To the DDoSers:

[Calteru]

You have greatly underestimated what I'm prepared to tolerate in order to play a really good game. Keep comin'. I've played games where the uptime is measured in minutes.

You want me to blame SE for this. To pressure them to do something. They've already done all they can; I'm not IT-ignorant. You might even do a post or two yourselves trying to fan a little dissent. Won't work.

Have fun with your little temper tantrum.

Yeah it's dumb I hope all the electricity they're using costs them a lot.

Final Day of v1.0 had less uptime and I tried for hours on end to log in just to experience it. This is nothing ^^

[XLauncher]

I don't necessarily blame SE for this, but the game is getting to be legit unplayable regardless. I'd like to meet this with a stiff upper lip, but frankly, I find myself playing or doring other things to avoid the aggravation. If my sub were up anytime soon, I'd probably let it lapse. Not to send a message or anything, but why pay for a product that's causing me frustration?

[SilverObi]

It's more an attack on the ISPs and not xiv specifically, plus I doubt the people responsible even visit this site. It's inconvenient to be sure but there's only so much SE can do from their end sadly

[Khalithar]

It’s pretty damn annoying for sure.

I like this thread. Keep the positivity comin'

Hear, hear! Add another to the “stubborn as an ox” party, I won’t be going anywhere anytime soon.

It's been a fun week.
FF is getting DDoS'd like all the time this week and my internet provider ALSO has been under attack earlier this week resulting in a few hours of no internet for customers across Canada. Da heck is going on?

Not going to deter me though either. I'll just keep logging back in. No biggie.

If I didn’t know better, I would honestly think it was China angry that their RMT-Sellers were getting mass banned. That or perhaps Russia upset about the rate increase. It’s fun sometimes to theorize who could be behind such a waste of time as DDOSing an MMO. Perhaps it is a bunch of kids bored out of their gourd trying to be edgey

Regardless, just gonna keep logging in. Some people blame Canada, I blame RMT-Sellers.
