Yum yum. The threat of the forums being ddosed is pretty high. It takes away the ability to coordinate community events and raids. Everyone has to deal with it. I say its a great investment and it should stay.its really not that bad tbh

I've about had it with this. Not only do I have issues with this personally, but it's been causing problems for a lot of SG applicants, therefore probably WG applicants as well.

It takes about 5 minutes to load the forums on my phone, just waiting for CloudFlare's loading wheel to spin.

Today, an in-game recruit applying for SG couldn't retrieve her application after I got her off Scape to write it. Well funny I'm the one who suggested CloudFlare, but it's getting fucking annoying. We really needed it then, do we still now? :/

There is a cloudflare warning at the bottom of the app form. Originally I had forgotten to add the second line to the SG app, but the first line was always there: http://puu.sh/5kFsA.png
I've added the second line now.

Robbie is the one who can make the call about removing it.

Also my phone loads it quite quickly (10 secs or less usually), iphone 4s

Well, if WG's under serious threat of being Ddos'ed, keep Cloudflare.
If not, remove it until it's needed.

Take me to church
I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife
Offer me that deathless death
Good God, let me give you my life

Robbie has now set Cloudflare to medium, it was on strict before, idk what impact that has but we'll see.
