I woke up, just like you with the text that said "ACCOUNT SUSPENDED"
Yesterday I gave GameOverViper the keys to the server to install the arcade, so I'm sure that has something to do with it. It was probably to big of a load on the server and they thought someone had hacked it, thus shutting it down.
Great. I wind up getting ads and putting all kinds of shit on the forum and two days later, blam, it's shut down.
And of course, I got ZERO emails. ZERO text mesages. ZERO Facebook messages to let me know WHY it was down.
Nah, I'm not pissed off at all. Can you feel that fucking sarcasm?

If this helps, I can help narrow down when it happened. I was on around 11 last night and it was working. I tried to get back on around 2 AM, and the "Account Suspended" message came up. I thought I had been banned for a day.

Yes, the data center, in the middle of the night suspended the account because of server load far in excess of the Terms of Service. I got an email at 02:19 from the data center. I'm not up reading my emails 24 hours a day so the first thing I knew about it was when I took my phone off the charger this morning. Sorry about that.
I'm not thinking it's anything that Viper did. I've been fending off "attacks" for a long time and blocking IP addresses on a daily basis. A few days ago, there was an "attack" that took the server load absolutely through the roof. I saw it and blocked the data center where it was coming from. It was requests for one thread after another from the forum coming from multiple IP addresses in the same block.
We're working with the guys in our data center to figure out what happened and how we can prevent it in the future.

cocky1 this is a temporary forum Kramer set up back in Sept last year when the forum was hacked, until the new forum was up and running. So some of us already had accounts on the temp forum. Hugo will get it fixed, he always does.

I thought I had an account here but apparently I didn't. Kelybel reporting in.
I have faith in our Hugo to get the job done!

According to Hugo, it was just a server overload - so hopefully it will be back up soon.
