I don't think it was big enough to be a DDoS, but I don't know much about those either. I know there's a few different forms of it. If anything it seemed like the site was at a high traffic level, yet not many members and guests were on as opposed to the usual.

Everything I've learned about the internet or computers I've learned from just being logged on. Haven't had any specific classes on it myself. So I'm only about average on this stuff lol
