It is time to address the DDOS situation

Best way for Elysium to respond to DDOS  

27 members have voted

  1. 1. What is the best way to solve the DDOS situation?

    • Release information for a counter-attack
      11
    • Take donations to fund protection against DDOS attacks
      7
    • Remain silent while the community crumbles and sit back while the DDOS attacks keep coming
      9

Over the past few months Elysium has acknowledged on several occasions that they were under heavy DDOS. Lately they refuse to even acknowledge it, but it is fairly obvious what a DDOS attack feels like by now.

At no point in time has Elysium made a real effort to tell the community who is behind the attacks. (If they know, some believe and have said it to be Kronos)

At no point in time have they told the community what exactly they are doing to mitigate the DDOS.

At no point in time have they told the community what long term fix they have in mind.

I propose the following:

Communication

Elysium needs to tell the community who is behind it (if they know) and set up a donation place for people to donate towards DDOS protection if that costs money, let's put an end to this.

Retaliation

Surely someone in this community is capable of doing the same to whoever is doing this. Why not release the information necessary for those who love Elysium to retaliate.

One thing is for certain, sitting back and getting DDOS'd into oblivion week after week is getting REALLY old.

Let's fight back, let's find a fix, and let's get some communication.

Lastly, I would add that rerolling to K2 or another Elysium server is not an option. Not only is it conceding to these DDOS attackers, but it would waste a significant amount of time. Don't give these people what they want, it only encourages further DDOS attacks in the future.

The people that dont know how these things work posting walls of text is why freedom of speech is a questionable thing...

Good sir, person A hires person B to use computers C, D, and E to ddos the server... so "releasing information for a counterattack" made me tilted enough to post the previous line...

trying to figure out who is ddosing is like trying to figure out who shit against the wall in a public restroom.

For the last time, Elysium admins talked about in a Q & A (Krogg or w/e his name is responded to this) and said that there was evidence of some kind that Kronos was behind the DDOS. If that is true, there you go.

Also, bad illustration man. DNA Testing and security camera's recording people going into bathrooms would make that quite possible.

How about you listen to what I say instead of trying to just attack me ? Why not work on resolving this rather than just attack me? What the hell is wrong with you guys?

The DDOS isn't an attack on Elysium, it is an attack on the future of Vanilla wow private servers and maybe in general.

Most people including myself likely won't roll on another private server and invest time like this again.

I would take it more seriously than brushing it off with rude and immature forum trolling.
