Page has not loaded yet and I expect to see a HUGE RED DOT on the home server of the Westboro Baptist Church :P

Came expecting clarity, left with confusion.

From what I can tell:

The USA is engaged in serious intense cyber warfare against the north pole, our Aussie friends are DDOSing the living crap out of the ocean, and China is joining the USA in a joint attack against the north pole.

Am I reading this wrong? Please advise.

What a great idea, let's all go to an IRC channel where the opers can read our IP addresses on connection.

Enjoying the rain today? ;)

Stop mentioning them lest we give them the attention they crave. The attention their parents and their first crush in school never gave.

This sucks, it's been issue after issue the past few days and we haven't realy been told what's going on. I, and everyone here pays for this game in one way or another. It's a service that should be provided at all times except the planned and annouced downtimes.

Just give us an answer on what is realy going on!

And yes I have reached the point that I seriously want some kind of compensation for the loss of gametime.

After all that is what I pay CCP for.



They wont give you details, no reputable IT department would allow giving any details that could high light hardware circumstance of downtime as it would potentially expose vulnerability. So calm down happens in every game for once you can't blame CCP. If you want to be pissed and do something get your net+ ccna msce gsec cissp and ceh and go find lizard squad and call it a day


Funny, ive played EQ2 for 7 years never once had a DDoS attack downtime ... played WoW for 4-5 years and never had a DDoS downtime ... played a whole bunch of other games SWG/STO/SWTOR and more never once had a DDoS downtime .. where do you get your info from eves DDoS attacks in the past week are the first time i even heard of a DDoS attack


I was all prepared to post links proving you wrong on the "never had any ddos attacks" crap. But then read the part where you admit you've only ever learned of them in the past week.

lol, welcome to the internet.

lemme add a bit to the discussion:


Quote:
DDoS mitigation is a set of techniques for resisting distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks on networks attached to the Internet by protecting the target and relay networks.[1] This is done by passing network traffic addressed to the attacked network through high-capacity networks with "traffic scrubbing" filters.[2] DDoS mitigation requires correctly identifying incoming traffic to separate human traffic from human-like bots and hijacked browsers.[3] The process is done by comparing signatures and examining different attributes of the traffic, including IP addresses, cookie variations, http headers, and Javascript footprints.[3]

Manual DDoS mitigation is no longer recommended due to DDoS attackers being able to circumvent DDoS mitigation software that is activated manually.[4] Best practices for DDoS mitigation include having both anti-DDoS technology and anti-DDoS emergency response services.[4] DDoS mitigation is also available through cloud-based providers.[2]


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DDoS_mitigation


so, you can't stop it. you can only mitigate it, since you will need up to serious hardware (or, up to military level), depending on how hard it is, how fast, and how long it lasts.



they have the military grade hardware. :)




"had" is the more correct wordBlink

If only you knew how "great" the army computers were. I agree it must be "military grade" lol


I see what you did tharPirate

It helps to use this thing called a "router" which probably comes equipped with a "firewall" that makes the concept of launching a organized DDOS or other attack against a single internet user behind NAT a bit, well, batpoop silly to even say out loud :P

i understand this is Eve and the Tear Buckets are overflowing but if you have the gumption to do something stupid like this then go after corrupt world goverments not someones form of entertainment.. going after a video game is like a fat kid holding a jelly donut being told hes fat it's just to easy and a little pathetic

As I slipped my finger slowly inside her hole, I could immediately feel it getting wetter and wetter.

I took my finger back out and within seconds she was going down on me.

"I really need a new boat," I thought to myself.

Confirming that random DDoS attacks against ISP's that host gaming networks are just like overweight people and jelly donuts.

Really, why do so many of you EVE players have such a hard time with basic metaphors? You can even get all cliche about it and still win harder, let me help you:

DDosing a gaming network when one could be DDosing a corrupt government is like taking candy from a baby.

There, I helped you.
