Toribash was NOT attacked it was mearily caught in the crossfire. I expect it to be fixed in 3-4 buisiness days from my previous experience.

What? No. Toribash is definitely not on the same server as anyone else. We have 6 dedicated servers. They are:
2 x Quad-Core Xeon, 4gb RAM, 3 x 146 GB SAS HDD, RAID 5, with 2000 GB on 100 Mbps Port.We do not share our stuff with anyone else, except the network we're on. Our database is on another server to take the load off the www server. However what happened, is we're on a shared switch and another server was DDoSed and therefore, the time it took from www -> database took forever and queries kept piling up and breaking.
So please, refrain from saying stuff unless you have inside knowledge.
