Server on-off for updates
We'll be upgrading the server OS over the next few days so the site will be on and off.
We're getting hammered by search and AI bots from all over the world. These AI bots are the worst I've ever seen and they don't follow a robots.txt. |

Re: Server on-off for updates
Ah was wondering what was going on. Good luck with the upgrade! Now can we use AI to fight the other AIs? Or would they gang up against us?

Re: Server on-off for updates
There are apps out there to help with this but much more complicated than the robots.txt

Re: Server on-off for updates
Noticed today when I get a database error on my iPad I see the translate app icon show up in the url line. Seems strange.
