Problem to connect ingame/On the forum ?

But this never happened to me before... And I was playing without a single problem like a month ago?

Odd times...

Clearly nothing is remotely strange or different about today, right?

The problem is not on your end, but ours.
As we are under a DDoS attack, your client isn't able to get through the login server. Thus, you spam it in hopes of getting through.

What if that DDOS was caused by the latest GM applicant, to sell you his ways of protecting server?

Paranoia intensifies...

people that do stuff like ddos seem really stupid to me
there are more than a million better things to do with your time than attack a video games forum.
its also stopping new players from getting their activation emails from what ive read on the forums and what my frien who is trying to register is saying too

... ways of protecting server?

....

Carrying this thought forward: Would ADHD (Active Defense Harbinger Distribution [blackhillsinfosec.com & https://github.com/adhdproject]) be of value in situations like these? Cheers

Don't panic guys .

The project is protected and as you can see, never fall down when attacked.
Now, there is no protection to avoid completely DDOS (thousands of connections attemps in the same time), so during this period we may experience some difficulties to connect and nothing else.

Whoever it is. He or she is at it again.
