While the IB4F site had been growing in popularity its regular 4Chan raids had on several occasions required it to change it's name (changing the site's name changed its URL) to avoid DDoS attacks from slowing all of IB4F and possibly having their site deleted by IB4F's owner, Infinitus. When the site became the home of the Aurorafurries it was called U-18Chan, as a joke about submarines because the site was hiding from 4Chan retaliative attacks. Sometime after the userbase moved across the /fur/ board on AuroraChan was deleted. Over time with growing popularity and a dedicated site on IB4F U-18Chan acquired its own domain which it still uses today. Unfortunately, with many other chans on IB4F dodging DDoS attacks and others hosting such dubious content as to warrant police attention, IB4F went down first on Tuesday 7th July 2009 after Bunkerchan brought the site offline for two days then legal problems took it offline for months.
