Title: Has Anyone Been Able To Connect To SR???
Post by: waterfun70 on April 30, 2013, 01:06 pm
I'm just curious if anyone has been able to connect to SR in the past 2 days? I've read that the site is under attack again, but is it completely down?

It was up very briefly yesterday morning. It's going to be down for at least a few more days.

Funny how DPR is claiming this is still a DDOS, when every other tor site is running like lightning. Hopefully the lies stop soon.

Requests to one hidden service don't affect all hidden services equally.

The Site is down at the moment......

It's an interesting time, I was here last November when the shit hit the fan....

I have faith in DPR, but it seems he's facing the most challenging problem to date. Speaking for myself, I hate the idea of a world without SR - but am willing to accept this might be the case. I have always been forward thinking with my drug buying habits, not one for the 11:00 PM Friday night call (I would always organise what I needed in advance).

I think that's the real problem with people losing their shit when SR goes down, it's created a platform where we can get anything we want and we pretty much know the quality of the product will be substantially better than using 'dealers' IRL.

I dunno, it's a case of wait and see I guess, it's a shame we don't live in a more 'free' world.... Being on here for about 7 Months has been a massive privilege. I won't be happy if it ends, but it seems like everything it might..

Just my 2 cents anyways......

Or in this case, not a single other site on .onion huh? Odd how that works out.

Thanks for the update! My last order of H was a "no show" and the vendor went AWOL, he even removed all of his product postings. I'm hoping the resolve option of a refund went through as I'm itching to place another order.

users_dont_lose_drugs I agree with you 100%. I decided to check out Atlantis last night as a back up to SR. It was easy to connect to through the tor browser. It appears that they are still building their product offering, but plenty of stuff.

if it is only "one" guy or a few....this guy will have fun and should hide dark places....

Sry im paranoid...so here my "RUMOR"

If it is a DDoS its from a goverment....
Cause in a market where only 2-3 seller nobody have a reason to "kill" other vendors....

Make sure to check for posts from DPR; he does his best to keep people updated as to the status of SR

I hope they have this worked out soon. I wish I could send support them. Oh well let's just wait.

Just by seeing the dedication of all the long time users of silk road makes me wanna stay away from BMR and Atlantis.

I'll wait, and I don't even worry about the bitcoin I have on SR :)

SR shall prevail!

Nothing today.

As others have pointed out, this is likely the work of faceless State entities, or a well funded criminal group that is trying to hold SR (and DPR) hostage. Assuming the latter, I would be surprised if the instigators haven't requested some sort of payoff to cease the onslaught.

Some group is putting a lot of time and energy in keeping this attack going.

Not since yesterday. It was before I knew of the attacks, should have placed an order while I was in. Ah well.

Post by: goagubben on April 30, 2013, 05:55 pm
I hope SR will be up and running soon! If not, what are the alternatives? Atlantis? What's BMR? Anybody got a link?

But of course everybody should be patient. Hopefully SR will be back soon enough!
