I only just noticed that this site has been going through some DDoS attacks. Damn...
no wonder why I had so much trouble trying to connect to this site for the past few days. Not to mention, my internet keeps cutting out for some odd reason. Ethernet decides to keep dying out on me until I turn on and off my wifi.

Yep - MLP Forums is a big enough deal that someone thought it was worth spending money and risking a criminal record to try and disrupt us. They've been at it all week but our magic of friendship is stronger!
I believe we have a pretty decent moat set up now that's protecting us against this attack but if you encounter any trouble using the site again, please post about it in the Site Questions forum; trouble reports from users are still a very helpful way of finding out that something needs attention.
Protip: I've developed a personal habit of ctrl+c'ing what I wrote up before clicking submit, especially during times of intermittent connectivity, just in case my connection to the site drops while it tries to transmit my post. It's a habit I've found useful outside of MLPF even moreso than here.
