:I didn't see any bot attack and i would say i frequented Recyclopedia until it went down. Why hasn't anyone salvaged the mysql from bobo? And as I said earlier I had a little accident and one of my fingers is quite badly hurt so please would you hold with this unrelevant and loosely claimed Wikmedia bashing. --[[User:Juxo|Juxo]] 21:35, 7 May 2004 (EEST) | :I didn't see any bot attack and i would say i frequented Recyclopedia until it went down.

::Local trolls are the best trolls. But no, there were several repeated and intense attacks in which the vandalbot changed the titles of pages to random ones, and then blanked them, making it quite difficult to restore pages and links. There were at least two such attacks, and these plus the "undoing" of the vandalism increased the traffic. It was probably a third attack that made Recyclopedia exceed its bandwidth limit - thus it was, legally, a [[denial of service attack]]. | |||
