Stop these DDOS already!

Every few months it happens and usually at the most inconvient of times. If it was during the day, when most people are at work/school, it wouldn’t be so bad. However they seem to hit the game in the evening hours when they know people will be online. It also seems to be the same group of kids who brag about it on twitter (or at least taking credit for it). So why hasn’t this been dealt with already? I don’t recall other gaming companies having such a terrible problem…well except for that one time when Sony got hacked.

Like a couple people mentioned, these groups often don’t target one game, they target many. Anyway, let’s not give them more of the attention that they desperately crave.

I just want to note: when these malicious incidents happen, please know that we have our NOC investigating almost immediately after they occur.
