Interestingly, I can't even access AULRO via Chrome but I can via the Brave browser yet I can use Chrome to access all the other fora I frequent.

I can also get in with Firefox.

I can get in with Chrome again. It's been unavailable for quite some time.

i just turned attack mode off to see how quickly the hits rise..

your chrome install doesn't like cloudflare's attack mode for whatever reason...
