It wasn't pretty.  Parler was hit by a DDOS attack, and we went down with them.  This is not related to all the 522 errors folks have been getting.

I had 3 or so different ones besides the "timing out" ones.

Just say it was 'sun spots'. That's what the cable companies always do.

BTW ... I cannot be the only one who was expecting an attack like this.
And also, tried to get an update on FB about gopbriefingroom.
As far as I can tell there is no dedicated GopBriefingRoom FaceBook page.

Kinda wondered. On the 522 error page, it said it might be due to something hogging server resources. A text based forum isn't going to do that.

I, too,checked fecebook. Searched for The Briefing Room, Briefing Room, GOP Briefing Room, and got nothing.

I got a bunch of 500 and 522 errors from 4:42 PM CDT to 5:11 CDT.

Didn't get back on site until quite a bit later.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

They shadow banned us. We don't show up on searches.  I believe @mystery-ak deleted the Fecebook page. We had every new post automatically posting a link on our page.  That is no more.

We are looking for a new server...Epik has been a disappointment.

They want to move us to a dedicated server which costs $250 a month...hey this isn't FR!

Just can't afford that.

Looking for suggestions...

They also shadow banned my County's GOP page.  They have been shadow banning a political party for some time now.  You will get no returns if you do a search to find "Mohave County Republican Central Committee."

See, this is why we don't want to have a 'Thon for the express purpose of buying a better server.  We are not like FR, where they use that as a tool to fleece the Members.

Heck, @mystery-ak doesn't like 'Thons in general.  I have to beg her... 888mouth

   There's no doubt in my mind, that unlike others, Myst really finds it distasteful to ask Briefers for $$$.  We can't expect her to shoulder all of the burden here though.  TBR brings much to so many, the very least of it being that she allows us a place to connect with people we have grown close to in spite of it being online.
