According to their TOS they don't allow copyright infringement, just so you're not surprised when they remove your user/site...

Totally agree with above.

and If google blocked IPs or DNS so what is the next option to do ?

Hi Curahack,

Here's what we do with copyright complaints:

1. Send the party making the complaint the IP address of your server.
2. Forward the complaint to the site owner so they can review the complaint and take appropriate action.

We don't take sites down because of a complaint. We're not a hosting provider, so any issues of content take down have to be done at the host level.

CloudFlare's IPs are actually whitelisted by Google. If you change to CloudFlare, our IPs would show in a NS lookup.

Scenarios:
1. CloudFlare.com site proper is down = customer sites still up (sit on separate DNS).
2. We have issues in one datacenter= site still available through other datacenters.

Our uptime is in the 99.93+% range right now, which will only get better with the new datacenters online.

I stopped using them because the users ips on my forum were cloudflare ips.

 

[damoncloudflare]

www.linkplz.com

Hi Sponge Bob,

Super. Thanks for using us.

A couple of things I wanted to highlight for people that are areas of potential concern:

1. You would want to install mod_cloudflare if you need original visitor IP at the server level.
2. If you make changes to static content on your site, you would want to enable Development Mode first (some other frequently used settings included in the link).

CloudFlare and forums

I stopped using them because the users ips on my forum were cloudflare ips.

Funny that you posted that just as I was mentioning mod_cloudflare You need to install the mod_cloudflare option to get original visitor IP. There are also other solutions for other forum packages on this page.

Great protocol you have here, nice. I'm currently trying the service. 8-)

Hi Curahack,

Thanks for checking out the service.

" I hope you know the nature of this forum."
Probably the same as most of the forums I hang at

hey damon. I knew you'd make it here eventually. We've talked on WHT quite a few times (under a different user ID).

any chance of adding paypal or alertpay?

WHT/Getting around

hey damon. I knew you'd make it here eventually. We've talked on WHT quite a few times (under a different user ID).

Well, I tend to get around quite a bit. A lot of people used to think I was a bot when I worked for a different company (PayPal).

 

[damoncloudflare]

PayPal

Hi Gavo,

PayPal is definitely in the works. Adding the new datacenters is the priority right now, but PayPal should likely be available in the next 30-60 days or so.

The fact that you're here just turned me away from your service, good job.

Although it looks reasonably good so thanks for posting, now-b7'd "username".

Hi JMZ,

"The fact that you're here just turned me away from your service, good job."

Not sure why that would be the case. Care to clarify? Generally speaking, most forums I've visited in the past *like* having someone from the company available to answer questions about the service.

 

[Drinkordie]

This is awsome mate, + repo for you : )

What an obnoxious response. If you'd take the time to look at the faces behind CloudFlare, you would see how insanely qualified they are.

http://www.cloudflare.com/people.html

CloudFlare is absolutely superb and completely innovative. The fact that they take the time to cater to webmasters at the forums which they already visit is awesome.

I can also confirm they do this.

Once under cloudflare I received a complaint and they forwarded a DMCA complaint to me.

Out of noware I recieved an email saying that my DNS servers aren't pointed to Cloudflare anymore, while they still are ( I haven't changed them). They are still pointed to the 2 nameserver I recieved from CloudFlare... Please look into that...

Domain: curashare.net

 

[damoncloudflare]

Sorry for the delay...

I'm currently on vacation overseas. But looking at the domain it looks like you have extra NS entries that need to be removed (only the two CloudFlare nameservers should be there).
