China pounding on us!
 

Just now we were getting a ton of search requests from an IP address in China, which was making the system incredibly slow. I banned their address and things are OK now.

I wondered: I kept getting a "database error" message.

Thanks UT!

First look at thread title I thought maybe we were suddenly at war!

We Are! Quick hide under your desk.

Gawd I hope they get this place first. I'm so pissed off right now I can't see straight.

Is the Unabomber cabin under attack?

They took the damn thing.

Crap.

Wait a minute, is this all because of the aliens accidentally going to China? OVER HERE! I'M READY TO LEAVE THIS FSM-FORSAKEN PLANET.

What have you got against being pounded on by Chinese? That's racist!

Little. Yellow. Different. Better. (used to be a commercial)
:bolt:

Do you know what the search terms were?

what is the point of something like that? what can they gain?

Tapping into our world problems solving skills.:rolleyes:

I didn't check what the terms were, I just saw 800 attempts per minute to load up search.php which is the search module.

They want to bring down our Nuclear Power Plant!

They're looking for the money we owe them after hearing rumors that Americans like to hide their money in their cellars. All they'll find are dead hobos here.

They are trying to find out who won the Nobel Peace Prize, which China has blanked.
