Is it just me? Or is Subsim.com under some form of DoS attack?

I'm getting really lagging performance connecting to this site. Maybe a server is hiccuping or something. Maybe I just have a bad router on one of the hops to subsim. Either way, it is painfully slow to surf or post here for the last couple days.

Anyone else having this problem?

I got slow loading before but its okay now. Oh and GWX 2 is being downloaded as we speak by 100's of fans, the server could be on redalert

As I suspected - a DoS attack.

Definitely this forum, other forums react normal.

Could be the weather.

With all these ice storms and such flying around, power is becoming more and more important, hence more and more is being drained.
