Answered New Host > Major problems on Tor

I have used Tor throughout my time on poal - now it's almost impossible to even visit the site.

I asked you earlier (@AOU) about some issues on previous host with regards to login problems, which were seldom and could be fixed by connecting to a new node.

-Not anymore.

It took me 23 days to figure out poal.co was already online all this time...

And after my first login today, posting once, then browsing and realizing problems were about (site "unavailable" > only on Tor: works fine on other IPs), it took me 30 re-connects through other nodes to even write this post.

So @AOU: this post may be my last: I can't even get into the site anymore, and if that means me choosing not to use Tor, that means goodbye poal. (Not that I've contributed anything that carry that much weight, but still, I won't relieve myself of the yardsticks at my disposal just yet.)

Edit:

After walkthrough by @AOU:

There's an algorithm in place that blocks IPs that fuck up poal. Most IPs are Tor nodes these days, which makes poal near inaccessible through Tor for regular users.

Problem ["solved"]:

-Problems will linger for Tor users for the duration of the attacks.

Quick question: What/how are the fuckers flooding?

lol Like I’m gonna give away details on how to circumvent the protection.

You fucker. Made. Me. Laugh. Thanks.

Well, let's agree that the wave is a major fuck-in-the-ass atm.

For one: I won't stop using Tor anytime soon - (which probably is why so many fuckers use it to fuck up this site - don't you think? /What's the point of Tor again?/)

Second, fuck you for taking care of the hassle lately.

Aka: Thank you.

Still: Fuck you for taking so long to get to the point.

My original comment never claimed the protection was exclusive to Tor.

One thing is sure, it works exactly as intended.

There’s no accidental floods, or someone would have to be sharing the very same IPs as the kikes trying to take Poal down.

Agreed, but it (Tor) is what is affected. (From my POV).

And that it works: Yes: it just happens to block Tor users (atm.). Hence my frustration.

Accidental floods: Extremely unlikely. (and not my point(-er)).

But if you're having problems on your end, it does come through Tor it would seem.

If this is what "they" use these days, there's little to (do about) it - and thus: little to do but stave out the storm.

Lest they sit there manually pressing buttons like an idiot... (like I do), which is unlikely.

Aka: smells like DDOS fuck-twat something or other.

End Note:

I'll be checking in from time to time, but on the grander picture of things, it's just a wittle wolf blowing at the hut yet again - and should calm down after a while.

But fuck me: it really took me 23 days from the site coming back online to I realized it was actually back online.

Only today, I bothered to log in.

I checked the site almost every day, but never came through, thus thinking poal was still down due to transition.

Fuckin' Tor, eh?

Tor is the easiest way to change an IP, but they also try VPN and Proxies, and these usually have triggers for this kind of behavior.
