VPS6 website down?

@Francisco The suspense !
@Jack
@Francisco told me it was 550k of SYN flood. Whoops!
Maybe I should stop using @Francisco 's name to troll people...
or not
Uhhh... DDoS. "distributed".
I thought that, but someone pointed that it can be made from a single computer. That's why I say that. 2 days with DDoS and the DC can't even notice that?!
Do you like more 550,455 k of SYN?
@netomx He told me it was 789 million giga terrabits.
terrabits?! Does that word even exist?!
Why, are you behind this? I get tired of the question, how big, and now always answer it with some impossible number I make up, it's nobodies business.
One source = DoS, not DDoS.
It can be, but it's relatively rare.
FWIW, both my OpenVZ containers on ch22 are down (and have been since late yesterday). Whoops, read my edit below...
They certainly shouldn't be, please get in touch with us (or me directly) right away!
The techs are manning support[at]vps6.net as well as the live chat box on http://vps6.net, otherwise feel free to PM me here.
@vps6net: Well, this is a real foot-in-mouth. I don't have any web-facing services on those machines and I was too lazy to check directly, so that comment was based on Pingdom reports (1, 2), which, now that I look more closely, don't even jive with their own overall status. I'm really sorry :P
@MrDOS No worries, ping is going to look a little funny while our filters are still in place. Glad to hear everything is alright.
Any update on the main site Jeremy?
Oh and by the way I still need a copy of your driver's license, utility bills, credit check, passport, and VIN# or you're Dan Fry. I kid, I kid.
Your site is still down.
Probably because he's doing things right vs rushing it before it's ready. I rather wait another day and have it stay up vs him tossin it up right now and it going down every few hours.
I have nothing more to say, I am too tired to argue and explain how the whole situation is just utterly ridiculous. Good day chap
I agree VPS6 having to waste their time dealing with flooding is utterly ridiculous. If those responsible would man up and stop there wouldn't be a problem. This continued abuse of a free and open internet is the exact thing that's going to, in part, ruin it for everyone. I'd be shocked if the internet wasn't insanely regulated by the year 2020.
You don't say.
This +1, we got DDoSd to hell and back for about one week just for posting on LET (Damn you constantinos) but we put the money in and got some DDoS protected hosting.
Why haven't VPS6 invested any money yet.
It's most likely "transition" to new company extended downtime anyway. This time atleast customer service isn't affected (yet).
I like how @CVPS_Chris just bashes nearly every other provider >_>
except some untouchables....
Quinn from VPS6 told me they plan on having VPS6.net back up by friday.
Umm... what is moving the site to a different IP going to do? Unless you have a way to do HTTP (a TCP/IP protocol) without revealing the endpoints' IPs... (And no - cloudflare does NOT count)
Well, you can use buyVM filtering service =P
Because CloudFlare isn't an anti-ddos solution
You can be next on my list if you would like, can we take it there?
Just go away, I have nothing worth saying to you.
There are no untouchables, who are they you speak of?
Is this Jack as is Jack from DotVPS? Also, how am I supposed to know your a client. We have hundreds of Jacks. On top of that you had no place in this conversation, let us hash it out no need to get mixed in the middle.
*unzips* My penis shall be the lance of my will.
... had to
I've seen Chris criticize people's actions quite often (providers and clients alike); hell, I do the same. But unless you actively try to rile him up he doesn't just badmouth another company.
