LOL - I can see why you weren't keen to post this. It's all old stuff relating, in the main, to a Skype bug that was fixed long ago. Plus some rumours about a fraud case with no noted resolution.

Go back and read my first post, i was perfectly cordial and non confrontational and was just gently pointing out that, in fact, there have been denial of service attacks on individual poker players, and there have been a multitude of DDoS attacks of online poker rooms, in the last few months - so players' concerns in this thread are understandable.
Again and again you have ignored my point which was not that these attacks cannot or do not happen. It was that claiming you have suffered from them without credible evidence is fanciful and not going to get you taken seriously by the sites.
It's far better to just give them all the facts available to you without making hysterical diagnoses that you do not have evidence to back up.

that's your prerogative.
I've no desire to attack you, or anyone else.
I just want you to understand the very simple suggestion that it's best not to start making accusations (whether DDOS attacks, rigging, robots or collusion), unless you have appropriate evidence and are qualified to interpret it.
Whay are you finding it so hard to grasp that?

Looking back on the thread I can see that your intention was simply to make clear that the problems the OP thought he might be suffering from do, indeed, exist.
I agree that it is something that can happen and I hope you can agree that it's not sensible for people to just assume that any connection problem is the result of DDOS or DOS attacks.
I apologise for being overly confrontational - too much time spent in the 'rigged' thread.
