pygame
Website Down or something
I get this error whenever I try and access the website. Does anybody else get this error or is it just me?
The message is all good and well, but completely breaking the documentation for a library for political reasons is just evil. A banner would've sufficed.
I'm getting a similar error.
Looking into the page source, it's actually a Cloudflare access denied error page:
<h1>Access denied</h1>
<p>You do not have access to www.pygame.org.</p><p>The site owner may have set restrictions that prevent you from accessing the site.</p>
I can visit the site just fine from other IP addresses, but not from my home IP - it appears that I've been banned somehow, which is weird. Who can I contact about getting this lifted?
I see this issue is closed as completed. This is what I currently get, trying to visit https://www.pygame.org/docs/ref/pygame.html:

The pygame website is going down for a little nap.

NO LOUD NOISES... please :)

But, it still seems fully functional if I visit from a different IP address. This looks like exactly the same issue but with a new error message.
I’ve been getting exactly the same “No loud noises” error as @DavidBuchanan314 did last year for the last 24 hours or so whenever I try and access the front page of the website (pygame.org/news). This time though it seems like it’s happening across all my devices, on my home wifi and on cellular, both with and without my VPN active, which is a bit odd! The other odd thing is that I can still access the documentation pages and dashboard on all devices/networks just fine - it’s just the rest of the website that’s down!
