Question  10-16-2011, 02:42 PM (This post was last modified: 09-01-2022, 01:00 AM by Fearless Community. Edit Reason: Checked Encoding )
It seems that Fearless RP has been bombarded by storms of lag over the past day, as well as the website going down. Are we under attack?

Perhaps there is a family of chipmunks living inside the server, feasting on the wires...

I'm also wondering if this has anything to do with that weird .exe file that people were talking about...

well i think it might be because the server randomly started to have Massive lag spikes every one at 999 ping and it was like every 5 min burst and then it just crashed along with the website :/ i'm guessing the worst Sad

Well I know that this happened, I was there, but these are the symptoms, the cause is still unknown...

Oh I've heard of this... but I don't get this diagram:

The part that I don't understand is the top half... Is the attacker running multiple clients or something?
