So last night I had an obscene amount of tabs open in my browser, around 50-60 tabs of all LCPDFR that I was planning on downloading (script mods, vehicle packs, etc. since I just redownloaded GTA V and refreshed everything after a year hiatus) but ran out of time since it got to be too late. Context to this next part: on my browser I have the feature enabled to reopen all tabs that weren't closed from the last session. This morning when I woke up and reopened my browser, every single one of those tabs opened and tried connecting at the same time. About 15 of them loaded, and the rest gave "429 - Too many requests" errors. So I figured I must have overloaded the server and just needed to wait before retrying my connection. I closed everything and tried reconnecting to LCPDFR.com again but this time, it wouldn't load, and the most I would get is an "ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT" message from my browser (Opera GX). I've now been trying for around an hour or two to connect but I'm getting the same error and I'm assuming the worst.

 

I know I'm a moron, but I really don't know what to do now. The only way I can connect now is with a VPN, and I'm assuming its because my public IPv4 has been blocked/banned by the website permanently. Are there any admins that can help me out?

 

Edit: I'm currently using a VPN to connect and its fine, that's how I was able to connect and post this.

Apparently I didn't wait long enough, since I'm now able to connect without using a VPN.
