We are trying to figure that out lemmings, so far we're not too succesful though. All I can say is stay tuned for more information on that question.

and I quote the original statement
some esoc staff member wrote:Hello peeps,

as you may have noticed, the ESOC website has been under a denial-of-service attack for the past day, resulting in a lot of downtime on the services we normally offer. Our team has fought a tough battle with the attackers to bring ESOC back online and keep it that way (thanks Buckethead for helping out!). Unfortunately, I cannot yet say we are safe, but know that we are doing all we can to stay afloat and add protective measures against these types of attacks.

Please stay patient and be careful to not lose any important unsaved posts as we work through this issue, since there may be periods of downtime again.

Thank you for understanding.


Idk about you but reading that does not necessarily incite any feelings of tension, stress and violence that were not already present in me to begin with, such that I might use this post specifically to convince myself, a sort of (in)valid excuse, to express those views anyways rather than taking the post for what it is at face value: a simple explanation of esoc's recent and noticeable down time. Basically it's everyone elses' fault.

You're making it an easier decision day by day, I feel.

Instead, try having no real, substantial opinions about anything like myself, or rather, never truly express them, and live in ever-safety, never explicitly diverging from the masses and never thinking critically for yourself.

I get along with everyone, and conversely, I do not get along with anyone.

Can't say it hasn't worked so far!

The website connection is kinda lame today, sometimes its irresponsive. I assume updates are happening or something.

Actually, you did. I didn't.
wtf is wrong with you?
As is evident (although not from our exchange; what I'm saying is technically completely correct), quite some things.
