The last couple of days I’ve had issues accessing the oodmag community webpage. Is my smart phone not as smart as I thought or is it on ood end?
I could not get in last night and all day today. Just got online now. I've not heard from Admin yet, but I'm thinking there were major server issues.
Still hit and miss.
Just got in now
Just got in at 6pm.
FYI Webmaster: I can't retrieve/read PMs sent to me , but I can send them and have them readable by others.
Hey everyone,
Last night we had some malicious bots attack the Forum which ultimately crashed the site. Our webmaster was able to get it back up and running a short while ago, to the standard we’ve come to expect. If there are still items missing by this time tomorrow, I’d say please let us know in this thread.
Also there will be a site update tonight around 1 am - 2 am so please expect service interruptions at that time as well.
Thank you for your patience,
Meghan
Definitely not right-can not open posts,and can not reply.
I can post/edit here,but can not open Bowhunting and can not reply to Firearms and Ammo
same here
Looks like everything is working fine again. I spoke too soon. There are still problems in many areas of the site.
No,it is not-Improved,but i can not do "reply with a quote" function here(maybe elsewhere too),and the Bowhunting -Archery 2022 buck thread is still totally acting up.
But-i can do a simple reply.
This is what I see on most pages but not all. Some pages are viewable.

So friends know: I still can't read PMs sent to me ; that's why you are not getting a reply. I'm not mad at you. :) Can't use the "quote feature" either.
Can't see reported post
Can't see forum rules drop down box.
Can't send pm's however can read and respond to pm's
Cannot reply with a quote. Darned Russians, or North Koreans, or is it the Iranians. Maybe PETA??
Can’t reply with quote
Moving this thread to the top of the "new posts" list , so members understand what is happening.
These issues should be fixed ASAP,all of them...i guess......now even PM reply can not be read.
Can’t see several post still
Test with Quote did not work
Cannot add links
Search function doesn't work, throws an error text page
I can't post - I get a message saying I need to wait 30 seconds.
Edit: I guess it worked on this thread, but not on others.
gbk:
I know it is frustrating, but no one wants it fixed more than the webmaster, Meghan and the forum owner. I'm sure they are working very hard at it. At least it was "just" a bot attack and not a ransomware attack as far as I know. Although, as we now know, bot attacks are hard to fix. Patience has to prevail.
Good Morning all,
Working to address the remaining problems. Apologies for the silence I've been down-and-out with a flu the last couple of days. In the past when we've had a corrupted Forum after a shutdown, we've had to go back to a previous back-up of the Forum. Please be mindful of this when you post in the next couple of days (your content may not be saved in the latest back-up Forum reboot).
Thank you, and we appreciate your patience.
Thanks Meghan.
i agree with Sharon. I am sure they are working as hard as they can and that that want the forum up an running as much as you all do. be patient.

Good Morning Forum folks,
We're looking to be in better form today, am able to receive PM and view threads that were down this morning, after yesterday's troubleshooting efforts. Please respond on this thread if you find more fixes that need to be made.

Not working fine today- Dec. 19.
When I start( every time) to type a post the page immediately shoots to the bottom. I have to bring it back up and start the post again at which point it works.
To day - 20th- Every time I do something on the forum it shuts down and I have to sign again. Very annoying.
Touch wood..it seems to be working for me on Google Chrome.Quote:
