I blame the PSN hackers

looks like almost all of NA data centers are offline right now? Those hackers who just took down PSN for a day and battle.net not too long ago must have decided we're the 3rd biggest fish in the pond. I feel kinda complimented, and a tad homicidal.

First off we don't know if this is a DDoS attack or something else. let's not jump to conclusion and mass hysteria here. Secondly we just have to wait to hear from SE on this situation.

Well, mass-hysteria would be saying its a hack. DDoS is likely, however, as it was sudden and the servers are still showing as up by SE.

Well they ARE up, I mean I'm currently logged in, even did a ST and logged out and back in while they were supposed to be down. So it's not that the servers are down.

You know that's who it is. It doesn't take lots of brains to figure this one out lol.

I sooooo hate script kiddies. :mad:

I wish ppl wouldn't refer to DDosing Script Kids as hackers. You give them too much credit.

I did say they are technically up (showing as up = up technically), but most people can't get on due to way too much traffic. So they are also down at the same time.

So, its highly likely its a DDoS going on.
