Put in some filters to stop the botnet(s) that were pointed at the servers. IMMEDIATELY saw a performance boost to the servers. Will monitor the results overnight to see if banning THOUSANDS of CPU miners cures the problems.
If you're having trouble connecting after the filters were put in place, send me a PM. Botnets need not apply.
Registrations have been re-opened due to the servers showing an incredible recovery after the bans.
The account balance of the botnet has been donated to Bitcoin Faucet.
