    Yes, shawn is the owner. What happened was that there was DDOS attacks from turkish/muslim people because of threads started in the religion / politic subforums that were against them.

    Read what DDOS is here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Denial-of-service_attack

    It is not involved in Politics at all. It has one Politics & Religion sub-forum where members can discuss matters pertaining to those categories. It's the members who are getting involved.
