I seriously don't get how the ddos can cripple a server in today's advance world of cyber-crime prevention. I'm a total beginner in terms of computer physics but ddos has been around for ages and letting this get away without any action taken is unacceptable. Where are the so called cyber-police that are responsible to take action on such ppl doing these unspeakable acts of cyber-terrorism. I'm pretty sure there is more than 1 way to solve this and I'm definitely not able to give you the answer.

Please get this solved asap in view that it is a service you're selling are you not? cyber-terrorism should be dealt with immediate law enforcement and whatever it takes to put that person behind bars if necessary. Peace.

Aliens....But you didn't hear that from Me...

Hey guys, Banana here.

Yes, this is related to the DDoS attacks issue. We are looking into it and we are trying to find a solution. Bear with us! >_<

While/when the server do go kaboom, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE try to limit your logins. We are NOT blocking regions. This is not how we are attacking the issue. We ARE however going through logs and singling out IPs which are excessively overloading the login servers. The continued checking of login, which may be frequent and over a long time during the downtime -may- get singled out and taken as a DDoS attacker. By limiting your logins, we are then able to help you help us help you all.

If you ARE singled out and you are NOT involved with DDoS, the process gets VERY complicated and a ticket needs to be sent. This is a very time consuming, long winded process and WILL greatly affect the time you are able to play. So once again, PLEASE try to limit your login frequencies during down time.

Also... if you ARE involved with DDoS... let us know so we can take care of you >=(


tl;dr - Try to limit your logins during this time. We don't want to mistake you for a DDoS bot. Also, check for malware just in case.

Thanks guys!

I take it that you're currently limiting incoming connections to 1 per IP? If so, that would explain why my main disconnected earlier (and couldn't relog) while my alt stays

Are you guys also doing some live network protocol analysis, say via tcpdump or ethereal?

Thats where I sit on Ymir, I would have picked that up so fast >)

D: that's too bad isn't it

[Tyrael]

I assume you were dropping it, picking it back up and dropping it again so it didn't disappear right?

[razirazo]

LIES I went by twice >.<

Too late perhaps.
Dont expect me to do it again.

[Tyrael]

back up, yay!

[razirazo]

Ya like 3 times lol.
Just to show how empty the server is right now.

Wrong server

Liar . Got me excited

your server w/o login problems probably has less actual players than other servers with login problems

No im got going to mad.

I second this because you may unwillingly be a zombie and not know it. There are commonly distroed 3rd party programs (both illegal and legal).

Confirmed. There was a post by another moderator that got some heat. We are not ruling out any method for these attacks and we know that this is something our users can do to help.

On a brighter note, Log in seems to be alleviated of its currently pressing issues. Go ahead and log in!

EDIT - The internet is faster wherever you guys are. You guys got the update before i put the update out XD

A magician never tells his secrets =)

[MikeyM3]

Is there a link to check server status so I don't have to check in game and skimming through all these posts ?

[razirazo]

Did you know, other than individual attack DDoS can be 'rented' from botnet operator.
I dont really remember how many bucks they charge for an hour of attack but yeah they might using this.

They must really hate the server to pay for an attack

A magician maintaining servers? Now I'm worried: never know when those will vanish into thin air

Anyways, thanks for the heads up! /no1

no more password+enter+enter+enter when server's down xD

[Novax39]

Relog after you first get back on

Inu did the login server crash again? It still keeps saying "Failed to Connect to Server"

[Squagg]

I still can't connect, just keeps saying failed to connect to server, has been this way for a while... I have Ymir Accounts and Valkyrie... IT just doesn't make sense why it's down more than it's up here lately..

btw this what you can use to check it, as you can see there is just a blank spot on the valkyrie Login spot...
