Honorbuddy not avaliable in Sweden/other countries?

[Ducks]

I wasn't sure where to put this but I hope some of the Mods can read this.

From today, I havent been able to connect to thebuddyforum, I thought maybe it was just a attack but then I asked a friend on skype, who is from sweden aswell and he had the same problem.
There were also rumors going around that the Germany-incident could spread to other contries aswell.

I tested using a program that I'm using in school aswell to be able to play game, which basicly makes it look like I'm in Canada at the moment while I'm still in Sweden. (Changing IP)

So.. afraid to ask but, is honorbuddy going to disappear in Sweden aswell or is this just a coincidence?

Regards
Ducks

Can't connect to the forum in the UK either unless I use American DNS servers

Well, I think they're installing CloudFlare (DDoS Protection) as my browser picked up on it and I hadn't noticed before. If this is true, it just may take them a while to get the settings right. I would just hang in there and hopefully things will be back to normal shortly. Again, just my thoughts

there are some technical issues

my friend is having this in the US he called is ISP and they cant get to it either, and if you go to the downforeveryoneorjustme.com it says the site is down. but im on the west coast in the US and have no problem. he is east coast.

That site is nice to use, but to be honest most sites will have it set so that people can't ping their websites (less attacks) so that site will say it's down (because ping is not bouncing back).

Hi,

I am a UK customer and for the last 48 hours I haven't been able to view the forums. I am now using a German p*roxy to view the forums:
4-p-r-o-x-y-.de

* Is the word p*roxy now censored by the forums? I have seen it used elsewhere without censorship, I apologise if I have violated terms and will edit the post accordingly if so. *

The above URL is safe and legit (I used bit.ly to shorten the url) -just enter the 'www.thebuddyforum.com' URL at the website and it will do the rest for you.

I think the mods should update their Twitter status to let international users know that the website is not down (ddos) and that there are ways of getting to the website. Searching Google for the latest news did not provide any official responses and the Twitter feed reads as if there is nothing wrong, which is disconcerting as I had presumed the buddyforum were under ddos attacks again... which always makes me worry as a paying (albeit very satisfied) customer.

Good luck with the technical issues guys!!
