To start, I'd like to say whoever is behind these pathetic DDOS attacks need to get a clue and understand that they're costing a lot of BST providers money. They're also pissing off a lot of VERY knowledgeable people with a heavy I.T. background. Not a wise move, whatsoever. I know you guys will have this resolved quickly.
I am waiting for that so that I can donate and join Jr. VIP. To the blue's that I have already spoken to back and fourth over the last year, here I come. Lol

No shit Sherlock, why do you think they attack it in the 1st place? Money, perhaps some pride or satisfaction besides that.

Cloudflare is fine for regular sites but not so hot for DDOS attacks. Incapsula works wonders with those along with blocking funky bots too. I was wondering what was going on with the site the past few days and one of my VPS hosts went through it yesterday too.

BlackHatWorld will always have a big red target painted on it. I'm sure lots of people would love to see it wiped from the face of the internet, because they would stand to gain either in promoting their own forums or generally in less competition in the sector.
There have been numerous DDOS attacks that I have seen here, but the good ship sails on. Good luck getting it fixed DD.

Thanks for all the hard work involved with stopping the DOS.
In the end, a lot of people thing its something personal going on, that may be true, however I grew up in low income housing,and I know for a fact that people will do some of the most ignorant things to other people property, simply if they are jealous of them having something they do not have.
I notice the same trend on the internet as well, at a much higher extent though, because of how easy it is to hide behind your computer and ruin everyone else time and what not.
There are people that will happen upon a nice car and key the fuck out of it, just because they can and for what ever reason,it makes their own day better, no clue how, but it does.again,
thanks for the huge effort in stopping the DOS, I heard it is not an easy thing to do.

couldn't someone just set up a few computers to all run on diff proxies or virtual servers or w/e they do
and just let them run 24/7 DOS till the end of time if they really wanted?

You need thousands of simultaneous connections running at the same time. Who's gonna pay for all of those computers lol. that's why botnets are used instead.

Oh, thanks.
I must have misread the info on when Anonymous took down paypal a few years back.
I always thought it only took a few computers to do a DOS because each one can spam the fuck out of the server
using muti-threading or w/e.
In the end, I really do not see the point of people doing this sort of stuff to total strangers.
They cant possibly be profiting from it and most likely is costing them money.
It just does not make any sense to me that some people will do what ever they can to screw over others
if someone just happens to have something better than they do.
Like everyone is saying, instead of wasting huge chunks of time and money trying to ruin someone elses profiting business,
divert that time and energy into making your own business profitable.
jealousy is the root of all evil though.

A DOS attack can be carried out with ONE machine and a DDOS is carried out with MANY machines via BOTNETS
