Manuel server crashes?

[ToastedSyrup]

I was reading some chat things (After the server crashed a couple times) and I found something strange, it seems UltimateNJ has been using a hack to crash the server... here's what I have on it.

Note the middle picture I switched accidently, and now I can't find it. But it was basically me asking My_Dinner how he was doing that.

I will be looking into this, cheers.

Thanks. The server has also been going slowly. (still) and it dropping out is happening commonly. Someone said it might be DDos. Still not entirely sure what that is, but it sounds bad.

Chances are he/she was using a DDoS like you said.  they are easy to do and a crime depending on where you are, and where the target is. They are as simple as downloading a program, like LOIC,  and running it.  If you are dumb you will set it to rapid and could practically take down any site in the world.  If you are in America the FBI will become your new best friend. The hack groups of anonymous do this stupid crap and think they're some kind of ultimate hacker or something.

If they live in Australia, or Europe, or somewhere along the lines of that, would action be taken? I would assume so, but I wanna be sure.

This is being dealt with in a private matter, and I won't be giving away information like this.
The main focus is to get the server up and running again, which is being worked on now by my hosts support.

Locked.
