    Hooray. hopefully the more this idiot does this the faster they find him and arrest him.
    "He shall be my finest warrior, this generic man who was forced upon me.
    Like a badass I shall make him look, and in the furnace of war I shall forge him.
    he shall be of iron will and steely sinew.
    In great armour I shall clad him and with the mightiest weapons he shall be armed.
    He will be untouched by plague or disease; no sickness shall blight him.
    He shall have such tactics, strategies and machines that no foe will best him in battle.
    He is my answer to cryptic logic, he is the Defender of my Romulan Crew.
    He is Tovan Khev... and he shall know no fear."

    i know, just experienced it on DS9, can't the people who do this get a life? Like what is their problem, do they hate the game, star trek, or are a rival game. Either way I still hope you guys are working on some defense

    It's legitimately bothering me how one disgruntled guy who's mad he can't bot in Neverwinter anymore is bringing down an entire game company's servers just as a temper tantrum. Or is this a different one? Whoever it is this time, I demand a lynch mob. I know a Ferengi who can get us a good deal on gently used pitchforks.

    According to his Twitter, it's the same person as the last attacks. NeverWinterGod. The kid seems to enjoy flaunting his ability to bring down ALL the games at will while rubbing in everyone's faces how no one can stop him. And after a few days of this? Looking like he's right. Seriously though, the Ferengi also sells decent torches and rope as well.

    Rumor has it, Neverwinter had something that botters could exploit in their game to get basically unlimited Astral Diamonds. Which is their version of Dilithium. I'm told by a NW friend that they couldn't seem to stop the exploiting, so they removed the system completely since the botting was destroying the market. And that's why this person is attacking Neverwinter (and all the servers). It's just a rumor. A theory really. But it FEELS like a childish temper tantrum, so maybe? I don't play NW so I dunno.

    Might want to upgrade your server security and routing protocols if you're continually getting nailed by DDOS. I mean, come on. Ain't warp theory here.

    Blah when this started I was still on my retirement from STO but I've sort of returned to the game so now its starting to annoy me. Pretty much the way the world works tho they are going to sentence this kid to his room for punishment where he has his PC, xbox(Or whatever equivalent), and tv or what not heh.

    Be nice if that bracelet from agents of shield were a real device it would make people like this very less likely to risk losing access to any kind of computer lol.

    Lol, the only thing that is warp theory to the STO devs are fixing game breaking bugs. They'll easily figure out that upgrading their security is simple.

    Twitter locked his account... He has a second... he was crying about it earlier... now seems to be crying cause he has no followers...

    Just remember, don't feed him...
  • khaoskrowkhaoskrow Member Posts: 49 Arc User
    You think this sucks? This kid seems to like to throw his little hissy fits when I go do my Rich Dilithium Claim daily. Which is lockbox only item. Meaning 5k Dil up and gone because of SNR. Did a ticket, was told the game is not liable for such things. So that's 5k Dil I'll never see.

    I doubt any of this is going to happen.

    I just think it's likely something we're just gonna have to learn to accept.

    Hopefully occasionally.

    Anyway, I guess I'm done for the day.
