Hello,

As many of you would have noticed we had approximately a 50 minute downtime. This was due to a denial-of-service attack. We have taken appropriate action to stop the attack, banning the IP addresses of current connections to our forums. Some of which, were legitimate connections.

If you for some reason, cannot access the web site please contact nathan@rsforums.org with the following details;
  • Full Name
  • Email Address
  • Internet Service Provider (ISP)
  • IP Address (obtained from WhatIsMyIP.com)

Now, I understand if your blocked you obviously cannot see this information. So I suggest you spread the word, make sure your friends can connect correctly and so on. It's the best we can do at this point.

If you have any information on the attack, please contact myself or Richard via the private message system.

Thanks,
Management
