Site under Cyber attack. [Mod -- seems back up again]

[Tarzan]

Maybe its all those Facebook users pissed off for being spammed.

 

[Brian4Liberty]

The irony during the last GOP debate was the candidates saying that any cyber attack on the US is an act of war, and at the same time applauding US related cyber attacks on other countries. Perhaps Pawlenty is leading this cyber attack, as he seemed to think it was a great idea.

Does the official campaign even control the facebook page?

Yes they set it up and it is run by John Tate and the rest of the Campaign.

If the main site goes down, couldnt they redirect people to iowaforronpaul.com and have donations come in from there?

 

[Razmear]

my ticker at: http://rp12.com/ is working again. The official site is loading, but slowly. Probably everyone who saw the note on FB is now reloading the page to see if it's up or not.

I am guessing people on the extreme right don't like Dr. Paul gaining strength. Still why do this? Dr Paul will get the donation either today, tomorrow or date after tomorrow.

Someone who knows the webmaster of ronpaul2012.com, tell them to use http://www.cloudflare.com asap. It will help stop ddos attack right away

 

[CaseyJones]

*facepalm* anyone think it might just be people refreshing the page watching the ticker?

DIGG this! Ron Paul's website attacked by hackers

http://digg.com/news/politics/ron_paul_s_website_cyber_attacked_by_hackers

[bb_dg]

No!!! I won't let them!!! ugh...I don't think there's anything I can do...

 

[kill the banks]

banksters hack Ron Paul get life

Why wouldn't we? Even if its not true it still could get covered by the media and give Ron Paul more air time.

I CANNOT DONATE and IM PISSED!!!! Everytime I click donate it misinterprets my address. GRRRRRRR I will DOUBLE my donations guys LET GOOOOOOOOOOO !!!!!!


Got it.

Anyone just ticker watching is welcome to do so at my site. They are using a new ticker on the Ron Paul site, but the same data feed. The data feed is only a very small text based page which loads from their servers instead of reloading the entire website every time you want to see the updates.
link is http://rp12.com there are no ads or anything else distracting there, and I don't profit or loss from page loads.

There's other weird stuff going on with the site.
When I go to donate and it asks me to verify my name and address, it completely changes my info. If this is happening to other people, it could cause some serious problems.

Iowa projects led me here - still working - https://secure.ronpaul2012.com/?sr=PIA1105B

When I first went to donate earlier this morning the site kept kicking out my donation because it didn't recognize my debit card, which I have used before to donate to the site a few months ago.

I was able to donate using an different card but it was strange.

What do you mean? Be more specific please.

Do people on the far right even know how to use computers?

Let's not start speculating.

What do you mean? Be more specific please.

When it asks me to verify my address it returns different numbers for the house number, and it adds a 3rd line which is a partial copy of my street address.
