Apparently we were getting hit by a DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service) attack. Recon filtered the requests out so it's gone for now.

better question.

Why would you want to attack recon gamer. It is not like they have anything important (other than massassi, which if they wanted to attack, they would have attacked us directly).

Recon Gamer also hosts the site for the Half-Life mod "Firearms," and they used to host the Day of Defeat website as well.
