Why was WHT down tonight? :(
Just curious why WHT was down. Inquiring minds demand to know!

Relayed messages weren't all that helpful, but I believe it was a hardware issue.

At this time we have it mitigated but users might notice intermittent outages from further attacks. Right now our mitigation hardware is seeing 150k+ PPS.

I suppose that only reinforces that certain folks were rightly banned from here. Good luck stopping this attack and future ones.
If you have to operate your company behind the scenes or under a fake name, maybe it's time to leave the industry and start something fresh.

Was this going on for a few days? I've noticed having to click things two or three times before the pages catch.

No problems over days. It was out for about two hours today.

I noticed that last night it wasn't working... Every 2 out of 5 pings were being replied to and the ones that did come back were SLOW! Why would anyone want to attack WHT?!
