MODDB attacked announcements delayed!

Post by CBT02 »

http://www.moddb.com/news/ddos-causing- ... nstability

some hacker(s) is attacking the site with a distributed denial of service which can slow down the site or worse crash it.

due to this unexpected attack, further category announcements will be delayed.
Expect the site to be unstable while we attempt to keep the site running, and I thank you all for your patience and support. This is affecting ModDB, IndieDB and Desura.

We shall work hard to continue showcasing the best mod and indie games of 2010, but may have to delay the announcement of a few of the winners.

Probably because their little mod didn't make the top 100.

PR wasn't a nominate, [R-DEV]Rhino is behind the attacks!
[R-DEV]OkitaMakoto:"Cheers, you're the man, Okita"
[R-DEV]Rhino:"I in fact got kicked from a server for tking."
Hitperson:"well done, treasure it forever."
[R-DEV]Adriaan:"Damned classy Roma, if I may say so."
[R-DEV]Chuc:"Pro man, pro."
(yes, it was about me)
[R-MOD]BloodBane611:"Romagnolo, you definitely deserve a LOL award for that."

this explains the trouble I had yesterday accessing the site, hope it gets fixed fast.
I never understood the fun of this kind of things, it's like throwing a bomb on a wedding: not quite necessary and generally boozekill

oh and by the way: "Cie la vie" lol :p
