"For example Andrew "Weev" Auernheimer was sentenced to 41 months in prison for exposing a security hole on AT&T's servers that publicly revealed iPad users' email addresses. The court ruled that the "loss" to AT&T in his case was $73,000"
Lolwot? "Hey guys don't use this companies internet because at the moment all Ipad users emails are publicly shown" = 41 months in prison. Did I just read that right or did he "show" them their error by hacking/etc. them?
Actually, yes
Sounds like a less-crazy version of Live Free or Die Hard.

Just sitting around and sorting through some coins and thought we could use a backup site in case this place gets attacked again. I know there's one on Bnet but the blinding effects of the site and crap layout makes it a drag to go on.
I do have experience with a forum service similar to proboards but it's called Forumotion and I can make a simple site with one or two forums so it can be a simple bunker if shit happens. Only thing is that it would have to be more discreet and that means no links out in the public, only way is through PM to users you know for certain won't turn around and give it to Rose or Comms.
I think there might be one of those already. I can give you the link if you'd like.

I won't be posting the logs publicly, but if anyone would like to take a look at them they are welcome to them. PM me.

Does their ISP not have records of the traffic coming from that individual? Even if they do not have programs in place to stop it and nobody is at work at the time, surely they would have records of it once they got back to work the next day or something. I thought that shit was illegal as well.
It's far more complicated than that. People download programs, like Tor, and utilize other functions such as multiple proxies and IP addresses. It's why finding people who commit DoS attacks makes it nearly impossible. It's kinda like a criminal moving around constantly to different safehouses and using lots of false identities to hide
Okay, but as Comms is our No1 suspect right now, if Cheat gets the list can't we just see if his IP matches any of them?
I can compare the list of IPs (assuming I get them) to any that have logged in here, but that's all I can really do to see if it was him.

It's probably only for a few more hours. The host was only applied early this morning.

I'll request a list from the old host. Maybe they'll give it to me.

They kicked up because we were hit by a DDoS attack that wasn't even our fault?
I know. The host's name was Fatcow if you want to show them your appreciation.

*sigh*
Everything's okay now.
I basically got like three hours of sleep because I had to fix everything and get the database uploaded. This DDoS shit is a nightmare.
who did it?
I'll post what I know in the thread in Updates. Wait for it.

In case you didn't know, yesterday night the forum was hit by a major DDoS attack that crashed the server and took the host's website offline for an hour. They've basically told me they cannot tell who was behind the attack because it involved many different IP addresses and the combined requests were several gigabytes worth. They kicked the site off of their server and we now have a new one. But since we have a new server, some stuff might still fuck up. Namely, remember that error that would pop up in the beginning (max_questions)? That is now once again possible, so I'm trying to work with this host in order to fix it before it happens. We can also get hit by this attack again, if the jerk is so inclined. I will be looking into things I can do to guard against it, but it's very difficult to stop an attack of the magnitude we experienced. More on this stuff as I know more. EDIT: your avatar is now broken if you uploaded one. You need to re-upload it. What we know: Your site is under a major DDoS attack. We have null routed the domain to stop the traffic effecting our servers. We will have to ask you to find alternate hosting for your domain as our platform can no longer support you. The traffic was coming from a multitude of sources, it's most likely that some form of botnet was responsible. At it's peak we were receiving ~10gb of inbound traffic to the domain. Unfortunately in extreme cases like this we do have to advise that a site cannot be hosted on our shared platform in order to ensure services remain reliable for other users. UPDATE: Some strange shit is afoot. As most of you probably know, Crouton and I have been working on figuring out who was able to DDoS the site and knock us right out of our host. Well... It gets kind of sketchy. I requested the UDP Traffic logs from Fatcow to see what the fuck was going on, and was transferred to several people before they basically said they didn't keep track of them. Read below (unedited):
Hello,
Thank you for contacting support.

Technical Specialist If that's not strange enough, I did a little searching for reviews on the hosting service and came across this: We are a Internet Radio station that was running on a dedicated server at another hosting company. We moved to FATCOW to save money thinking we would get the same or better service. After only 2 days on their servers, they shut off our account and website without ANY warning. They claimed we caused a DDOS attack and thus they suspended our account. They would not allow us to talk with Tier 3 support or explain what happened.
They simply told us to go away. We moved our site to a better know hosting/registrar.
I am a Cisco Engineer with over 25 years in this business. I have never been treated in this manner.
STAY AWAY FROM FATCOW!!! It's pretty much word for word what happened to us, save for the dedicated server. So... I'm not so sure what happened anymore. It's true that when we switched hosts, someone was trying to bring the site down (and mostly failing, since it only slowed everything down), but it definitely wasn't of the same caliber as the first attack. Very fucking strange.

I don't think it's right but I also don't think my opinion should have an affect on someone who doesn't believe in what I believe in. It's disgusting when it's flaunted though. Straight or gay.
Why don't you think it's right?
As a species, we are not meant to go with the same sex. It just doesn't work. You can't reproduce. It's a bliff.
I suppose if you look at it purely as a procreation exercise, you'd be right. But...I've seen my one female dog humping my other female dog, so obviously homosexual behavior happens in nature.

Sorry, but I hate ads. I hope you don't make using adblock a bannable offense, like those assholes in the Flood are suggesting.
You won't be banned for it. It was just a request.

Rose.
Who is still here
He sent me a PM saying IP bans don't work.
No shit, he spends every day making a new IP instead of living an actual life.
I suck at computer stuff, but can't IP changes be tracked?
They can be, yes, but he is changing IPs every time he gets banned. I am working on a way to make it very inconvenient for him to keep doing it.

So if the site is down and you guys feel the need to complain about it, learn what the problem is, or just be able to posts stuff and talk to each other in general do it here from now on. I'm tired of seeing all the hate produced by members of OffTopic when we post. We're not trying to create a bad reputation for this site after all.

A redesign of my local community college
4 Minigames
EDIT: navigation is broken on the minigame one, so...
And also, for a few lols go to the college website, go to the contact page, and enter hydra into the math field. No caps; all lowercase.
I did the last 20 for free.
I modeled the button after this video, which has a limit of $2 million since the money halves each time you press it. And that Polymer app is awesome! Did you do both the design and the code, or just the design?

Advertise it as the place to get eternal, from Halo Reach. Then, play Never Gonna Give You Up when they click the big button.
That's pretty good.

I thought it might be helpful for those of you who are waiting for improvements to see what I am immediately working on to improve the site. So, below are the few items I am either working on, or are going to work on very soon. Not everything that needs to be fixed is on here; these are just the immediate items. - Global Topic Mod
- Edit board layout to simplify
- Fix Disembodied Soul's PMs
Here are a few things I plan to work on in the future: - Take over DeeJ's job at Bungie

I regularly peruse new TLDs and interesting website domains that are for sale, and a few months ago I came across one that I thought was awesome enough to buy it right away: http://burn.blueFor real, if you type in burn.blue into your address bar you'll get the site. Anyway, I came up with a logo and a general color scheme (blue and white) but I have absolutely no idea what to do with it. I need your opinions and ideas; what should I turn this thing into?

lol. All the work this guy puts in just to mildly inconvenience people..
He just made a new account and PM'd me gloating about how he is immune to IP bans. I wasn't even the one who banned him, but he seems pretty damn proud of himself.
