    If it was hacked you'd get the usual "this site has been h8cked by hAx0rs etc" etc etc, not the screen that a hosting company would put up.

    Why so quick to jump that it was hacked, when the evidence so far points an administration problem?

    Yeah I presumed you'd more info to go on, thats why I asked for links. I expected a statement from the owner or something?

    Because you won't be a conspiracy theorist if you didn't leap to the most hysterical and hyperbolic conclusion.

    Was pulling your leg 6th :)
    I visit that site everyday for a lot of my news.He updates in 3 or 4 times a day so he should have a statement up fairly fast i would imagine.

    Diogenes whats your favourite forum on here?

    Seems to be the problem with alot of these theories. Very few people actually "opening their mind", just repeating whats said on another site. The same people mock other for watching C4 news, or reading a paper.

    Not a personal go at you, a general comment.

    I'm not a computer expert though.
    But i do read all the news sites.I don't watch tv, so maybe i have an advantage over most people? :)But another valid point you make.I usualy read a lot on various theories and try look at both sides.

    How long has it been down for? And do you know anything about the previous times it was hacked?

    edit: just looking around the net and some people are saying that the ISP may have been what was hacked. Time will tell, I guess.

    It's there now. I like the quote he has on it now.
