Well, I had a window open with Twitter, one open with The Blaze and couldn’t get into FR half the night. Did we ever get those new servers? (I have lightening internet thanks to the hubby’s job)

I see I multiple posted during that DDOS attack (I'm guessing it was an attack, anyway).

I don't know about their server upgrade, but even if they're new, a DDOS attack can still overload servers, because it's an attack that overwhelms the servers' ability to answer all incoming requests because of the massive incoming volume.

Your husband's job is good for fast Internet! Nice! :-)

I suspect you’re right.
