One would think if DLR got raided, Tyler at TWZ would be next. Arguably, TWZ puts a much bigger spotlight on the base than DLR does with their coverage, fan base, and reader comments.

Is anybody able to access the Dreamland Resort site? It seems to be inaccessible since a few hours, at least for me.
I think it might be related to the november raid and the recent tv appearance of the owner...?

It’s down due to a hosting problem. Unrelated to the legal issues
