@Brightbull, how's SwiftVM tie in? What umm, well evidence of attack points back... Note Shoves holder site I think is hosted out in your area...
they use the same San Diego DC shovehost uses.
Damn @DomainBop... Wonder if Shovey is a customer of SwiftVM or just attacking from another provider...
I don't even know what's going on with shovehost anymore, simply can't take all of this crap.
@shovenose (even though you are banned)
Thanks for this thread, my coffee went down well and I felt quite satisfied to see you have been banned.
He was funny for a short while, but unless he's an amazing troll, it's embarrasing to read
In regards to how Swift_VM ties in @Pubcrawler we had a ~300+mbit flood in and out earlier, PPS over 500K/s in each direction total.
Did you by any chance attack us? Our site had a bit of a cry for a few moments.
Annoying.
Everyone automatically blaming shovenose for the attacks now they have a log of him using a perl script.
Childish. You have no facts, it could be anyone.
You can't do anything, deal with it.
You're right it could be but he said he did it to different providers so why shouldn't we think it was him?
Because this market is very big and everyone wants everything, you can't automatically blame him unless you have good enough proof of him attacking you.
Ugh.
Someone should still tell his parents.
what's going on ... never watched jersey shore but aparently i don't need to, enough action
Invest in better protection rather than attempting to blame someone. It could be an annoyed customer of yours.
90k isn't even 70mbps.
I really doubt it's Shovenose, and I do agree that now he's going to be a scapegoat for everyone's DDoS problems. He doesn't have a malicious intent from what I see, just a little dumb and annoying...
Understatement of the year right there
That's rich coming from you. Didn't your customers recently have to endure several DDoS related outages because your company BlueVM hadn't invested in "better protection".
Agreed, he's not the one responsible for the large scale UK DDoS attacks. I don't think he has the technical skills required to mount 15GB+ attacks.
If anyone has got evidence that this was done against httpzoom.com or any other of my websites please PM me with the evidence and I'll get it straight over to the solicitor.
No, It's not rich coming from us because we were getting 20gbps.. not 70mbps.
Great, another provider who posts tickets or other things their clients say on a public forum. * adds to list of providers to avoid *
Sorry what? That wasn't from our ticket desk FYI. We have full legal right to disclose this information publicly.
If you want a provider who will defend you in court in the LEB range when you have directly broken the law without question, then yes I urge you to add me to your list to avoid. A legal request was made and complied with. The legal justification was sound and therefore not worth fighting.
What do you think this has to do with posting on a forum?
I assumed it was a jab at me for not respecting my client's privacy.
@jarland. +1 for hawk monitoring your nodes. Real impressed.
There's no doubt his attack as far as we know weren't of this nature and he has not a clue.
No idea what else and where else he might have ran anything. But expect the attack to be same type.
I see a concerning pattern though with providers here who can't weather a 5 MPH breeze let alone an attack.
Hope to see more ads talking up both uptime and attack mitigation. Going to become necessary insurance when shopping around here.
