They are slow as hell for me. Anyone else having that issue? Are things still jacked up there? With all the errors that point to a db problem you might think that there were still some underlying issues.

I wonder if some disgruntled noob attacked Turbine for banning his f2p accounts for buying plat instead of points.

Maybe Svetelana is haxoring them like he did to us.

They work fine for me, aside from the sucky front page that they always throw up when things like this happen.

Actually he only slowed the Vault down. I crashed it when I tried to fix it.

Not too hard to DOS.  There are scripts.  Back in the glorious days just 1 computer could mess up an internet (1996-1999) but now you need to usually fish out and daisy chain with a command to nuke a server.

But yeah, you can get the IP of the server, fire up the DOS script, activate all the computers you've somehow gained ping-access with and fire a mighty stream of yellow data at your least-favorite website.

Not sure if that's what this guy did, but it's not very hard to do these days -- yet it's so easy to get caught it's stupid to see how long you can knock out google, yahoo, etc.  That used to be the "fun" thing to do 2000-2004.  I think since then it's become relatively tame and hackers are look'n for money, not bragging rights.

The type of dos attack you've also mentioned is easy to mitigate. Only skids do that shit. The people who really know shit about hacking and/or computers are either doing it professionally or are making money via cpa marketing, so for money just as you said.

The forums are probably slow because Turbine sucks cocks and it was bottlenecked, but tbh the forums have always been slow for me.

Agreed.  I was only discussing the DOS for these forums because Strak paid big money for McAfee to secure the site.
