DNS Updates

Hey all,

In an effort to help with scaling of the site, I am moving the domain behind CloudFlare. Conveniently, they recently added support for WebSockets (which is what this forum uses to give “live” updates). The free plan of CloudFlare allows for these websockets, so I don’t expect issues.

The biggest goal of this change is to provide enhanced security for members along with minimizing traffic hitting the server negatively. To cut off any rumors, no, we are not being DDOS’d or anything like that. I like to play it safe and want to have this done while we still expect changes :smiley:

Please post here if you run into ANY issues after 6 PM Pacific on 6/27 (http://www.thetimezoneconverter.com/?t=6:00%20PM&tz=Pacific%20Time%20(PT)&)

Thank you again for dealing with my tinkering. Trying to make sure the forums survive whatever we throw at it!

Edit
Changes are now live. Good luck.
