It happened again... TavernMaker CLOSED
We are sorry to announce that we had to close our site for this month (Luckily only few days...) due to a too high download trafic. This time, however, it was not caused by too much interest in our site, but by people ignoring our wishes and useing "download-robot" software to copy the whole site. Every so often, such software malfunctions and keeps downloading the same file over and over and over again causing GBs of download trafic with a minimum file within minutes. Luckily we discoverd this today before extra costs where caused (we are few MBs below our monthly limit), but we have to close our site for this month now.

Server limit is reset with 1.1.2012.
So we've opened the site again. Happy New Year!
13586Your designs are wonderful, and it pains me that the evil forces in the world are determined to try and destroy an asset to the embroidery world. Hopefully, you will be able to fight these demons off.
3562Some people are so greedy and spoil it for others. With modern programmes it would be good to be able to ban this type of intrusion - Wishing you a very Happy New Year
10073I'm so sorry! I've never imagined such a robot could exist, how rude... I'm glad you caught it before it cost you money. And I just want to say what lovely designs you have made available, thank you.
5347Very sorry to hear this thank goodnes you discovered it before extra costs were incurred. thanks for you gorgeous designs. Hugs Sally
24342How frustrating that is. You do something so nice for everyone and it is abused by some. I hope Karma bites them in the you-know-where! Thanks so much for all you do for us and I'm so glad you're resilient in the face of that huge annoyance.
23163I am so sorry to hear this. Not that I download designs but I know that you work hard out of the goodness of your heart to give your lovely designs away. This is infuriating. I am fairly sure the average embroiderer does not employ robots to download designs. I would assume that the person who has done this has some illegal intention. These Robots make life on the internet difficult for everyone. I have them spamming my community site. hacking an using my email to send spam. It is non stop battle against them. Do you have a capcha code on the download page? Not that that is 100% safe because some robots can get around the capcha too. I really hope that you can find a way to stop this from happening again. It is just rude.
Alice.

Hi,
the address we have/had on our homepage is one of our working addresses. We were/are on holiday until the 3rd January, so we can only check then. But now we have a reason to look forward to starting with the job again!!

211079Thank you for advising us! I don't use any such software and when I download designs it's always one at a time. By the way, I have all your beautiful designs (or almost all of them). Hugs, Lidia
