Title: Website won't load on computers at my house. Can access the site just fine with tapatalk
Post by: demosthenes9 on June 22, 2017, 10:20:03 AM
Was trying to post in the Target clearance thread last night.   Had 14 links to brickseek.  Post did not go through.  So, I went back and deleted one link and tried to submit.  Again did not go through.

Repeated process a number of times figuring that perhaps there was some limit to number of links in a post.  Thought I'd eventually stumble into what that limitation number was.

After the 4th or 5th attempt, WKC pages would no longer come up in my browser.  The pages would time out.  Switched to another browser and got the same result.  Went to two other computers in the house and same thing happens there as well.

Am using Tapatalk over cell connection and obviously, it works.  Haven't tried to access over wifi yet, but will after posting this.

Am wondering if the website blocked my ip on that end as a defensive / anti-spam measure?

No problem. sorry for the hassle.

for what it's worth, that preview button seems to be dangerous.

Seems like there is an issue posting a lot of links.  I got locked out the other day posting a list of links.

Yeah.  I just made more attempts at posting the links.  Worked from the other direction this time.   Made a post, then edited it adding one link, then edited again adding two.   Looks like more than three links in the post will kick it.

I was getting that a lot last week.
Caching is disabled, so it has been stressing the server out.
Traffic is triple what it normally is because we're so awesome.

From the computer that is having issues:
1. do a google search for "what is my IP"
2. copy the numbers that google search results displays as your IP (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx)
3. get those numbers to me somehow (troy@weberkettleclub, text 662SEOTROY, post them here, PM me)
