@MrMazda Have server-side changes been looked at so far (the entire stack from the DDoS protection to the actual tracker service)? To my mind, there has been sufficient evidence to indicate that none of the affected users have changed anything in their client.

I'm down to seeding barely 100 torrents down from approximately 16,000, and I'm seeing a steady uptick in the number of reseed requests since the start of the outage. If a fix is not found soon, I plan to stop seeding entirely for the time being.

@spiffyweasel-0 Also, nothing has changed in my client+VPN setup for the last ~3 months so it's unlikely to be an issue we (the users) can fix.

@MrMazda I'm on qBitTorrent 4.6.3 and experiencing the issues.

@Douseikekkon More recent reports of connection issues: https://community.gaytorrent.ru/topic/64831/most-of-my-files-are-red/

@raphjd Agreed, but it seems like it was part of a longer recording. Can't tell for sure though.

@MrMazda Sorry, fixed link now, should be good for 90 days.

@vashkevron From what I can tell, it appears to be overeager DoS protection. For instance, if I switch between different VPN servers, things suddenly start working again for the first few minutes before dying back down.

@spiffyweasel-0 Previous reports of similar issues (in the last 3-4 days): https://community.gaytorrent.ru/topic/64819/a-connection-attempt-failed-in-download

@turlough I've been experiencing similar issues since the last 3-4 days. I'm using qBittorrent via VPN so it's unlikely that your setup is at fault. It's more likely that there has been a configuration change in the DoS protection for the tracker preventing so many of us from connecting. It's hard to imagine an actual DoS attack lasting so long (although I don't know this for sure).

Alternatively, does anyone recognize the people in the snippet?

@zullu Yes, the tracker seems to be non-responsive for me too.

If an admin is seeing this message, it may be worthwhile putting up a banner message on the site to prevent a torrent (pun unintended) of similar support requests until the SSL issue is fixed.

Is there any particular person on the team who I can contact about volunteering opportunities to improve the site? I'm a software developer with some web dev experience.
