I believe the server is under a DDOS attack, so all we can do is wait for them to combat it...

And the spam bots aren't related to that? I mean, shortly after I started having a lot of what look like spam bots, they never post and some names very weird we started the down times here... that's why I had wondered if they were connected.

Will be patient and backed up my portal too just in case.

If you have spambots then do one of two things; require either a visual confirmation code or e-mail verification or both.

I have both and...no spam bots.

On a topic-related note server 21 is still down and I'm still being patient.

Well, we have done everything we can to alert Limez about the issue and he has not responded (as usual). He has been inactive recently, which I believe due to business reasons. I have been inactive here to as well, because I am packing up and leaving staff here.

I wanted to give you a heads up that the issue may be a while to clear up.

Thanks.

Been there, destroyed that.

With visual confirmation think we still had the odd names, like one was buyviagara... etc. Being one with eye problems I wasn't sure if I'd be making things harder for some users... I know I've had to do those type of confirmations more than once myself.

Attitude, you'll be missed.

I can get on to both your forums through the link on the left, so they are 'up' in some sense......

Attitude - can I ask why you are leaving? Such a shame - you have always been so helpful on here. You'll be missed!

I appreciate we all have lives away from here, the staff included, but I just can't get my head around the lack of information at times. Loads of forum owners have left over the last couple of months and set up elsewhere and its a real shame - I don't want to join them....but......lets hope it gets sorted soon.
