actually it's not easy for M-R to come up and/or blame to someone without any solid proof.

Indeed. It might be that Eldar is waiting for everything to get back to normal before he makes a statement about the issue.

It certainly would be nice to know about the whole issue, including why the forum has been down for so long.

At some point in the near future i expect the Russian HQ to make an official announcement regarding that, AFAIK it's very difficult to pinpoint an individual source of these things in order to state and identify the exact culpability.

this way, the forum will loose a lot of members, they're automatically banning our IPs just for a single wrong password entry!

I have alerted Playdead and infinity-GX who are aware of, and are attending to the problem.

perhaps this will help: I changed my IP address* using some program and I got the same problem, this MUST be a database issue.

I think it would be very wise to add a notice in the forum to let other members know untill this problem is sorted out.
