Reposting.
Can we consolidate China threads. There are too many and confusing varieties with little depth unlike paki

Thanks

Disparaging the Govt and flame baiting posters is not acceptable behaviour on BRF.

Please take a time out for the next 6 months.

Mods I want to raise the alarm on a particular Pakistani psyops, an article allegedly written by Telegraph UK

This article is massively critical of IAF strategy and the Rafale.

Why is it dangerous? One, it’s rapidly gaining traction online and (I believe) shaping public discourse

It has even appeared twice on BR. Once a member posted it it in full a few days ago (was deleted) and today it has appeared as a link to a Bharat Karnad blog post.

https://bharatkarnad.com/2025/05/10/raf ... n-for-mfa/

Karnad has based the crux of his argument on this fake article! Here the article appears in the form of a quote by Captain Bhagwat.

I won’t post it in full here but just so we can track it some of the language is as follows - “ Saab Erieye AWACS patrolling silently
J-10C fighters flying in passive mode
PL-15E missiles—the export PL-15E, the domestic variant with over 300 km reach and Mach 5 speed—locked in and fired.”

If an established defence analyst can be fooled so easily, imagine aam janta.

And mind you it’s well written, sounds like expect opinion and even reads like something out of a Tom Clancy novel.

This is the only place I thought I could sound the alarm. We need to combat it vigorously

I have edited MULTIPLE posts of yours for posting youtube videos without a title or a description. There are certain guidelines when posting YT videos, which despite repeated requests - from me - you are ignoring to follow. Please confirm you are seeing this post of mine. If you continue posting videos in this manner, I will have to restrict your posting privileges. Thank You.

Here is a sample post of yours and my note attached ---> viewtopic.php?p=2649127#p2649127

Was BRF down yesterday and earlier today?

Even using VPN, could not access BRF for a long time.

[gakakkad]

Was it a DDOS from pakees ?
That would constitute a CFV.
Time to blow up Karachi

I have sent you multiple warnings to not simply post YouTube videos a title or a description. However, you are still not complying.

Please take a one month break. Goodbye.

Indeed, it's working now

The Bharat Rakshak forums were inaccessible to me. I was always getting a timeout. Was there any outage?? The email I sent to [email protected] bounced. Is there any alternate email for admins?

I had the exact same timeout problem visiting BRF, since end of April 2025. Recently, last week, sent an email to [email protected] and that bounced back, saying address unknown.

However, yesterday, I could access BRF when using VPN. It looks like RJio was not letting BRF load. If it helps in anyway, I am located in southern parts of India. So, BRF not loading was weird

Now, looks like things are back to normal

Mod … what’s with the red highlighted note. I posted it with comments. All you have done is format changes and moved to different thread. On a phone, not that easy to format like that.

The site is acting strange since getting up again.

Quite a few times I submit a post and the login screen is shown

In fact just to submit this post I had to try thrice

Which browser are you using? This is a common problem with Firefox. Been there for some time.

[Mukesh.Kumar]

Currently sometimes CloudFlare gives the message that there is a problem with the SSL certificate.

Hi. I have disabled page caching for the dynamic content, hopefully this should address the repeat login prompt issue. Let us know if the issue still presists. Thanks

Hi. Let us know if you are still seeing the issue, I would have expected this issue to no longer be there since we are fully migrated to Cloudflare. Thanks

Hi Manish - I have made further tweaks to the forum software, this should now resolve the issue. Keep us posted.

Thank you. Worked perfectly both on Chrome and Firefox this time round (am using home PC).

Fingers crossed

Sirji,

Getting logged out frequently.

a post takes 3-4 attempts, at least.

Using brave browser primarily.

All browsers were working perfectly before.

It does not look browser specific to me

[Bala Vignesh]

I am getting a cloudflare verification everytime i refresh a page or jump between forums and threads.
No such errors while posting fortunately.

I also have the same problem. Also "no such errors while posting". I am using Chrome on F34 (Linux).

[arshyam]

Same here. It's not loading on some of my older devices, which have old browsers.

[webmaster]

@Bala Vignesh, @Vayutuvan, @arshyam - The Cloudflare rules have been updated you should be getting the verfication messages less frequently.

@Chetak - The issue you have described is different, let me know if you still are having an issue

[Rakesh]

@webmaster: Working way better for me now. Thank you so much!
