I've seen the attacker's twitter. They're just fucking with streamers and their followers by attacking the realms they play on but don't do much else.

The twitter account got banned already.
Stalagg has been stable for the past 30 minutes, hopefully it stays that way.

Lendryn, off topic... there is something poetic about seeing a polymorph and TOEP avatar back to back. Feels wholesome :biggrin: :mrgreen:

Happening again, right as we started the BRD arena. Can't wait to log in to this 5 minute corpse run. :sad:

Linux users, like me, are currently blocked from playing because of the measures Blizzard has implemented.

OP: https://eu.forums.blizzard.com/en/wow/t/recent-ddos-attacks-impacting-game-service/83272/35

Hello everyone. We wanted to return to this subject and put some closure on it. As always, It is our top priority to resolve any issues that prevent players from having a smooth gameplay experience.

Immediately after the Distributed Denial of Service attacks against our game service began, the Blizzard Security Team worked around the clock with local and international law enforcement agencies to track down the source of the DDoS. It is our understanding that, within a few days, authorities were able to successfully identify and arrest a suspect.

We really appreciate your patience and understanding.

lol I saw this thread get bumped and though 'Another DDos attack' meant another DDoS attack. Glad to see this is just an old thread and not another DDoS attack.
