Probably exceeded their bandwidth. They tend to do that around the end of the month sometimes....

I joined there a few weeks ago and have been wondering what's going on. I've been tying to get on all day!

Yeah fellas, I just wanted to add that "I feel your pain" as well.....
I don't post on that site a whole lot, but I was just getting some "traction" on a gun trade I wanted to follow up on. Bummer when the site goes dark at the critical moment!

Take it easy - it'll be back up soon enough. Of course, I'm pretty p-o'ed that my potential deals are in limbo!!

Several gun sites have been hacked recently. This one may be on the list.

yah, still not up. I was going to purchase something but now I have no idea how to get a hold of the guy. Lesson learned though, I'm going thru email as a back up from now on.

Well, there's always the VGOF Marketplace, which is up all of the time

Bad news !!

A hacker that calls himself tn-pirate hacked the server at MindRaven, the server I am on. Wiped out the server and put up his muslim garbage.
Here is some of his handy work - http://visiontechss.com/

So hopefully Mindraven has us back up using a saved backup files.

sorry guys !!!!!

we need to find the guy that did this

VaGunTrader · Post by **VaGunTrader** » Sat, 28 Jan 2012 15:58:55

his email address is

tn-pirate@hotmail.fr

but what do you tell him?

dont mention vaguntrader or he might direct his attention to me

tell him SEAL TEAM 6 is on the way.

It hurts any purported cause.

Well, glad to hear that it should be on the restore. I'm sure it was just a known exploit; nothing innovative here. It underscores the importance of daily backups as this is more likely the fault of the server/farm owner not staying current on revisions and security patches rather than the owner of the board who is merely using space.

Either way, best of luck getting it back up. It gave me an excuse to sign up on this board that I have lurked around for well over a year.

No worries; can't very well blame you for the lack of courtesy and respect on the part of someone that you've never met, can I?

I note that the offending D-bag arrogantly posted his email address. Got any counter-hackers in the room?

Frost · Post by **Frost** » Sat, 28 Jan 2012 16:05:46

he gets around... google his email address and see.

I tried to log on yesterday and was led to a page saying VAGT had been hacked. I emailed VAGT to see when he might be back online but no response yet. I suspect he's busy. Meanwhile if the guy who I'm meeting next week to get some P228 mags from finds this, please get in touch I didn't get your number from your PM before the site went down.

"Hotmail.FR" The "FR" is for "France".

But the useless piece of space is probably on an IP rotator with a spoof program to appear overseas.

Yeah, i deal with these kinda POS's DAILY!
