Well I think we just got hit offline.

[Gravified]

Yeah, you're not the only one. I did dced too

[HappyguyForum]

yep... i don't know whats up with these guys... seriously

[Karl]

This is beginning to be a regular occurrence.

the staff don't need a anit-ddos ... they need to TAKE CARE OF THE SOURCE. And by source i mean the people hitting us over and over and over. The staff are smart enough to do just that.

[DesertRain]

Yeah.  Something needs to be done to block this sort of thing from happening.  There are always gong to be bad little script kiddies, so it makes me wonder what the big sites do to stop this.

If you're implying to ddos them back, that's not allowed because ddosing is ileagle to begin with. If they ddosed back that would be committing a crime and it wouldn't really be solving the problem.

You have to have a device sitting outside of the of the server to prevent these attacks from happening. I would be interested on how they have there server setup and on what platform. Also how they have their network setup as well.

This seems to happen a lot, Unfortunately.

We all just have to wait it out.

[AS]

Hate jelous fucks :/

[ZzReVeNg3zZ]

Thats absouloutely ridiculous, we are only trying to have fun, why do these absolute C*n*s ruin it for us... we got to do something about this.

[DesertRain]

So a simple reboot from one of the owners won't work?  When they log in to see what's happening anyway.  Or is the hosting site going to end their contract, which doesn't make sense to me.  Your house gets robbed, so the cops put you in jail...

I really hope they have blocked all unused ports. That is a pretty common way of DDoS. Also TCP flood as well.

Another thing they should check into is rate limit per IP source and this rate limit should include SYN FIN ACK and RST per second per source IP. They will also need to limit the concurrent connections per source IP. Another thing these DDoS attackers may be doing is sending login command at the same time.

Scripted attacks have many anomalies in their headers. This should be looked at as well.

In the logs, please be looking for similarities in the attacks. Most attackers will change parameters but they usually dont get all of the parameters and alot of these parameters remain the same across the board.

Another of the easiest solutions is start blocking IPs at the router/firewall level. Start  getting a good list together and eventually this will stop.

Worst comes to worst and they really want to stop these attacks, they can hire a specialist whose soul purpose is DDoS mitigation.

no, i am implying that we need to either confront them about it, or take legal action.

Cheat clients can flood the server aswell
