Re: Server Downtime

I am glad it is getting back to normal for more people now.

I had about 2 hours total downtime yesterday, with the site crawling sometimes and being speedy others. I know for certain that others have had it much worse though, people like Dave have been totally unable to access it for almost 24 hours which is not good for us or for you.

Again we can only apologise but this was caused by a malicious attack on a different site, hosted on the same server as us. Funny enough it was a football site and the timing was planned perfectly for the beginning of the world cup.

There was not a great deal we could have done to prevent it but hopefully it will be an isolated incident.
