Was Neowin being DDoS'd or hacked?


Recommended Posts

What happen to Neowin earlier?  Was someone attempting to hack?  Site was down for quite a long time.  I thought the people who dislike the new design might go that route and protest their feelings in that manor...

Probably just regular maintenance/fixes/things they are addressing.  Always happens when this site is redesigned.  Will probably be back to normal in a few days or sooner.  Same thing happened yesterday and the day before.

Ive been on and off throughout the day and have not had any issues..  

 

I seriously doubt someone would go through the trouble of a ddos over the new design (so I hope you were just joking)

There are still some things being worked on. No matter how long you work on something in development, releasing it to a wider audience will bring about unexpected effects. Just taking a look in the forum that you posted this in, I can see about 7 separate threads which have individual errors that weren't picked up during testing (that I know of, anyway.)

Give it a couple of days to settle. (Y)

When clicking "Quoted" in my notification, the following happens appears on a blank screen:

{"status":"ok","data":"[quote=Nashy said,]\n\nNot that it matters. Something so simple should have been found in testing.[\/quote]"}
