Just an observation, no offense but SubPixel always seems to have a negative minded response

There are ways (can't remember sorry) to make your router reject ping requests. Or at least reduce the maximum bytes the router will accept for ping requests.
There's no way blocking ICMP is going to protect you from a DoS. In fact, blocking requests on any port will not help if the attacker has more upload speed than your download speed.

There's no positive response to what he said. It's just not true at all.

Well how else would I prevent it? I'm pretty sure my ISP would be able to do it. I most likely won't start one just because Hammereditor5 has been so much help and i dont want to compete. But if it would take some load off, Hammer i could set up a datacenter. I have access to "Biz Class" servers. Like my HP

Multi millionaires can't even prevent it. I've seen many large companies and games harmed by DDoSes.

Well maybe i should host any but my own. Im NATing my network with an airport.

He is quite helpful at points also. Hes not salty.

If you want to start a hosting service, be prepared for the DDoS attacks!
Unless he doesn't go public

Not go public? Like for friends?

If his friends DDoS him he needs to find some new friends

Maybe true

If you don't know how to program a control panel, do not start a public hosting service.

Woahh Hold your horses. I'm not trying to start anything with you. There's no need for the attitude in every post that's all, just chill out mannn
