You might be surprised how quickly teens, even adults, get at being banned, or punished for all sorts of things. Lol. Likely random, but still Sylestia? Really? A fun site for what, over 20k players? :D

Wow...It is strange that an attack would happen on Sylestia...of all places! It is childish, silly and accomplishes nothing of value to anyone.

Thank you Krin, as always, for keeping us informed in great detail.

I wonder if someone has a grudge against Love? ROFL

So... we are currently being DDoS'd.

Fortunately, our server can handle it and I simply have increased our max connections by about 1000%.

We'll see how it goes. Our Host has been notified so they'll look into more permanent solutions and look into stopping the attack.

Fun times!
Sorry but im kinda new to the whole online gaming thing. Could someone pleas explain to me what DDos means?
