- So far we worked with Hyperfilter, OVH, Amazon, Dedistart companies and their DDoS protection wasn't sufficient enough to mitigate the attacks ''properly''. The problem we got in there is that because of the type and the scale of the attack, it's hard for the providers to keep the legitimate users online while blocking the bad IP's.
- Our Amazon setup has been being improved for our needs in the past 25 hours. Especially, we have business level support to get help from their IT's continuously but it's taking time.
- We are soon switching our provider to CloudFlare and alternatively to DDoS-Guard.
- Alternatively, we are in touch with 4 more companies.

If you do not have patience for downtimes, it may be better to have a break today. Because we are not going to shut down the server, we need it running so that we can work.

I suppose, some other servers are also being targeted and down. I don't know what's going on with such large scale attacks in PSRO, which never happened in the past, but this will eventually go away, it's about time.



My apologies for the inconvenience.

It's ok to leave one of them as an announcement room to share your updates, why are you doing it in all of them? I donated more than 100eu to this server and I can't even write something on its discord channel.

Totally agreed. They shouldnt close national channels. We want to stay close with our friends but we cant if they blocked all channels.

ANNOUNCEMENT

WE ARE BACK ONLINE



- The server is up and running since last night with no issues.
- We received 300GBPS DDoS attacks last night according to our current provider, however it did not affect our server status and was mitigated successfully, without interrupting players connections.



Conclusion
- It appears, the most active servers, Electus, JoySRO, SRO-Royale and bunch of others were under target recently. We were receiving 200 to 300 gbps ddos attacks and because of the specific attack type (kind of exploiting the sro sockets), anti-ddos providers were not able to mitigate the attacks without interruption players connections. We worked with Hyperfilter, Dedistart, OVH, Amazon and several other companies to mitigate these attacks but it did not work. The final one that we are currently working with appears to be the most reliable one for SRO and can guard us against such large scale attacks. That being said, we are back online and the adventure continues in Poseidon server on it's 26th day.

DDOS is nothing new in the world of online games.

There is nothing anyone or any "professional" can do against. Any game is subject to DDOS and no one can do anything about it.

You can even go ahead and DDOS League of Legends servers if you would like to. The only difference is... LoL is a much bigger game than these pservers, and so they have a lot of resources to haunt your *** and track you down and end your life for even trying to DDOS them.

Electus was doing the right thing by going around finding different providers to protect against such a large scale DDOS attack. I don't know what else you want from them (or from a small private server), they did all they can.

Stop spreading bullshit about things you don't even know anything about or how they work. kthxbye
