Germany DA reseller hosting is down
Please make it online again..
It's on and off. I opened a ticket. Got reply when it's up that there is no issue and sites are loading fine. Again it's going down for an hour or something. Hope @labze will do some work on dade1 server soon.
Same for the US Directadmin server
So many downtime's today.
Is server in Germany down? Can't access my website or panel.
Thanks
It's up again. Seems like someone is taking turns with layer 7 attacks across the servers. Working on protections against this
Just wanted to leave my 2 cents here about HostBrr. I can truly say they are the best and cheapest provider I've had. Their support tickets get answered in minutes, which is crazy. Speed is great on shared plan. I've moved all my sites over and couldn't be happier. It's been a year and I am happy to stay. Cheers guys.
Thanks for the kind words!
I can also say that much of the stability issues should be resolved. What a ride. One of the culprits seems to have hidden in plain sight for me. We did have a user sign up for multiple reseller accounts and created approximately 1500-2000 accounts per server and loaded them with node.js scripts across thousands of domains. They'd initiate an attack on these domains. Since the server logs indicated so many different domains were receiving so many requests it was never obvious that they all belonged to one singular account.
Checking the node.js scripts it was clear that these has no other functionality than to process each requests as slowly as possible.
What the actual fuck is wrong with people.
i love labze
I don't quite understand this kind of operation that harms others and does not benefit yourself.
It's crazy how some people spend their own money just to make others lose theirs like WTF!?
I had no complaint about the speed in Dade1 server shared plan. But as Labze said the Ddos killed it and pushed me to move out to another provider. Hope Labze will filter out such bad users and maintain the speed and uptime.
How exactly people sign up 4000 accounts?
--
I would guess:
4000 sub-accounts via [unknown number of ] reseller accounts.
this is why i hate people
One reseller account per node. Around 1500 sub-accounts per reseller. Around 2-3 domains per sub-account.
Can cmypanel come back just for this weekend please
Why would someone do that?
Who would do that?
I suspect it would be done to encourage buyers to pay for overpriced hosting services. To damage the reputation of cheaper providers.
The Who would likely be those businesses owned by corporations and investment groups. Those that sell hosting for one domain for $30 per month.
The culprit(s) need to be outed and shamed. And what they did was probably illegal somewhere, but chasing them would be a lost cause.
The type of people that do this literally have nothing better to do. It's slimy, malicious and just pointless. Perhaps it makes their miserable existence a little more bearable? No clue, but what I do know is whatever they are hoping to achieve, they will get the opposite of. @labze if there is anything I can do to help you out, please feel free to dm me. Cheers all!
Don't even get me started on this. Back when I was a young teen, still new to the whole tech world of hosting, domains, etc, I created my first website using.....Godaddy..... I was a teen, in school, and wrote every single day on that site, even got a sponsorship from a poker company to review their site.. Well it came time to renew my domain the next year. I got the domain name for 99cents. When it needed to be renewed...Just about 100$ CAD. I was still in high school, I couldn't afford that. So I had no choice but to let it die. Once the domain was theirs, they sold it as a premium domain for over 2500 USD... I never ever forgot that hard lesson, and to this day I still have a hole in me from the business I could have by now. Makes me sick.
That's why I am so grateful to companies like HostBrr, and communities like this one. It helps people. Sorry for the rant, but the predatory nature of some corps and godaddy struck a nerve.
Coupons not available anymore sir @labze
The connection keeps dropping and coming back. What is the reason for this? @labze
Open a ticket. Can't really know what your issue is from this.

Hi all,
I think is a business scam to lower trust on other businesses.
I recently had a domain name purchased for a business, put up a small site in HTML, and almost after 1 year received an email that something was incorrect with address, than my name, than my street, I could not renew it. Soon 2 weeks after renew i check who was accessing the domain were from 15 countries.
I could not register with my registrar, even my visa card was giving errors.
Renew was €3, + VAT + late €30.
Domain value (when I saw after that trouble) $3.000
Was purchased by several companies outside Europe..... and the European Union says the address has to be in Europe....... yahhh.....
Now it is worth millions.........
Now I cannot look for the domain.... bad memories...... I get upset..........
Hi @labze please process my ticket #2171981, thanks
