We have been in the midst of a massive DDos attack (hosts words not mine) and its still going on, we have just had someone in our IRC waitingroom saying they are responsible for it. reasons are.
1: having crappy servers with all the donation money
The servers cost me $4,000 each, we have 2, they also cost $700+ per month to keep going, and we only get about 200 donors a month. I wish i could go and spend $20,000 on a new server or 2, but its just not possible.
2: The Game companies asked them to do it
DDos is illegal, so i very much doubt this
3: We have 3 days to close completely, or the game companies are going to start legal proceedings against us.
Will believe it when i see it happening, not from a DDosser.
We are doing everything in our power to get the site stable again, but there isnt a lot we can do (just ask sony and psn) about a massive DDos attack, so you will just have to have a lot of patience while we try to get it stable (which could take awhile, usually you just have to wait a ddos attack out for the most part and hope they get bored).
