Board and Site attacks

[Livingsteel]

It seems that some malicious prick is attacking all our sites with DDOS attacks. This has left our sites offline. It is sad that in today's times competitors will resort to this type of activity to bolster their business as this is the only way they can compete against us.

We have endured DDOS attacks in the past but this time it was stronger and we are taking steps to rectify this.
We will probably be down for another 24 hours at least and we ask our customers to please be patient at this time.

We apologize for the inconvenience caused by those that should more time supplying quality steroids and less time conjuring up new and improved DDOS attacks.
<SCRIPT language=Javascript> top.updatecursor();function ToggleBar() {if(parent.MenuBar.document.readyState == "complete") {if(top.FramePage.MenuBar.ButtonStatus["opendraft"] != "Off") {top.FramePage.MenuBar.ButtonToggle("opendraft", "Off");top.FramePage.MenuBar.ButtonToggle("reply", "On");top.FramePage.MenuBar.ButtonToggle("replyall", "On");top.FramePage.MenuBar.ButtonToggle("forward", "On");}} else { setTimeout("ToggleBar()",400)}}</SCRIPT>

It's usually a competitor because it's an easy way to keep a server plugged up.

You can tell a dos attack when you have an extraordinary amount of "PC's" accessing your site so that it cant handle the bandwidth and therefore giving customers "error" or some type of "busy" message.

a few assholes play dirty. It's fun when you can find them and return the favor.

 

[Presser]

you guys run on a dedicated server with enough space?

 

[MrPerfect]

oooo ok , slow bandwith means servers crashing, got it

I'm guessing on who it is that is responsible for it, same asshole as before and yes, he plays very dirty. Some people never learn!
