We are officially routed through CloudFlare, which will deal with the bots. We should be stable now, and going forward.
As things are set now, known users will not be required to hit the "click here if human" button.
If there is a suspicious set of attacks, you may be prompted at sign in... and visitors more likely required to do so.
For now, we should be set.

The site has been much better the last couple hours or so. Thank you again for all you do.
I used to have to make BGP changes to route our company traffic through Akamai to be scrubbed when we would get attacked by bots, DDoS, etc. I eventually just routed my traffic there by default after too many attacks. Agreed on the cesspool comment.
