DDoS Attacks

Dear community,

 

For the last 3-4 days(24 hours a day for those 3-4 days) we have been a target of DDoS attacks. We are working on a solution to stop these, but right now it is a work in progress. Should be solved soon, but you will have some lag on the website in the mean time. If you can't get the bot open, keep trying. It took me 2-3 minutes to finally get it opened and have been running flawlessly every since. If you have any questions or just want to chat with the rest of the community feel free to come in the chat box. We are friendly, I promise!

 

 

Thanks,

@Maldesto

Any knowledge of who may be doing it, or why?

No not at all, we won't accuse other sites of doing it without proof, like they do. We aren't sure it is competition or if it is just a set of people targeting us for fun. If it is a group of ddosers, they aren't very good as we are still online most of the time and they are just lagging us.

And you can't see where the traffic is coming from?

A decent DoS attack usually come from all directions. The idea is to gain access to many vulnerable computers (through some kind of virus or worm), then using the network those devices are connected to send an overwhelming amount of requests to the server (usually by finding a part of the site with no flood control, such as previewing your post)
