Somehow I'm not surprised.

edit. Not surprised.
At least Lane doesn't edit other peoples comments, although he rips them apart if he doesn't like it.
 
From the Axanar page...

"Remember, the tip of the spear must be sharp!"

Huh? So we're misquoting "Top Gun" now, are we?:confused::wtf:

Sharp, like all the business strategies they've followed, all the script story points they have offered, all the legal defenses they have made.

Let me fix that for you, Axanar.

Has Axamonitor come under a DDOS attack to use up their bandwidth? Last week or so its been blocked for excessive bandwidth use.
 
It's been the victim of "scraping"; as I understand the practise, it is thousands of downloads of the site for use by foreign companies. Not uncommon, sadly

It could easily be an attack. Hire a share of a botnet to download a list of attachments from the site that use the most bandwidth, or as you say scrape everything. Scraping typically happens by search engines and can be blocked by a robots.txt file in the home directory. What legit businesses really would want to target this site in particular?

Note the operant word there: legit.
 
He threw every other fan-film production company under the bus. Could be one of them getting even???
 
Axamonitor just reports on the bus throwing; it was Axanar that caused the trouble.

Two months in a row Axamonitor has been the victim of bandwidth theft now. However, since Carlos has stated he believes it to just be "scraping" by a non-Axanar third party, I'll go along with that for now.
