Hi all,

So, as someone who does a bit of DDOS mitigation on some minecraft stuff, wouldn't it be possible to DDOS the DDOSer, thus causing them to be shut down? That being said, im not attempting to organize a DDOS, but just blaitent curiosity.

You have to find the DDoSer first, which is not an easy task.

Are you saying that you want proof or this is proof or your link is proof?  I have no idea what you're saying.  This is what happens when you don't use verbs.
Whoops, read that incorrectly.
I'm just so used to an edit button with things like this, I don't normally over-read something I type up.

Im guessing that badspot could just pull a IP (ips?) out of said DDOS shunt hes using at the moment. At best we could call up the ISP he/she/it is using and attempt to get some action taken

If the IPs are spoofed or from a botnet, then what?

Don't delay this based on "ifs".
If we have a chance to shut down the DDoS-er, we need to take it.

If the IPs are spoofed, then it becomes another story. We need to see the IPs first, and locate their origin. If its a botnet, then we are fairly SOL other then contacting one of the users somehow and getting them to run wireshark on their computer. Wireshark will allow us to see what IP is sending the work to be processed from the slave.


I said I was a hack.

We have no definite proof as of now if this is a "hack" or if this is a DDOS. We dont even know if this is one single person with some form of ungodly high bandwidth internet, or if this is a botnet. Kindly do not make allegations you can not back up.


If Okiver is behind the attack, then we need to hit him hard

"WE"? As if you or anyone else besides Badspot is going to be responsible for remedying this issue. If you want to help, do nothing.

I'm simply meaning the community, if you have an idea post it, this is probably Okivers dirty work
