	They were attacked with DDoS by some a**d. Either some random person that got upset from getting banned from the TGO site or some anti-gun p*k. In any case, damn. I haven't been active lately so I haven't noticed. Working alright at the moment.

	Distributed Denial of Service attack. They pretty much bombard the server(s) with incoming packets until the server is full and can't keep up with the replies, then it either shuts down, or runs so slow that it's barely usable.

	I thought they said that it was specifically TGO that was getting DDoS'd, and since USGO is on the same server, it suffers too.

If we can get the webadress or IP of the person who did this, we can hit them back. wink Google search: LOIC

	Sounds vaguely familiar, except that it was /b/ that I heard was DDoS'd. According to my friend, it crashed a week ago, and was still down Tuesday.
