Yes and I'm doing them now, but it wouldn't be smart to discuss that publicly.

Man that is a powerful gif. lol

How is that not already an official forum GIF? Can we start a petition on Change.org to force Roosh/Tuth to make it an official forum GIF?

What did i do wrong?
Roosh states on his Twitter that traffic to his website was 55Gbps. That is not "wetblanket faggottry", but quite big botnet of computers. Please protect our email database, I hope it is encrypted

We could use twitter in the time being....or a chatroom of some sort as a backup option.

You would do well to change it to an alternate, it's like having a burner phone. I'd never use my real email here.

There will be a planned server interruption shortly. It shouldn't be more than 30 minutes.

How would we maintain contact in these situations if a lot of us don't use social media, does the chat room still exist?

Yup. I'm on it now!

They probably just paid some russian company to do it, it's not that hard. Someone is spending decent dough to make this happen though.

Was the last downtime due to the server or was it another DDOS attack??

Or did a white knight Mangina find where the RVF server was and throw beer on it???

I have a friend that does this for a living. If you want me to ask him anything let me know.

Any security experts here that know more about it than I do?

This forum runs on mybb, as long as security patches are being applied, there shouldnt be much of a problem

Also, forum users should only log in with an email address they don't use for anything else

I'm sure the large majority of us who registered several years ago, before so much main stream attention, didn't register with a fake email address.

I don't really care because they can't hurt me, but I don't have a standard job either.

edit: looks like you can change your email address here: /usercp.php?action=email

How easy or hard would it be to pinpoint the culprit behind a DDOS? Even if we could, how would we get those who paid for this?

It can be very difficult because they are probably using a botnet they own or are renting. ( his words from text)

My reply had nothing to do with your post....

It was a joke about starting a petition to make that "Suspicious Roosh" GIF an official forum GIF.

I'm one of those guys who unwittingly used my real email to sign up not knowing the forum itself was commonly targeted.

I have strict military job, but will I care if my name gets leaked?
At this point of seeing so much and having so much Pc nonsense navigating my public life(and all of our lives) I stopped caring so much. I found out the reserves don't tend to give bad conduct discharges except for the most grave offenses, so now I really could give a shit less. I'm don playing the game and going public is become more and more alluring

Hopefully ROK will be back up tonight.
