unbelievableOn the weekend of the biggest movie opening ever, my Web host’s network provider was coming under a DDoS attack. That’s why the site was down both this morning and again for a few hours this evening. They tell me it’s all fixed and better now. I’m keeping my fingers crossed. And I’m not thinking about what kind of traffic I lost. Not thinking about it at all. support

Huh. I never saw any problems, myself.
People who hack networks, people who write spyware and viruses, and people who steal identities should be thrown in a deep, dark hole and never allowed to come out until their minds are too feeble from old age for them to screw up other people's lives any more.

Forgive my total ignorance, I've never maintained a website. Is there a particular reason why you need traffic?

Oh, duh. Don't answer that. I use an adblocker, didn't even realize that you had ads on the site.
I can probably remove the adblock for this site, but I'd be happier to donate via paypal or something. I hate ads.

I promise you all that the day I win the lottery, inherit a fortune, or marry a millionaire, I'll remove all the ads from this site.
I wonder what my ad revenue would be like if no one was using adblockers. I hate ads too, but I also don't expect to get something for nothing.

Nor do I, hence the paypal offer.
Anyhoo, I unblocked, so now I know that zoompanel is offering free DVDs for taking surveys :P

I am no longer actively soliciting donations, but I can't stop anyone from sending me money. And all anyone needs to send money to anyone else via Paypal is an email address. I've made no secret of mine...
