Is this some kind of DDOS attack? and doesn't the website have some limitations on it?
What i done at the beggining, i posted image with link to reset the password. Maybe someone tried to get image like and just type letter by letter and number by number in to search bar.
Once i realised link is visible i changed password at forum, secured my email with 2 authentication code and deleted image from post.
I dont know.
Im not good in any of these hacking stuff but once you got within 2-3 hours more than 140 attempts to reset your password you asking yourselve questions.
Obviously bitcointalk have no limitation in such thing like login or resetting password.
If that would be DDOS attack its quite weird.
