+ 2 Houston we have a problem

I think it is safe to assume that everyone is locked out right now. Only one other member showing besides me. I cannot get on with anything Safari but did get on with Chrome, but it is sketchy at best. I am confident BFG is aware and working on it.

We are live! Good morning ya'll. from my understanding this was not a hack just a website issue. All is good in the hood

mines all good now, cheers.

New certificates have been installed, issues should be gone.

I'm still timing out on chrome. Firefox works fine.

BFG's picture

It's a technical issue. Google is basically forcing website owners to upgrade SSL encryption. All newest webkit based browsers will display this warning.

I'm on it!

Just to save you some time B, I've tried the following without success: Hurling abuse, threatening to break my laptop and having a childish temper tantrum. None of them worked. I know what you're thinking, "that's some pretty advanced IT skills. I can't believe that didn't work". I know, I was shocked too.

You'll have to take it to the next level.....

cant get on by typing address in browser. only by doing a google search then clicking on that way.. same with my cell cant log on by browser name. i also have the red line through https:/ on web address....
Does anyone know why this is happening? is it a attack of some kind or is it a hosting issue, ect?

Makwa's picture

Same haven't been able to get on for a couple weeks probably but tried the Google search and it works but https is all red with a line through it and red lock to the left..

MegaT883's picture

I've been able to get on everyday but it was hit and miss. Had to try several times. Still getting Error 522 messages.

Catalyst's picture

First time I've been able to get on for a few days :(

Pale's picture

Well welcome back!

When I first open the browser I can't click on anything from drop down menus. after using the history to get to forums the drop downs work.

I can't access the site by typing www.eroids.com into my browser, but if I do a Google search for eroids and then click the link it works fine... Very strange. It does show as an unsecure site now. I was completely locked out for a week AND recovering from an injury that kept me out.of the weight room. Talk about MISERABLE.

Goran's picture

Same issue! for 2 days I kept getting the 522 cloudflare error. I go and do a search and then click Eroids, I can get on.

ANNOYING lol

Eagles 2013's picture

It really is man! I'm just glad to be able to get back in at this point

Pale's picture

I have gotten several complaints of guys having trouble with different browsers, I am on safari and everything is fine. I will hit BFG up. I haven't seen Viking or Ed or several other regulars either so something may still be wrong.

jimmie's picture

I only use chrome. Also still have the unsecure connection, I think that's what it means anyway. Address bar has lock on it with a red 'x' through it and https is red with a line through it. Past week on eroids is the only time I've ever seen this.

Eagles 2013's picture

I've had the exact same thing for the past week or so. Couldn't get in for a week, now that I found a backdoor in it is unsecure

Pale's picture

Hey Jimmie, if possible take a pic or screenshot of that and put it up in pics so I can show BFG. Thanks

Goran's picture

Www.sha1affected.com type in eroids.com
Google chrome has eliminated the use of sha1 algorithm. Anyone still using it for ssl will get a red x.
Been coming down the pipe for a while now.

Pale's picture

So what exactly does that mean?

Goran's picture

It means, Google doesnt consider the SSL Certificate secure/legit. SHA1 i believe has been compromised for a while now, meaning its flawed.

Here is a better explanation
https://community.qualys.com/blogs/securitylabs/2014/09/09/sha1-deprecat...

Google is basically pushing the issue by making all sites in Chrome using SHA1 show the red line, insecure.

Sorry I didnt respond sooner, I could not get on ER, kept getting Cloudflare 522 errors.

Pale's picture

The Boss man is going to handle it but it will still likely be a few more days.

jimmie's picture

You don't know about the ole sha1 algorithm??

Pale's picture

No but BFG agreed with you and as soon as possible he is going to get it updated. It may be a few days tho.

Man about 3 years ago I was thrust into an eroids Netherlands of just me and posts from a year earlier... it was like I was the last man on the planet LOL

Pale's picture

What was it, maybe a year ago it was like 80-90% of the guys were locked out for about a week including the mods as I recall. That was a trip too.

BlackFlag's picture

I mostly use Chrome, so I guess it's not a problem.
