He appears to be timing his attacks to coincide with DragonFlight. Twice today we've had to stop organization.

Or Demogorgon.

I started having issues awhile ago with serious lag. About 5 minutes hit with a series of server not responding messages and then disconnected.

I'm wondering if instead of spending money on Zen I should start assembling a reward fund for his arrest.

So tell you wouldn't hire security for your company.

Wew some not so nice people are always on those forums lol...If you want to quit the game can you just do it without pulling off the drama queen stuff ?

reiwulf

why does every single ****ing time I try to get back into the game and start having fun, something like this happen? -_-

wylonus

dont send these FBI cyber guys, we dont need them they are doing by the law of the book, we just need to send secret mafia/yakuza/triad locate him and cut the fingers and force him to pee in his own pants.

anyone else having severe server problems atm? I was getting really bad unresponsiveness rubber banding the awaiting server response thing, so I logged out then got back to the main screen but play was greyed out. I tried to go to arc and it said arc couldn't connect to the server. it's letting me get to my character screen page again but I can't seem to get farther than that. I guess I'm going to do some chores instead of the preferred avoidance tactic of gaming. LOL. DARN YOU GAME!!! ( or hackers?) those poor dust bunnies deserve to live too yah know!

Seriously, he's probably trolling the forums now, getting off on all the over-reactions. Stop feeding the troll.

Been happening all this weekend and even now.

Well this DB has messed the game up fierce... FL and Guild Roster are empty, chat is offline, cannot interact with NPCs... can't we just have some nice, masked men in black combat fatigues pay him a visit he'll never forget?

wylonus

rincon, that clown, was it Damon Wayans?

I wish they would take down that damn Server light. The thing is always green even when the server is down. It is like having a engine light that never comes on but you can clearly hear the engine making all the noise just before it explodes

I was rubberbanding pretty hard when loggin in earlier today.

roughbearmattach

This also took down STO and Champs.

He's been doing this for a YEAR. Cryptic, how is that you have not located him by now?

DDOS

wylonus

iandarksword

It seems the DDOS returned! Put more hamsters in the wheel and mount the battle hamsters! Into the war!

Just an FYI... that's a guinea pig, not a hamster.

Yes I know @karakla1 , but they usually get resolved very quickly, and don't reoccur for along time. It was more intended that PC is easier to attack than consoles by yourself.

Attacks like this are non-consequential compared to the attacks on PSN/Xbox Live servers : |

That is kinda HAMSTER. Consoles have like three great networks and i think all of them got hacked. While on PC you have different games and networks. Of course no one is perfect but it makes in fact very hard to "hack every pc game" because there are a lot with different ones in different networks or doesn't even have a network at all.

Twitter has pretty clear policies on Harassment, Furtherance of Illegal Activities and creating additional handles to circumvent bans.

Take away his Twitter and it takes away 90% of the fun for him.
