Been offline every time I try to log in for the past day. So it's been a month and a half and nothing can be done to this guy?

That is sadly the strength of DDOS attacks. There's little you can do about it...

Edit 2: As smooth as the hum of a new Ferrari.
Edit 4: As smooth as a salesman's best sales pitch.
Edit 5: No, this one's good. As smooth as a gallon of buttermilk going through a hound dog.

... I'm done.

Might not be a D-DOS attack ATM.

Can someone tell the strength that ddos had? in gpps and gbps? Strong ddos costs good amount of money multiplied by time and I'm just wondering how much that funny guys spent on it?)

...yet where was the President during the server's dire time of need? Was he out at the skatepark with Luna and her CEO cronies, or maybe he was too busying profiting off the server's crash considering his ambassador was head of the I Crash Your Shit CO. No, I think I know precisely where he was.

There's a leak there's a leak in the boiler room!

Go staff go!

thanks shad

Server brick-age at 2:25pm Mountain time.

It had been running so smoothly. Only up long enough to have a 2hour online message

Down again 7:30pm EST 3/21/15

I haven't been able to get on for some time. BUT!; I am happy that the server administration is actively looking into new hosting possibilities. I hope everyone will be patient while the server is being worked on this weekend.

Look here for the new IP address: http://www.nwnlist.com

Also, here: 104.243.42.58:5121

We're actively working this. Our new server host should be smooth! Especially for Europeans, as it's a little bit closer to the Atlantic coast, and it's on a faster, smarter machine.

Our new host also promises more DDoS protection, but we're still fine-tuning that aspect of things.

We've had a few people report to us the possible identities of the individuals behind the attacks, and, if the reports are true, they are "old friends" of the server. Unfortunately, they're not the sort who get bored easily.

Fortunately, they are in countries that have friendly relationships with American law enforcement. If we are forced to walk that road.
