Site Explanation
Could we please get someone of authority in here to let us know what the hell is going on with the site? Everyone has been complaining lately but nobody is telling us what is going on. Atleast put something up in the forums letting us know what the changes are that you are doing or updates or whatever so maybe we won't get ticked off as much.
Anyone? Anyone? Beuller? Beuller? |
yah... ****in time machine mode again
:wtf: |
Our server has been under attack for the last couple of days... Every time we think we've got it secure enough an attack comes from another location. And then while we're working to secure it, the data center pulls the plug on the server to prevent further attacks. It's frustrating for all of us, just hang in there and we'll have this sorted out as soon as we can.

Thanks for the update.

Keep your fingers crossed. |
