UK Vapers are currently been subjected to a DDOS attack  & the admin have taken the forum down to protect it. In the meantime, if any UKV'ers are lurking here, hope you know you are all very welcome to come & chat etc  |

It's not a DDOS, it's me pressing F5 on the for sales thread looking for the Penny :-)

I think it's so sad - it's like a large part of the vaping community is being attacked What the heck is wrong with people to do things like this > |

Whats does DDOS mean? sorry for being dumb! I probably know but just forgot!
There has certainly been some saboteurs in there lately for want of a better phrase!
This one and UKV are the only 2 sites worth belonging to on the net - so sad - lets hope they can sort it out!

If it is under attack, then I think it is bloody disgusting |

It's going to be up and down forever now, until it is closed permanently I'm afraid! They're going to have to totally change their name - taking out the UKV (as it's just getting destroyed by haters - for some bizarre reason)!
Perhaps they should make it by invitation only to trusted members!
Just my thoughts, Jules
