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.

Teehee, at least my O2 app doesn't think I've never had any data anymore!

That was freaky for a moment!
