They are not active, they will be used if thedonald.win is taken down permanently.

Read the stickies, people. This is TD.win 101:

https://thedonald.win/p/11QSCMNGBa/win-downtime--11272020/c/

It was maintenance.

They're at the top of the Hot page. They'll usually have yellow/orange writing that says "stickied". Also, their titles will have a red background if you have light mode on.

Same I was worried they shut us down. But the backups weren't working.

They won't until we are taken down, if they're up now they'll just take everything down at once. Also bookmark thedonalds twitter account for info if we are nuked

Realize all they'd have to do is ban that twatter account at the same time to silence us. We need many alts. Even past parler.

Always assume the simplest explanation until we find out otherwise 😉 (maintenance)

Same for me but when I went to :is it down the website said it was up???

Rightfoot 2 points ago +3 / -1

yes, During a Dos attack your site is up but its incredibly busy from the attack.

Ha that's what I did

Just a random question. Do ddos attacks show up in data used to determine website rankings? Wouldn’t it be odd if the left ddos attacks actually raised tdw site rank?

For those of us who are tech retarded how do we figure out what is occurring?

Bookmark or otherwise keep handy the backup sites:

thedonald.xyz thedonald.one thedonald.space

These sites will only be activated if .win goes down permanently. If they are not up, any problem occurring is temporary. Meaning the site is safe, you just have to wait a bit for the mods to resolve the issue.

Check the sticky for an explanation of what happened today.

You can't really tell when it's occurring but you can Google their Twitter page. They posted a new message before the site returned.

This site has hosting that prevents a DDos attack (many 'visits' at the same time) so it's unlikely it will be knocked offline.

DDOS for sure. Cloudflare's automated software kicked in.

8
Cyphr 8 points ago +8 / -0

No. They had an internal problem with their system. It was not an attack, and not due to too much traffic.

Also, Cloudflare is a service used to help fight against DDOS attacks. Cloudflare stops the attacks before they can damage the site (TDW in this case) behind their proxies. You will frequently see the Cloudflare proxy notification when you connect to TDW... that is normal.

Mod answered me in the other thread, it was enabled manually when it went down. No biggie. I've never personally seen it on this site before, is all.
