There are plenty of ways around a ddos attack, a ddos attack only effects one server so why don’t they just switch servers while they sort the ddos attack problem? They could even switch hosting companies which would solve the problem rather than stay offline for days on end. A ddos attack doesn’t affect the members accounts or investments so it’s not like they can’t carry on, the only problem a ddos attack really causes is the members can’t view the website, it’s still there in tact. I beleive some owners to be using the ddos attacks as an excuse.
Also it doesn’t take a few minutes to send the members a mass email explaining each day how things are going, what they trying to do to get around the problem and even ask for suggestions. (if they are genuine)
Your thoughts please:)

for me i find it very skeptical. i’ll see the possibility of it biting the dust is very high. might just be an excuse to end everything.
