DDOS
Dedicated Denial of Service
by writing a fairly simple programme, you can make a computer (or network of computers) all keep going to the same website (in this case awf) the hundreds of automated attempts to open the website slow down, and eventually crash the website.

Is that done intentionally to make a site crash if so why?

it is done intentionally, often out of malice. Maybe someone is jealous of the forum!
You often see it happen against big sites like microsoft or google

I though of an easier way to describe it:
you have a phone number
if someone rings you, everyone else gets an engaged tone.
someone wants to interrupt your business, and they ring your number, and get all their friends to ring at the same time.... the result is any genuine customers cant get through due to the volume of hoax calls

What happened to lovely Lolo was a cowardly act and really bloody childish as well

Some twat continually annoyed her and made lots of annoying phonecalls. I really hope it was nothing to do with a person from Kent. I have seen a few ladies that have toured Kent and have not heard it happen before so it was probably someone who was jealous of Lolo
Thats my opinion
