My VPS IS up and running fine, still cannot connect to their site.

123systems were being targeted from DDoS attack only a few days ago, there current server status may be a reflection of the damage the DDoS has caused.

Some information / updates from them would be good....

I had a ticket this week about the server being very slow and sometimes the sites didn't even load..

Wow low load...

I emailed because my load was 25+ and it definitely wasn't from me because I just have a test forum with them...I.E. no users.

Yes. They have be going thru ddos attack on random ip's on nodes.
They are hard at work trying to fix this.

I'm back

Just notification would be good...I don't have or use twitter...Normal email to let us know what is happening

Glad it is back, I thought I lost my sites again, already happened there once this year.

I think twitter is the best way for the emergency notifications
while the servers was down they will not be able to send any message via emails

Twitter or System emails imo

123Systems has been around for awhile now. I was with them a few months ago, and although their support response time sometimes was a bit slow (2-3 days max), they would always try to help you when you are having problems with your vps.
