I managed to get into the forum and the admin posted:
"Its a new sort off attack
its called syn flood, don't know what that means
People from host are looking into this
Sorry again for this
everything was going fine again and now this...."
So they're working on it, i hope it wont take too long and that the payments wont be delayed too much.

How interesting. They can't pay because of a "new sort of attack". When all else fails, make up something that can't be verified. I have a cashout waiting but I won't be holding my breath. If I get it, I'll be happy. But the skeptical side in me says you can kiss your earnings goodbye because something new will come up after the "syn flood".

Well, I did find some information about a syn attack. Seems it isn't all that "new" after all. And the most interesting think I found was:
The syn flood is a well known type of attack and is generally not effective against modern networks.
Guess they should be talking to their hosts about why this is such a problem.

Thansk for the info. My premium membership is going to expire in two weeks and I won't get my first payout before that happens. Will my payout get delayed when my membership expires? or will they still pay me according to premium status because I requested the payout when I was a premium member? ANybodyhas any idea?
