Dang, I can't offer Wayne a thing. I could consult on safety. Do you need hardhats and safety glasses for this kind of attack?

DDOS a board like this? Who have you kicked off the forums recently?

Seriously though...
Have you received a Western Union ransom message or anything? This stuff is usually about money.
Also any idea how many IPs are hitting you?

I think this is when you knock off the hippy shciese, strap on a helmet, and start shooting...

He'd probably appreciate cold beverages and moral support, I have a feeling its going to be a long night at the PP offices...

Weird, just noticed and after reading these post, didn't know the 914 to this day is a controversy. C'mon, shave them pork chops and rid those bell bottom flairs, get a real Porsche... (kiddin', love them 914's).

I'm outa here and I have faith in Wayne and gang.

Try cialis... works better.

Just checked and my two bulletin boards are not effected so the idiots are not looking there. Hope they are caught and we can turn them over to someone with some steel pipes and let them have a party out in the countryside!
