Is it just my internet service or are others having trouble opening ATS this September 11th?

Obviously I got on now, but over the last half hour it's been giving me a "page can't be displayed" message.

It's been in and out for me all morning- just ATS.... it doesn't seem to be a problem anywhere else I've surfed.

Yep, on and off for me as well. Last time this happened a member posted this website,
www.isitdownrightnow.com...

It let me know it wasn't just my confuser so I thought I would pass it along.

The messaging system is out as well.

Fricking bugs. I pretty sure it's pretty stressful at TAN HQ right about now.

At exactly 11:00 AM EST, on the 9|11 anniversary, we had a sudden flood of attack traffic. The attack method has been identified and mitigated.

A smaller attack also happened at 8:00 AM.

Was it a actual attack or just a huge sure in people visiting the site?

Also

why is the messaging function down?

edit on 11-9-2013 by OtherSideOfTheCoin because: (no reason given)

300x normal traffic level -- pretty much an attack.

The database specific to the messages needs a repair as queries are running very slow. I'm doing that tonight when traffic falls off.
