Hey guys,

Don't know if anyone has mentioned but gg are apparently under attack from a DDOS... It's definitely been on and off for the last 24hrs+ but no word on what the cause is.

Somebody posted on the forums to make sure u were topped up as they were going to attack it...

Then it went down.

Charlie.

I bet the complaints are about to start flooding in...
