Is it just me or.....

Has the site been having problems the last week or so? I could not connect for most of today.

I had the same issue several times this week where the site would not respond at all for about 5-10 minutes. Not sure if this is due to maintenance, configuration issue or something like a DDoS attack.

I'm also curious about yesterday's outage. It was down for quite a while.

My money is on Russian hackers :wink:

I thought the problem could have been related to the "GDPR" issue, but now I see that the site was unavailable for American users too.

BTW, The Avianionist too has being down (ATM still unreachable).

Maybe a DDoS to take attention away from the new evidence for the Russian involvement in the shoot down of MH-17?
