Hey everyone!
Given that I have some tech background, and a nack for looking things up before I assume things, I wanted to give you some tech tips regarding Cloudflare errors!
So what are these errors? Well, the service Cloudflare is very useful in ensuring assorted services are kept running for both the forums and TLOPO (website included). Sometimes errors occur, and Cloudflare will tell you about these errors VIA an error page.
Error 525
This is an error neither the forums, nor TLOPO have been privy to. This error refers to an SSL error, and comes from an issue with the way the server admin set up their service. It is NOT possible to provoke this page through a denial of service attack (ddos), so if you see someone claiming that one is occurring when they have seen an Error 525, let them know! Here is the official Cloudflare post for more information:
https://support.cloudflare.com/hc/en-us/articles/200278659-Error-525-SSL-handshake-failed
Error 522
This error comes from the inability to reach the web service. Normally this issue is due to a high amount of traffic flowing through the network toward (or from..) the website, which throws you to the error page. This is one of the only DDoS related error pages you will see from Cloudflare. Here is some more information officially from Cloudflare:
https://support.cloudflare.com/hc/en-us/articles/200171906-Error-522-Connection-timed-out
Although other information pages do occur, they are very rare in number and one should never assume they are a DDoS attack. I just wanted to ensure the community was aware of these various errors. For more information on the other error pages Cloudflare shows, please visit this link:

Thank you, everyone, and please feel free to ask me tech related questions in this thread regarding Cloudflare and error pages!
