Mr. White Posted June 20, 2012 Report Share Posted June 20, 2012 (edited) Funny, how [email protected] claimed the same a few days later. 04-23-2012, 11:26 PM Hello brothers, We faced in the last days a very wild DDOS attack which caused us to close the main forum for some testing purposes. Please rest assure that we still have a backup of our previous forum, so we didn't lose anything. Kindest regards, 05-02-2012, 11:40 PM Dear brothers, I'm not disappeared. I'll try to explain what happening lately and what we try to do. In the first days of this problem, we got too much visitors and they exceeded the website resources, while we're a new forum, we didn't expect that the visitors could exceed this limit under any means. While checking the logging tables, we discovered a very huge range of IPs from all countries trying to do DDOS attack. we blocked it manually for many days and we blocked some countries but that didn't solved the problem, we had hundreds of DDOS IPs . The website host suspended the account because of reaching and exceeding our resources. Everytime we open the forum, it keep loading on the server even while blocking too much IPs range. we updated the forum version because of some updates in "Apache" servers, may be our latest version caused the problem of this unusual loading, but as usual, the problems persisted. I opened this forum to : 1- test the database and many plugin and their working log. 2- check the IPs activities. 3- we will transfer our database to this new version, if there is no problem we will continue here, if not, we'll keep it private. This week the forum will working fine. Edited June 20, 2012 by Mr. White Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest nicebuns Posted June 20, 2012 Report Share Posted June 20, 2012 There was some good discussion and good people. But there was always something "off" about the admins. I figured they would do something like this eventually after they got enough "goodies". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joe_sixpack Posted June 21, 2012 Report Share Posted June 21, 2012 There was some good discussion and good people. But there was always something "off" about the admins. I figured they would do something like this eventually after they got enough "goodies". Well, the "goodies" were not necessarily (always) legal, so sooner or later someone was bound to go after them. I guess that's what happened. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FFRT Posted June 22, 2012 Report Share Posted June 22, 2012 whatever the story may be, TRaderzone Admin, never asked money from any of its members and have now disappeared , so whosover is planting that story is ill minded and with ulterior motive. For the time being, it is no more, and no point in debating. PEACE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. White Posted June 22, 2012 Report Share Posted June 22, 2012 (edited) some more hints: http://[email protected]/forums/showthread.php?1-This-is-a-testing-forum-only&p=90&viewfull=1#post90 So now my suspicion is verified, it was the same guy behind both speculationm@sters and traderszone. Admin,T-rex,veteran,cleopatra,tycoon are the same person. Edited June 22, 2012 by Mr. White Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PEACE Riiiight.... it couldn't possibly be that the guy who ran traderszone and speculationm@sters and shut down the sites for no apparent reason could have disappeared with the group buy money. Nope, those guys who are complaining in specul@tionmasters are just making up sinister lies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sm_jew Posted July 27, 2012 Report Share Posted July 27, 2012 Yeah, i was really interested in the discussion about Gann. Apparently, he died broke or so some people say. Alexander Elder is among them if I am not mistaken. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_domino Posted November 28, 2012 Report Share Posted November 28, 2012 Apparently, he died broke or so some people say. Alexander Elder is among them if I am not mistaken. I honestly don't believe that at all. I just read one of his books, tunnel thru the air, and one or two of his reading requirements. There is something to his writing that is so sincere. Seems like he wants to tell the world something. A man like that isn't after money imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aiden Posted December 22, 2012 Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 Hello Every Body !!! Within the very first days of this issue, we bought an excessive amount of site visitors and in addition they maxed the site resources, although we're the latest online community, we failed to assume that the site visitors might exceed this reduce within almost any means. I decided they might take action this way at some point as soon as they bought adequate "goodies". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
