ChosenRO DDoS attacks

Zone · Dec 12, 2009, 06:38 AM

At this time, ChosenRO is intermittently under a Denial of Service attack.
This is pretty funny, but childish. DDoS a pserver? lol
Truly childish.

It has been happening a lot, not only there, but in many pServers.
I wonder what's going on. o.o

People get bored or have no lives and decide to attack servers. Sometimes, someone just pisses them off so they go and attempt to hack the server. Truly is sad...

Like I said, it's childish.
I mean, if you are going to target something, make sure you make some sort of benefit from it.
Monetary gain, or something that can bring that monetary gain closer to you.

I think you can get the IP of the attacker from the map server. At least, that's what I heard o.o

I'm not sure :<

It's all krama, Gorthex probably piss off someone on eAthena or on RMS. Or probably banned a bot that can auto-log, which usually stop at around 4-5 minutes. Happened to me once, I banned four bots and kicked them. Later, all four accounts consecutively log on at once. So I was Q.Qing when I saw the denials. Ohohoho.

So, it's either a child or someone who has the maturity of a child.
Why don't they put their time into something that can make money?
Learn real s***? Build massive botnets and sell them?

I mean, ya figure with the economy, and people willing to buy botnets if they are a certain size.
That means they can pay for whatever porn and soda they want.

This is what is happening;
"You come on my server and advertise I'll Ddos you."

yeah, blackholing would be a solution, but still.
People need to find better ways to waste their time.
Why do it for lulz when you can do it for O_O?
