SERVER DOWN TIME...Please Read

It seems we have propagated to the new computer and server, thank goodness. This server is much larger and faster and should make [words=http://www.mattersofsize.com/join-now.html]MOS[/words] stable as can be. Sorry for the last week of outage, it really stunk but now things should be smooth sailing.

Thanks Max, that really helped! You are a good shit!
 
I couldn't wait to wake up this morning and log in I missed you so much [words=http://www.mattersofsize.com/join-now.html]MOS[/words] !! Unfortunatly I can only sign on ocassionally until I can purchase my own Pc, I guess I'll borrow the money from a friend I was trying to hold out so I could afford a nicer company. You should all be thankful DLD has this Forum for us here he does is for our benefit and when you see people mistreating or abusing their privilage posting you should stand up for it.

Yup, it has been a rough couple weeks with the down time. I am so happy that we now have the fastest server available with tons of space and shitloads of Ram. Everything is so responsive and fast, worth the extra money. I really hope men appreciate this, it is a big new bill.

Red, we are dealing with an i.p. attack. New CSF Firewall installed last night. Message from server staff:

CSF firewall is installed and we have blocked a bunch of IPs that were flooding your server. It seems to be much better as the amount of flooding IPs have decreased significantly and I can open all sites on your server.

Never Fear, it was out for like an hour I would say a little longer I was here waiting the whole time. I thought it was from tagging possibly.

No, some asshole is sending tons of traffic to our site causing it to overload and block access. We are on it and trying to eliminate it. We will get it.

Usually a crime of that nature is by a competitor, whoever it is is scum.

If necessary we will purchase a new hardware based firewall which will eliminate this.
 
I have a feeling the piece of shit has had membership on these forums and no doubt shadows or lurks here and will read this! I wasn't born yesterday you filthy cunt!!! I have two ideas on possible suspects. Its amazing how sad people can be. These are not hackers, merely simple script kiddies who use hackers toys to perform a flood to a network. Its easy to do actually which is the scary part, no genius has done it.

If your reading this than I hope you have more fuel in the tank because that was pretty pointless what you did. A real hacker would manage root acces and post something across the page but you :) just flood a few. Get a life and a job fuckhead.

Not really but I did find out why things became so fucked up. Only an administrator can see this but it is some slimy shit these spammers are doing. One guy managed to post over 10,000 blogs in hidden mode on the Blog section of the forums. They were hidden via the user so all 10,000 links were sitting on our forum pointing at theirs...fucking bullshit. It took me 12 hours to manually delete each blog. I have set up Blog moderation for any further posts. I am, however, happy I found this issue as now we know where to look. I have also complained to Vbulletin about this hole in their software.

Yeah those spammers are like demons from hell but I am glad we can catch them and ban them unlike people in real life. I was thinking how cool it would be if I could just ban some people from my neighborhood.
