Whats wrong? Anandtech Hacked?

No, because the main subscriber.anandtech.com page (which the forums.anandtech.com takes you to if you subscribe or you can go there direct) also had the message, as did www.anandtech.com, however the forums3.anandtech.com www2.anandtech.com subscriber2.anandtech.com etc addresses still worked. I'm inclined to belive zuni's version, since it fits the facts, and if it WAS hacked, surely the hacker could have come up with something better

One of the guys who posted in one of the threads about it had a pic. You didn't miss anything, a blank white screen with one sentnace, something like "You are not allowed here" if I remember correctly. I don't think it was hacked, just the load balancer died like Zuni (webmaster) said.

Who was it that was Windows bashing only to find out that this was a Linux problem? BAH!

Ya that happened to me once yesterday, at first I thought I might have been banned, but I instantly tried forums3 and everything worked.
