im sure a temp fix could have been put in place and we could have been playing by now but what we need to remember is a temp fix will not solve the problem and we could be back in the same boat in a day or so .
i understand everyones anger and frustration but lets remain calm and let Blacklava and his tech team do their job and get the site back to where it should be . As a player on the real money side as well as the free side i want to know my play is safe and secure and if that means waiting i will wait .
for those of you pulling your hair and biting your nails try something new .it may surprise you but there is a big beautiful world out there !!! Try it you may even like it >

Yea Yoda, is what i have said all along...let the techies and BlackLava get it fixed....and someone called me a "suck-up" (to put it nicely) cause I said Lava and his team do a wonderful job. Let's just all hope the site is up and running soon.

CAN ANYBODY explain why this site is the only poker site being constantly attacked.......i left some time ago and found a site where i can play 24/7 without interruption...........i asked this question 2 hrs ago and IT WAS DELETED

[ForestKing]

If you mentioned the name of the other site be glad you didn't get banned.

I think if we had an answer you would too. I have no idea what drives a person to hack a site, create and send viruses, ect. Do you?

[cuddycat]

Im pretty sure it isnt the only site being constantly attacked and who is say that OP66 was the main target. My understanding is that there are other poker sites on this server system, so any one of them could have been the target.

A shutdown of all of these sites I am sure is the last thing anybody apart from the hackers wanted but is probably necessary to get to the bottom of the problems and to maintain security.

im on 20 or 30 sites per day, poker and other gambling sites and not once have i encountered this probllem

[bloodhoundsk9]

Has Lava gave an update lately? Just wondering if any idea how much longer the site will be down.

[Raz0r66]

Funny he did make a joke about being down for 3 days
i bet it will be down for the rest of the day and it will work tommorow :P
Anywayank you for the updates guys.

[Iwin41]

I find it a bit strange that we are not getting any updates this time.Does anyone know anything about when we might get back up and running?

[Carmine555]

UPDATE - The site will return to normal operations shortly after repairs from the terrorist attack are completed.

Yes, Andy, that was aimed at iwin. For all you other members, would you like me to post every 10 minutes to let you know the site is still down. I believe it would be easier for everybody to keep an eye on the thread that BlackLava started http://www.onlinepoker66.com/forum/f...owntime-18577/ to see when the tables are back up. Until then, read the Forums, play the games, or go outside and harrass the neighbors. Or, please be patient. It amazes me that anybody's first post on a forum would be in such a negative context.

[Iwin41]

I am very sorry I guess that came off the wrong way, did not mean to offend.

[tapit]

What games can we play do you mean Outlaws City. Are the other games as well.
I have read every thread there is and I don't play Outlaws City. I don't get that game.
If there are other games to play pleas direct me in the right direction.


Thank you tapit
