Whatifmodellers site issue?

[scautomoton]

Is anyone else getting this message when they try to access the site?:

Table './whatifmodellers/smf_sessions' is marked as crashed and last (automatic?) repair failed

 

[Hobbes]

Yes.

 

[Leading Observer]

Me too

 

[Caravellarella]

Ditto

So it's not just me then.

Another site I use has crashed due to DOS attacks - their admin think that constant AI search engine crawlers might be causing slow downs.

Hi, guys. I see it's not just me getting that message. I'd already posted on a different thread asking about this.

So it's not just me then.

Another site I use has crashed due to DOS attacks - their admin think that constant AI search engine crawlers might be causing slow downs.

Maybe those AI bots really are what's causing the thousands of views overnight on some modelling topics that Seadude was talking about a couple of days ago. All i know is that it sucks...

Up and running as of the time stamp of this posting for me on the US West Coast.
