I also think DP was hacked. If it was just a database error just like what you said, then they should have resolved it by now. A great and excellently restricted forum like Digital Point should not let this thing happening... They should do something, or else,, little by little,, end users might choose other forums...

that is called a DDOS attack its not hacking!!
Massive amount of data will be sent through a particular server the data can be anything.
or it can be a bot either way these things happen

i think that it is not just a simple database error, i checked some of the forums and there are tons of new thread regarding this and some have pretty interesting evidence that DP is being hacked. check this out with some screen shots of DP forums

why is everyone so concerned about DP?? there are loads of other good web master forums which are maintained properly. May be some will loase their portfolio in DP but if you are talented you can create one easily anywhere

i know the value I have an account with 20 Itraders and also lot trustworthy customers there but its time to move on stop lingering to it. Develop a portfolio in another forum and get the contact of your customers. I already collected the contacts of all the customers who I have done business with .You cannot change shawn's mind?? you can only do what can be done
