aquarius Posted April 3, 2014 Report Posted April 3, 2014 It seems Continuum is under attack. Almost every zone is offline. There's a few of us hanging out in T3 The Gauntlet (SSC), but even SSC database server is under attack so there's no player database connectivity. I just want to inform anyone who's interested to go ahead and enter T3 The Gauntlet to meet up with those who are interested in getting to the bottom of this. If anyone knows anything, please speak up.
The Junky Posted April 3, 2014 Report Posted April 3, 2014 Looks like it could be an attack, cant really get to server to even find out. but I emailed priitk last night, so hopefully we will find out soon.
aquarius Posted April 3, 2014 Author Report Posted April 3, 2014 The TWDev Zone was green 30 mins ago (and has 100% uptime until now) .. and now it's red. Checked the server and there's no sign of attack .. it looks healthy .. yet it's red. Are they somehow exploiting a bug to make zones go red without a dos attack? Weird...
Mom Posted April 3, 2014 Report Posted April 3, 2014 I just emailed Priit as well to kick the servers back into gear.
JoWie Posted April 3, 2014 Report Posted April 3, 2014 I am indeed seeing a big increase in traffic on my SSC server
»Axe Demento Posted April 3, 2014 Report Posted April 3, 2014 for the record this is not me I only crashed my own servers when i unleased my self replicating bot army! I think 1700 bots crushed me pretty fast. I've got 20 computers set up now. Could they be also attack the directory server as i was seeing some of my zones get through on the ssdir.playsubspace.com directory biller. I was also playing around with some of the directory servers just for such an event. Hope everyones files are safe! i'm in the SSDZ feel free to join me if you can find the infoif not just add a custom 76.70.72.186 port 1999 and you should find me fine if the other directory servers continue to stay down. tho as of 12:12est at least some of the directory servers are sending info. ...Axe
JoWie Posted April 3, 2014 Report Posted April 3, 2014 My hosting provider confirmed it is a (low layer) denial of service attack targeted directly against the server. It even affected other machines they are hosting.
Davie Posted April 3, 2014 Report Posted April 3, 2014 Bet they are well chuffed with SS for that lol
hallucination Posted April 3, 2014 Report Posted April 3, 2014 Thx Mom for contacting Priit and Jowie for confirming the dos. Hopefully this will be resolved soon. --hallu

Mom Posted April 3, 2014 Report Posted April 3, 2014 (edited) Priit usually responds fairly quickly when the servers are down. Just need to be patient until this gets sorted. Until then, please remove all sharp objects from your vicininty. Edited April 3, 2014 by Mom

Hakaku Posted April 3, 2014 Report Posted April 3, 2014 Whoever it is seems to be actively at it. The minute PowerBall and Devastation picked up players, the server went down.
Bajan Posted April 3, 2014 Report Posted April 3, 2014 SSCX Powerball / Devastation server has just been attacked/downed also. 108.61.44.148Someone is on a serious mission here, very curious to find out who.
