If you tried to access the site earlier today and couldn't, it's because the server where the site is hosted was under attack by hackers.  :gah:

Everything is back to normal now. Whew!   :yays:

They didn't get anything of concern did they?  Was it MKC?  :laugh3:

True tolerance is loving someone despite actually disagreeing with them.  There is nothing to tolerate if you are not bothered.

Honesty and transparency are virtues to be treasured - don't hide your beliefs in the name of tolerance, be honest about where you stand, just do it with love. smiley

RTP...nothing here was affected. It was a general attack on the server, not this site.

I've never understood hackers. Guess some people don't have anything better to do...

Cadillacs? We don't need no stinkin' Cadillacs!

I have noticed one thing different since yesterday.  I can't get the Arcade games to load.  It could just be my internet connection.  Anyone else having this problem?

Stampman, I have had no trouble with the arcade games.  I'm not a real computer guru, so I can't offer any solutions, sorry!

Stampman, they're working for me.

I just want to let everyone know that I talked to the webhost because I noticed some problems elsewhere on the site and the server attack has not been resolved. 

Just want you all to know in case there are some things that don't work as usual.

I should be able to tell when things are completely back to normal and I'll keep you posted.

I was worried when I couldn't log on for several hours.  I am glad to see everything is up and running.

I was able to download Blix but not some of the others.  I guess it's just a real slow connection.  See my comment at the BLIX game on how to play it.
