Hacking wiibrew.org

[mauifrog]

Please tell me that I am not the only one having trouble with wiibrew.org. It has been down for 2-3 days for me. Now it is back up, but the links to the forum and apps are gone, who knows what else. Then when I try to post in the forum I get sent to this damn link. Using chrome.

I am not.

If this is just me, I think windows is looking for a good format.

edit- I can post on the wiibrew forum with tor browser, wtf. The links are still gone though.

There are some temporary issues with the server being worked on. Obviously when something goes wrong with a "medium" sized server like this one it's probably a serious failure and a simple reboot probably won't fix it - it's not your average VPS box handling just one or two sites. If you do manage to bring up any pages from the wiki they're probably coming from your browser cache or the varnish cache, not the actual webserver. However the forum and the letterbomb site should now be working (at least at the time of writing this, they may go down again).

The pirate response from the forum is normally triggered by making very short posts and/or multiple posts in a short amount of time, I doubt it's related.

Ok, thanks for the info. I don't think the message was very short, but perhaps it was. I believe it was a sentence or two, not long but not very short. Hope the issues are sorted. Glad to know it is not me.

mauifrog, "you are a pirate"

It's up and working again on my end.

The pirate SWF only appears if you don't tick the box saying your post doesn't contain warez ROMs isos etc., to the best of my knowledge. If you missed that box, it'll redirect you there.

All is well folks. The website is a little slow but otherwise fine.
