Over my two years here I have witnessed the occasional short term outage and attributed it to DDOS. That being said it takes a lot of resources to sustain a DDOS attack over many days.

Hackers plant a program into many other computers, and on a signal, all of them send requests to one IP. All of a sudden a server gets hundreds of thousands incoming requests. It overloads the server.

Uh, well I uh, you know, I uh, was just trying to uh, straighten up a bit and sometimes I get carried away and forget about the warnings…so sorry for any irreversible shock or injury which may or may not have been sustained as a result of my seed-induced obsessive compulsive “tidying up”…

Thank you. I sometimes think I am the most ignorant person I have ever known.

About acronyms, I mean.

Get in line. I don’t understand what anyone below 30 is talking about. It’s worse when they are under 20. :joy::joy:
