I can understand the frustration indeed. I myself am suffering alot of issues with our servers at work right now, so there is no need to appologise

You are doing the best you can, how can we ask more? Keep it up Brian, really love the forum.

Absolutely no need whatsoever to apologise Brian. I'm sure all the users fully understand the hardwork you and all of the moderators put in to keep this excellent forum running. So if we have to put up with these issues from time to time, there's no problem from this user and all others I'm sure! Keep up the good work mate.

The attitude of this forum is certainly different!
True thanks to an admin who sticks their hand up and says sorry.
I've seen so much good stuff in the short time I've been here, keep it going everyone.
Thanks!!!

Yep, another attempt at a DDoS with a 700 MBps spike, but luckily we were able to cope with it.

I wondered, thanks for keeping up all this work Brian, you are a real diamond mate.

When pinging I was getting 75% losses to the website, let alone the forums.

Does it not seem a little coincidental that virmin fry a load of clones, and then suddenly we get another ddos attack.

It's all a little too suspicious if you ask me.
