Is it just me, or was there server downtime for a significant period of time? (>30 minutes)
About half an hour before making this post, I mean of course it's working right now. I got an error code which I forgot to save when it finally loaded. Anybody else?

When you not sure if a website is offline for all people you can easily check it with a website like this: http://isitdownorjust.me/bitcointalk-org/. Other websites can do something similar for you but you can google that by yourself. |

Yeah. At first I was getting time out error but it changed to smf database error (website checkers don't see this as down) in the last few minutes. Probably just server overload or something.

Other websites can do something similar for you but you can google that by yourself. That site is not always correct. Sometimes the site is not down but you cannot access the website because it has some error. |

It was also down here. After a while the forum was back up, but the index page was only showing an error. It would be nice if the bitcointalk twitter account would be used to give people some information.

Probably there will be periodic downtime until they stop or until I figure out how to mitigate the attack. |

Yep, was down. Went out to the store to buy some melatonin for our clients, came back and it's up.
Did we get hacked?

I don't know but on a hidden market which I can't name, I saw a Bitcointalk.org accounts listing, so I would change my password ASAP. It had plenty of sales too. |

OK, that sounds like a damn good idea. But is that the old database or what? Like, last time we got hacked and had to change our passwords? Anyhow, thanks, gonna change it now. I removed that feedback BTW but you ought not deal in accounts. |

Forum was hacked in the past - so unless staff will confirm that today's forum outage is linked to database hack as well - I am gonna assume that they are selling database from from that previous hack. |

Yeah I noticed it too when I cant load the site even I had a stable connection, but thanks its litle bit fast. Just what happened few years ago. Our accounts are safe from hackers? Do we need to change our passwords because of this?

Given the circumstances, it wouldn't hurt to change passwords anyway, just for good measure. That's my thoughts on it at least. |

A DDoS attack takes a site down, it doesn't provide the attacker with any access.

Probably there will be periodic downtime until they stop or until I figure out how to mitigate the attack. You should make a thread with the details. Perhaps programmers would help you solve the problem. I know I would take a look and try to come up with solution. |
