COULD ALL MEMBERS PLEASE READ AND TAKE ACTION!!
Following the thread of a DoS (Denial of Service) attack being launched against digitalworldz a few extra security measures have been implemented for the next few weeks in order to protect the site and to minimise the potential risk of any downtime in the event of an attempted attack. We would like to try and internally reconstruct a Dos attack and therefor need as many members help as possible.
If you value the uptime of digitalworldz PLEASE help us test the implemented security measures.
To internally reconstruct a DoS attack we need to have a high flow of encrypted data traveling through the forum software all at once. In order to achieve this we have set up a private message account to deal with this as all private messages are encrypted. If you could click the link below and type anything randomly into the subject line and body of the message then send it we can begin the testing procedure, and with any luck we will have no downtime at all. Please DO NOT change the recipient of the private message as this is a vital internal part of the testing procedure.
Thank you for taking the time to protect, and ensure that digital worldz stays the number one community on the net.
This was a wind up, thanks for taking part
