    I thought it looked pretty bad when I tired to access as the site had completely disappeared. It wasn't just a degradation of service we were wiped off the net, I believe.

    May have been a practice run for other sites.

    Glad the hosting company mitigated the situation quickly, Skip.

    Can't imagine anyone actually attacking the site out of boredom, although stranger things have happened.

    Nonetheless, kudos to the hosting company and Hipforums brass for getting things up and running quickly.
