Guide: Surviving (D)DoS spikes - SoulRipper - 12-17-2011
How do I survive a DDoS lag spike?
At CityRP we have daily DDoS attacks, most attacks takes around 2 minutes, resulting that you get disconnected from the server.
A common mistake is that the server crashes by a DDoS attack, sometimes it does, but mostly the server just runs fine, but you are unable to connect to it since the connection get's attacked.
Here is a bypass to survive most huge ddos lag spikes, by increasing the disconnect time which is standard only 30 seconds.
1. Start Gmod and press the ~ key, this key is left to the number 1 key, or above the Tab key.
2. The console will open, now type in:
Code:
cl_timeout 30003. Restart Gmod.
You're done, now you will survive most ddos attacks and you will be able to continue your RP. Just get yourself a cup of tea or whatever, while your Gmod tries to restore connection. This doesn't work for normal crashes, only for attacks.

Great idea to let people know about this little trick, as many of the lag spikes last way more than 30 seconds. But today the lag spikes caused everyone's view to get stuck and freeze up.

I used to survive DOS attacks, but then I took a lag to the knee.

How I survive DDoS attacks...
I leave and play Deus Ex. I'm not playing for 30 minutes when some sad little loner is DDoSing it.

What does "DDOS" mean? What is it?

Distributed Denial Of Service
its when a lot of packets of data are being sent to the server from multiple locations causing it to backup and lag and even crash

When the server gets DDoS'd I go outside.
