What was the problem? Hackers, spammers, DDOS attacks or the like?

I too feared the worst, thinking that the issue regarding the site's ownership after Heycar going under appeared to be leading to HJ being progressively shut down, especially as we'd heard nothing on that score for some time now.

It was an issue with cookies, nothing sinister. I don't know any more than that, I have this info secondhand as we don't have any direct contact with the IT Team.

Regarding the site in general, we don't have any updates but are told to just carry on as normal.

Welcome back. I thought the site might have died but I am glad to be proved wrong.
