    Wasn't it during peak play hours on a weekend, spanning several days, last time?

    Also, wasn't it before the migration to these awful forums? I can't remember, it seems like forever ago. A lot of people just stopped using the forums entirely after the change, and then again when the style got weird recently.

    While it hasn't happened in a while, the expected reason and response to server issues has been "is this another DDoS attack?" Every time there is a burb, people think it's happening, so naturally when the server actually goes down, they just go "must be happening again."

    Seriously? Sad, Cryptic. Just...sad.

    Bahahaha, you don't really believe such scumbags do you? Kids will be kids.
    Reminds me of another true story. Someone on EQ was having a grand old time scamming and griefing other players, and bragging about it.

    Until someone found out who he was. That someone got his IP address, hacked into his webcam, posted pics, his home address, his telephone number, his ADD meds, the works on a forum. 24 pages later, the (you guessed it) 14-year-old dweeb was having his phone ringing all hours of the night from all around the world from angry players. Eventually his family had to have their phone disconnected.

    This is the problem with kids nowadays. Young, dumb and full of c**, yet they don't have no chick. So they must get off on DDoS. Can you imagine what these people look like and the lives they live!? Bahahahahahaha. The image is priceless.

    P.s. No one stops DDoS attacks. If they want to do it bad enough, they will. Having been a gamer for so many years I understand this. No hard feelings at all PWE. Not much you can do about it.

    Edit and like someone else pointed out. So many accounts got banned recently. A DDoS revenge attack was expected.

    guess this time DDOS attack by the AD seller is sending a message to cryptic and perfect world that they are untouchable and not to be mess with and incur their wrath.

    I wonder how much of the goldseller spam would stop if all east-Asia countries were moved to their own game server.

    Maybe Cryptic should make their Zen/AD ratio competitive, within $3, of the websites and the money would pour in for Crpytic & no one would buy from ad farm sites and then time/money could be saved having to ban/suspend and it would save us time from being DDosed. More zen sold at a higher ad rate > less zen sold at a lower ad rate. It's not a coincidence Cryptic is being DDosed after an intensive string of suspensions/bans.

    Yeah, there's still some issues going on affecting both platforms, just the XBOX more-so than the PC.

    For the XBOX specifically:
    "Our team has identified the issue that is preventing some NW Xbox players from connecting. We're working on a fix now."

    Most PC players should find the servers up. Some appear to be affected by this issue at present (myself included). Please post there instead if you find your tracert shows the issue there. I don't have any further details at present but I do hear that we should get an update on the lingering issues soon. If you cannot connect, please be sure to specify what platform you're on when replying there or here.

    have already try giving them that suggestion bro when it comes to preventing AD seller selling their AD for side income as i know where they r coming from about affecting their company revenue if the gamers decide to buy AD from the AD seller and not from the company. hopefully they will accept my suggestion as i'm sure other gamers also have the same mentality and if they did accept my suggestion that i send them on PM, it will be a win-win situation for everybody especially for the loyal gamers of PWE and cryptic that have been supporting this game.

    hey speaking about OP, once my OP reach 70, i would want to test my build against urs in ice windale if that's ok with u. oh, my GS is going to b in the 2K so if u can lower ur GS will b great

    want to extend my thanks to you and the tech support for staying on top of this but fixing this ddos is just a short term solution as u should know by now the reason behind the DDOS attack, cryptic and PWE should find a solution before the loyal supporter of this game decided to quit and PWE need to terminate this game from their "beta" testing phase due to the lack of players as this is 1 of the better F2P game available online.
