I find it rather curious that the site would be down the few times I went to it today. Sure, it was also up (as I check the ticker), but I can't imagine a site would go down under such light load.

A site this hefty should be able to handle the load easily.

I refreshed and it came back up... but the ticker is down.

I wouldn't be surprised if the neo-cons are having fits and bringing it down.

if they are having trouble because so many people are on it, then we need to stay off of it. let those who are going to donate be able to load the page

Use this link. It still works.

Using this link I am able to see the ticker, but I am looking to donate a third time. Whenever I click the donate button, all it does is refresh the ticker.

Scroll down and you can enter your information. I almost got tricked by that as well.

the secure donation still works but the main site is down.
I wonder if hackers are attacking the site?

Unfortunately, only us are privy to the donation link. Everyone else is going to go to the main site.:(

I really doubt they would go after Ron Paul, but who knows. I think the site was overloaded by the thousands and thousands of people watching the ticker.

Probably, but I wouldn't put it past another campaign doing a DoS attack.

Agree that Anonymous wouldn't - but they did come to mind w/ their recent antics. Probably gave someone ideas...

Next time they should mirror the ticker and put something up saying just want to watch the ticker: go to ticker.ronpaul2012.com so people can donate here.

I think we need to stop looking at the site to find the ticker data, probably turn off some of those automated graphing programs too. It is more important that people can donate, than that we can see the total.

Site works off and on. Regardless, https://secure.ronpaul2012.com/ still works because it's on a secure server and separate from the main site (I think). Don't stop donating!

It's the MSM or corporate interests, they'll do anything to stop Ron Paul, including this.

We should start a separate thread about that so there is a better chance the media picks it up.
