An attempt was made...

An attempt was made to bring the forum down by flooding it with requests. I took the forum offline temporarily to make a quick change to the DNS structure which should help prevent that in the future as well as uncover the perpetrator. You don't need to understand what all that means neccesarily but if you did try to get on in the last hour and were unable, that is what was going on. Please notify us if you have any issues...

Thanks

Bummer! :(
I did notice that the site was unreachable earlier. Odd that it should happen when you're just getting started. I hope there won't be further attacks.

Yes, it is "odd", but I suspect it was not "random"...

That occurred to me. Hope it's not the case, but ... :x
