Trik.com Downtime and Capitalizing on a misfortune!

Quote:

Well, you all probably have been wondering why Trik.com has been down. We have been dDosed and our hosting was having problems. I am glad to announce we are no longer being attacked. Let me tell you all: do not talk shit to l33th4ck3r. He’s a good guy. Do not mess with him at all.

However on a better note, I have now gotten Trik.com a Dedicated Hosting Server. We will no longer be slow, we will no longer go down. We have a very expensive Dedicated Host.

Regarding the Shoutbox:

We put one in, however it is VERY exploitable. We will only be adding a shoutbox if we are 100% sure we will not be exploited because of it.

Again, I apologize for any in-convenience.

Faster? I think you're being DDoS'ed again.. It was for one day - but for the whole of yesterday I was getting 403 Forbidden errors. I got on occasionally and when I did it was super slow and I didn't even get a chance to view another page...

This happen to anyone else?

EDIT: Just saw the other broadcast, and everything is going nicely and fast today...
