dont expect anything valuable. he spends his time shitposting anything and everything in the forums of a video game he quit over a year ago to drown out those who want the game to improve. other people who quit CO but not the forums usually stay for the community but this guy legitimately has no friends and stays on the on-topic CO related threads talking trash to anyone who mentions CO lol.

computer scientists know nothing as demonstrated at least once a week by deathclaw. in typical computer scientist pop-quiz ego fashion, hes going to wait until you elaborate something and school you on an unrelated technical definition considering you actually arent wrong. just laugh at him and watch him get frustrated as nobody takes his bait

More likely than packet spam is your ISP having stability issues.

Actually you are a moron. Since when is "packet spamming" not a DDoS?

changing router settings did work, that week was the first week in 3 weeks i managed to play any event at all (in fact i got to play elite pk and team pk without logging out of skype) but unfortunately i won, they regrouped and decided ddosing the entire server is more reliable for the following weeks. i feel bad for the allies who are also being affected though since its not really their problem, so i didnt bother logging in last week. i dont mind getting ddosed all that much, id prefer they target me than ruin it for everyone else

Oh yea your almighty router.

Thats cute, guess why you can write this bs? That's right solely because us ignorant computer scientists invented it

A DDoS requires 1000's of PCs, usually infected with some form of malware that doesn't really harm the PC but sends requests to the victim. That is why it is rare to see DDoS in most cases since it takes a lot of prep/luck or a lot of users willingly helping you.

Typically, a DDoS does some form of pinging/connection establishment 100's of times per computer per minute in a several 1000 network of "bot" computers. This adds up to too many requests for a server to handle. The REASON this is not what happened to a single person's computer is that there's no way to get a connection etc to someone's computer unless they freaking host a server themselves. It is also a waste of a bot network to use on a single person's computer even IF they knew an open port, the effort/legality/ineffectiveness is just way too unrealistic for a DDoS to be used on a person's PC.

Packet spamming, requires 1 PC, with a program that acts like an infinite for loop spamming a targetted IP with pings/packets/what-have-you. That is enough to lag someone and possible DC them. It is useless against a server that can handle serious bandwidth.

Keyword is -distributed-

DDoS is untraceable and multiple IPs. Packetspam goes right to the source. So you can find who did it.

You sir, are the idiot.

Hahaha. Wow you are actually a braindead moron. As a matter of fact a DDoS is just packet spamming. Multiple sources or not is completly irrelevant.

a ddos must come from multiple sources
packet spam is defined by the fact it comes from a single source
there are types of ddos that dont involve packet spamming

its hard to be wrong three times in a single sentence but god damn are we glad to have you back in all your former glory

p.s. kill yourself

HAHAHHA. So, how do we know who is right or wrong? I'm really curious who is the right person. Everyone just calling each other out with no source or actual evidence. Signature with computer scientist don't mean ****. Constructing well developed statements/paragraphs doesn't mean your right also. Posting retarded pictures is funny though hahaha.. This forum is turning into my, "visit for funny moments" section.

Please continue..

A DDoS is distributed from multiple IPs and sources.

Packetspam would be a "DoS" but no one uses that term, people just call it packet spam.

Haha. Oh you gotta love all those contradictions in one post. What about the DDoS that don't don't (yes a double negative) involve packet spamming? Do they involve black magic then?

As for the idiots like Mr.Xen: I would really like to know how you DDoS someone if not by spamming packets. As a matter of fact a traditional DDoS attack is the syn flood. It is a special packet of the tcp layer and therefore this attack is simply just "packet spamming".

The actual difference between an attack from a single vs from multiple source is really just the quantity of the attackers.

Uneducated idiots.

[RockSolid]

Ok, Xen won this battle. Evidence provided from legitimate professionals. As both him and the site mentioned the difference in DoS and DDoS attacks. Backing up with evidence from proven professionals. Only retard and uneducated idiots here would be Smaethin and Deathclaw. Both retards are still battling on how to make themself look like the smartest person alive on the CO forum, but turns out to be ignorant uneducated fools.
