EU battle.net down

As the subject says, the EU battle.net website is partly down. Forums
and armory definitely are, but I think account management is ok.
Apparently it's because of high volume. Sounds dubious that they
suddenly can't cope. I wonder if there is some sort of cyber attack
going on that they don't want to reveal. Even if not this time, I am
pretty sure large companies which rely on web/net presence are subject
to extortion. I'd be interesting to know what goes on behind the scenes.

no. that "high demand" message is their common thing they put up when
the forum is broken or a big riot has broken out.

they're pretty predictable like that and not nearly as clever as they
think they are.
