Ffs. Sorry to hear it, boss. As if you guys didn’t enough on your plate. I imagine the new platform will be more secure. Fingers crossed this passes quickly

It wasn't a hack mate, the forum itself is locked down tighter than a Scotsman's purse strings.

I don't understand why RWI is the target of these hacks and the other sites aren't.  (Not that I want anyone hacked).  It almost seems personal like someone has a issue with RWI specifically.   Best wishes to trailboss99 and crew getting it back up and running. 

Once again, this was NOT a hack. there was no security breach. As for why, we are the biggest target.  He's given up trying to sell data he never had in the first place (he got nothing in the last hack as far as we can tell, he just buggered stuff up) so maybe he thought he could keep us down and extort us that way.

Do you think they are directly targeting Replica watch sites? Or possible getting people’s email and personal details for identity theft purposes? 

Maybe they are just scum being scum 

This was a Denial of Service attack not a hack, the forum itself is locked down tight.  Your data is now a hell of a lot safer at RWI than it is at Facebook (yeah, not hard I know).

Hey now!  Us Scots are just frugal, not tight ;)  I prefer the term, "as tight as a nuns' noo noo" myself :lol:

Why just RWI over and over again? why this attacker is not attacking other forums?


That’s the million $ question. It’s not anger directed at rep fora generally, but a personal vendetta against RWI. My gut feeling is we might find our culprit in the Brig.

Sorry guys, we are being DDOS'd by someone, hard. Not much we can do but wait.

I noticed when RWI was down for the evening, TB.  I can only wish you and your team the best in your endless efforts to keep the Site open and operating.  I'm just sorry there's no way to track these bastards!!  I'll wait, of course.  GOOD LUCK.

^ this.

Words had today, things should get stable within a week. The best techs are looking into the setup and make sure it’ll be rock solid.

Sorry guys, looks like we are down again. Not sure on the reason as yet but given the length of time it could be our "friend" again.

Tbh when I was in the Brig I was so angry that  if I had the skills I probably would have tried to take the site down.
