1. We stopped their attacks many times before and so now they have started new types of attacks to get around Shlomo's protective measures.
2. The reason the site is offline sometimes is because the attackers are unable to hack the server and get into the server itself. So they can only attack it externally which has caused disruptions to the site - it's offline sometimes or there is a "Reset" message sometimes.
3. The site is completely safe. The attackers cannot get into the server itself. They can cause inconvenience but they cannot get into the server. In the five years since we are running these forums, no one has ever had their account hacked. Not once. I removed an earlier thread because it was spreading misinformation that will only help the attackers.
4. These attacks will only make us stronger, G-d willing.
5. Shlomo is working on ways to stop the attacks.
