I have just been talking to Gwar about this on MSN. It might have been a DOS earlier, but for now the site is ACTIVELY refusing connections. That means that the web service has been turned off or in someone blocked.

That is usually symbolic of a DOS because it reduces network traffic load instantly. However, it could also highlight that someone's been utterly stupid at their end and turned off something they shouldn't have done. Either way, it's all bad press for them and shows that they have some work to do to prove to the community that it should work properly.

(As I also pointed out, it can't be a DOS now, because the traffic right is acceptable between my machine and their server, another tool by which you can see if it's DOS... Ping is such a wonderful tool ;-) ).
