You missed the early morning drama apparently. Some schmuck said they were going to DDOS us. Hm, possibly a beardhurt redditor. Mturk**** seems to only be beefing with RWStein. TN gets mad, but I don't think they'd actually do a DDOS. Could just be a random *******.
In computing, a denial-of-service attack (DoS attack) or distributed denial-of-service attack (DDoS attack) is an attempt to make a machine or network resource unavailable to its intended users. Although the means to carry out, motives for, and targets of a DoS attack may vary, it generally consists of the efforts of one or more people to temporarily or indefinitely interrupt or suspend services of a host connected to the Internet. Pulled from ****pedia Edit: Whoever doing it is probably some schmuck pretending to be a hacker, who is just sending 100000's of requests to the forum at once, essentially flooding the server.
I noticed it, but I didn't think it was anything serious. They need to get the **** over it, and let us go about our business.
He'll probably just reroute his IP again, seems we've been dealing with this all day, so he must be mapping it. >.< Also if he's smart he's daisy-chaining so tracing won't do any good, but I doubt it. I somehow envision this douche sitting in his moms basement in his boxers at 35 years old, after flunking out of High school.
Blech. Does anyone else have problms sometimes getting requestor overview info, or pending HITS, etc.. info with HITS database...? I ask for this and nothing shows up, no pending HITS though there are 160 of them. Yes I manually update it every day.. This database is weird, sometimes it shows me not having done work for a requestor like Crowdsource, then I'll try refreshing the page like 10 times and then the info will show up. I'm sort of wishing there was a backup method to keep track of all of this data...? I don't have a lot of faith in this deallio right now. Does anyone have any idea why this happens and is there anything I can do about it...? Mucho thanks to all of you for helping me out- I'll be crossing that 1000 mark anytime these pending HITS go through yay!
