Our website is a victim of an ongoing DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service) attack. Our IT department has been working to fix the issues and block the attack from continuing, but they've been ramping up their efforts as well. Our site works intermittently, but sometimes it is very slow.

Only recently has that been the case. Those have actually been fairly benign. For the most part though, hackers just cause misery for everyday people. Viruses, malware, stealing information, bringing down sites, hacking emails, stealing bandwidth from their neighbors/companies, etc. Just look at all the crap you have to have on your PC just to protect yourself. How often does your PC have to spend running updates on all that just to keep current with the latest malware?? Virus protection, adware protection, firewalls, etc. All that slows down your PC. A bunch a Worthless losers they are.

I say to give the hackers a stop and go or to dock them a lap
this is how much money we spend on our hobby even hackers are attacking websites to get info to steal, it is a multimillion dollar business and they are on to us now

Site Update:
The site should be running as normal. Of course, we'll be closely monitoring what happens today in case we get hit again, but the IT guys have been working to stop more problems from happening.
PrestonG - The issues did have an affect on order processing these last couple of days, but we should be getting caught up. I'm very sorry for the hold-up, and I appreciate your patience.
Thank you, everyone, for your understanding and sticking with it through the issues this week. You're awesome!
