Can you pay a DDoS service to DDoS another DDoS service?Eclypticon wrote:In all likelihood, the responsible party is not doing the DDoS attack themselves. They have likely purchased a DDoS service. See Maecius's post above
Chances are no one will ever know or find out who is behind this unless they tell someone or slip up.

Endelyon maybe found a service that will help us out. But we're doing some fine tuning. If it actually works once calibrated, we might invest in the cost of the service.

Building or harvesting a 'bot network' is illegal in many countries, and penalties are no joke. I would not recommend anyone go poking about the darkweb to find such services. As often, the sites that have information on them will attempt to turn you into a bot themselves, or install other malware.

Isn't the attack coming from someone from Realms of Trinity Server or Sigil Server? Trying to make players go to their servers

Just curious, is this happening at the provider level or the server level?Maecius wrote:Endelyon maybe found a service that will help us out. But we're doing some fine tuning. If it actually works once calibrated, we might invest in the cost of the service.
