Sorry for the Downtime - Justin S. - 05-26-2006

We are terribly sorry for the downtime that was experienced for most of today, as well as the later parts of yesterday. Due to the denial of service attack coming from multiple IP's, we could not just block one IP and get the problem fixed that way. To fix this, we had to change the server's IP, and therefor we had to fix all of our domains that you use to access CreateMyBB.

We appreciate your patience during the attack, and we hope that you will continue to use CreateMyBB to host your very own forum. We have taken steps to prevent this from happening again, and it should not happen again.

Thank you,
CreateMyBB Staff
