Many users are experiencing difficulty accessing the site right now, due to a flood of malicious traffic. Please note: it’s not “hackers” taking us down. If hackers were people who hotwired cars to steal them, these people are just punks slashing tires with shiny knives they didn’t even make. We’re working with a number of people to get this stopped, including the FBI. We’re very sorry for the inconvenience.

It’s beyond me why anyone would bother wasting their time doing this kind of tomfoolery.
