I have no idea mate but you might be right as it seems like the caid 093b or something like that have failed to work. And that they are waiting on new cards to arrive or something along those lines.

All I know is that a few servers have failed to work and are now down.

I was speaking to one guy and he stated that they are waiting on the new OS cam as that will hopefully solve the problem.

They are knocking them off slowly.. One by One.

you might be right mate. Only Time will tell when more servers start to get knocked off to be honest.

Usually they knock them off all in one go as they did 2 yrs ago if memory serves me right and not to mention they do it when the Footie season starts or when the champs league is starting.

Maybe they have just detected a few cards used on servers - don't they also occasionally kill UK cards they detect are used for CS?

Not true. There are many UK cards that have been switched off when caught C/S'ing.
Check the posts on the ECS forum.
Lots of speculation there about just "how" Sly find out.

Yes, several threads on various forums about accounts being terminated and cards de-activated. Some have suggested that it's just scaremongering but there seems to be enough posts to suggest there is something in it.
