Anyone know what's happened to Abruzzolutely?

Just tried to go there and get a "Forbidden" notice.

Both from my favourites, and via Google.

L'uomodellaluna, I would guess their server is down which has happened before, but is not normally for more than a few minutes. Perhaps there is a little bit of a bigger problem at the moment....  Smile

... just checked a little more ... the server is up HERE , but the forum is down. Very much like this forum, it is run by a very kind individual who I'm sure will be aware of the problem and trying to fix it.

Been in touch with the person that runs the site. The forum server is down due to "high traffic" problems. Think you can read this as there being a problem with access from certain addresses in China! Hopefully it will be sorted shortly. Think this is a problem that will only get worse over time until something is done about this country (and others) who are intent on ruling the world one way or another....
I was asked to pass this on to any forum users and would ask anyone here to do the same should they be in contact with others from the abruzzolutely forum.

Good of you to let us know steve, and I'm pleased to hear there is nothing amiss locally. It's still down - but it is a weekend, and maybe it will take a bit of time to sort out this problem. 
It sounds like a DNOS type thing, inflicted on an innocent little forum quite by chance. 
Nothing personal by the Chinese - but maybe somebody mentioned a country which has a capital city beginning with K. 
See how careful I am being!

Yeh! I have had similar thoughts on the subject, but to be really blunt about these countries I would have a small list and block the IP address range. A bit drastic, but hey these people are really getting out of order. From what I understand the IP addresses are known so in this case so they are not "state" as they would cover themselves a lot better and you would not know where they are from..

Site looks like it's back, but not sure in what state, could just be a lack of recent posts or the late hour....  Smile  Smile  Smile
