WTF IS WITH BHB......

[G.MONEY]

WELL IT HAS BEEN JUST ABOUT 1 WEEK AND STILL NO INTERNET SITE UP. I GUESS THERE INTERNET BUISNESS MUST NOT BE MUCH. AND I BELIEVE IT WILL BE EVEN LESS WHEN THEY FINALLY GET BACK ON LINE. I WILL BE GONE AND I KNOW OTHERS WILL AS WELL.

I KNOW I CAN CALL ME BET'S IN BUT THAT IS NOT WHAT I WANT TO DO...SO PLEASE DON'T SAY THE PHONE LINES ARE OPEN. THIS IS A SERVICE BUISNESS AND THEY ARE PROVIDING NO SERVICE ...........

I am pulling out after this weekend myself. Besides the bonus(which is ridiculously kept seperate from your balance) this book doesn't offer anything so great. For us to have to put up with a book with no website for this long is crazy.

 

[Fishhead]

Sorry to hear.

Hopefully, BHB will be along shortly and give us an update.

 

[G.MONEY]

FRANKIE,

I KNOW OF AT LEAST 5 OTHERS THAT ARE GOING AS WELL....AND THERE COMMUNICATION ON THIS HAS REALLY SUCKED...............G.

 

[MrKennedy]

maybe more than meets the eye here.. I hope not.

G Money, these DOS attacks are a real Mother F..er. If you don't pay these guys, it can be a long, long time before you can get back up. I think that everyone out there who has a book that has been attacked should not use that alone as a springboard to leave that book. By abandoning the books that are subjected to DOS, you are only fueling the attackers fires, causing them to continue their assault on these books. Just my humble opinion.

I MUST AGREE WITH THAT....WHILE IT IS VERY FRUSTRATING TO NOT BE ABLE TO GET IN, THE BOOKS THAT DO NOT PAY SHOULD BE REWARDED INSTEAD OF PUNISHED.....THAT IS THE ONLY WAY THIS WILL END.........SEVERELY DAMAGING A BOOK IS WHAT THEY HOPE TO ACCOMPLISH, THEREFORE MAKING IT EASIER TO DEMAND THE MONEY, IF THEIR B/S DOESNT HAVE ANY REAL EFFECT ON THE BUSINESS OF THE BOOK, THEN THEIR LEVERAGE IS MINIMIZED....

Bucks:

I know books that have been attacked, fixed their problems and HAVE NOT PAID - and are going strong as we speak.

 

[ignorant]

The book did not pay and this sucks. Not to the extortionists, but for hardware upgrade -- costs are similar.

 

[G.MONEY]

I DO NOT KNOW WHO HAS PAID AND WHO HAS NOT. BUT I CAN TELL YOU FROM WHAT I SEE ON THE BOARDS THEY HAVE BEEN DOWN THE LONGEST. AND WHY NOT SOME INFO POSTED HERE DAILY, COMMUNICATON REALLY HELPS..........G.

G. Money, a thread has been on the front page everyday. But, we're very sorry for not responding to your thread. There has been emailing between us and the hackers. We believe we've found a solution but to get everything in place will take a few days.
We will keep you updated and sorry for the inconvenience.

THANK YOU FOR RESPONDING, BUT I WOULD NOT HAVE STARTED THIS THREAD IF THERE WAS SOMETHING IN THIS FORUM THIS MORNING.............G.

I feel sorry for these guys. They were on CNN yesterday. What tough luck.

Your not paying them are you?

You have held out this long. I will stay as long as you don't pay.

Customers who leave a book because of a DoS attack only strengthen the hand of the attackers. The less financial pain a book feels from customers who get fed up after a only a week then the more willing they will be to resist the attackers. Sometimes even the customers have to take one for the team and the greater good.

Monicus,

No, we will not give in to the hackers. I thank you for continuing to play at BHB during our downtime on the internet.

Happy Thanksgiving
