"In computing, a denial-of-service attack (DoS attack) or distributed denial-of-service attack (DDoS attack) is an attempt to make a machine or network resource unavailable to its intended users. Although the means to carry out, motives for, and targets of a DoS attack may vary, it generally consists of efforts to temporarily or indefinitely interrupt or suspend services of a host connected to the Internet." source from Wikipedia ---- Loading...

I am not one to cause trouble, but you were encouraging him by boosting his ego. Saying things like 'He is legit' 'He is cool' This will encourage him more. So yes, I do believe you should be punished. Than I should also be punished for mentioning his name on [global] chat. You should also be punished for encouraging him through following the whole DDoS problem. There's no logic in punishing his friend. Only punish the perp of the crime, not the friend of the perp that had nothing to do with DDoSing AtWar. Loading... Loading...

Garde Posts: 2842 From: Canada	07.08.2013 - 18:41 Garde Are we going to reduce ourselves to punishing friends of anyone who causes trouble? The community was nearing greatness before this happened. Don't let this one incident redden the yellow banners of this site, yet again. Zoro has not committed any wrongdoings, and should not be punished for the idiotic ramblings going on in the latter half of this thread. SaW has been, or will be dealt with in the upcoming days (even though I feel like if someone had just talked to SaW, the DDoS crisis could've been avoided entirely), and he alone is responsible for the DDoS Crisis, not Zoro, not Arminius, not anyone but SaW. Lay the accusations for more punishment to rest. Loading... Loading...

Pheonixking929 Optimates Posts: 1979	+1 08.08.2013 - 00:40 Pheonixking929 No problem. Anyone who has half a brain will understand these attacks and hacks by this hacker, this culprit are not yours, the creators nor anyone elses fault. While we urge you to fix (I believe the issue is solved though?) this issue, anyone who understands this problem should know to be patient during this mess. We thank you for doing your best in stopping this hacker and hopefully you can ban him with an ip ban as stated earlier. Again, thank you, and I hope you are not troubled with this (excuse my langauage) crap at least in the coming months. ---- Everyone is living a myth and it's important to know what yours is.

Lol, zoro was trying to take advantage of the situation and suggested to blackmail Amok so he and saw could become mods. He constantly spammed that chat link on global(which is global abuse also) and then encouraged SaW to keep ddosing. Everyone who went on that chat can confirm this. He deserves to be banned.

RainBow! Posts: 200 From: Canada	+1 17.09.2013 - 04:39 RainBow! It requires a set of botnets, computers in which a malicious sub-program is installed. The users of the botnets do not know their computer is being used for DDoSing. These programs suck the bandwidth of each computer and send packets to the atWar servers together at once, hence the slowdowns and crashes. ---- http://atwar-game.com/user/297261/signature.png Loading...

EskeletorII Posts: 2 From: Spain	28.12.2013 - 21:13 EskeletorII If the server is being ddosed, the solution is easy, i don't know if this is in a VPS or in a hosting, if it is alojated in a VPS you will have to install ISS or SSL (i don't remember the name xd) put any filter like cloudflare, and see the logs of the traffic to ban ip the hacker (but i think to put off the website probably there are more than 1 ip doing ddos i mean a botnet). If it's in a host i recommend you alojate in a vps or dedicated server for more speed an more security, but you can put any filter like cloudflare. Sorry about my bad english xd Loading... Loading...

johns347 Posts: 1	+1 06.01.2014 - 17:34 johns347 Sure the DDoS / DOS attack sounds scary but think, how big the hosts are and how many there are that are doing this. Considering that this game must have a huge amount of RAM and databases to run such a large game, the hosts must be in great number (more than one person/group/organization) and must have an enormous amount of power, several TB each at least. Get the databases to trace the data income that are being sent to the servers. DDoSing is a federal offense and once the data is tracked they can be prosecuted with little to no chance of dropping the charges sense the data was tracked directly back to them there is no real logical way of proving themselves not guilty.
