I have been threatened by either XD or his friends to DDoS me. How can you tell if you have been DDoSed?

Could you explain my blue screens of this kernal inpage error thing and the disk that my Blockland is installed on-corruption?

DDoS usually just means that you can't connect to the internet, I'm not familiar with it causing corruptions like a virus would

Unless he's on a different connection like 3G, it still wouldn't work. Not everybody has that.

DDoS doesn't cause blue screens and corruption of data. It's just sending a stuff ton of packets to your router causing it to overwork. The only side effect is your internet would be down, or incredibly slow.

Everything else is a different problem altogether.

Direct Denial of Service, or DDoS is an attack to a specific computer or server using the targets IP. It spams connection packets, usually bringing internet services to a halt. It's also illegal.

You'd know that you were being DDoSed if you look at recent computer activity in some sort of malware protection program. You'd see some sort of thing rapidly trying to successively re-connect.

Distributed Denial of Service, not direct.

Also you'd never get arrested for ddosing a run of the mill person lol

DDoS and DoS are essentially the same thing. The only difference is there's multiple attackers rather than one.
