DDoS support?

[Proxybypass]

I don't know if this hosting has it, but there's two ways to protect against a DDoS.

Either set it up with the hosting, to basically send trash "traffic" (It's read by if large amount of traffic is coming in at once, it'll block it)

Or get a https (HTTP Secure) And this way, in order for our site to be taken off line they'll have to directly hit our API, and considering most skids taking the time to hit a RS forum, they won't know how to get the API of a site.

You can't just "buy DDOS hosting" without any funds or donations. The forum doesn't receive a lot of money from donations, just enough to keep it up for the month. We use what we can use.

Lol?
Dude, u cant say that nothing will DDoS The site If It has some kind of DDoS Protection.
Maybe a booter or something cant, but If someone wants to crash this site he just uses a botnet, It goes through everything.

Not necessarily, I have precautions and measures set up against DDOS attacks.

If you have a big enough botnet, u can take down everything, DDoS Protection or not.

It takes the right technique to mitigate an attack.

Trust me, If u got a big botnet, u also know how to use It.

A botnet costs DAMN much moneys, and DAMN much time.

Not unless you make it yourself

If you have Https, it actually makes a huge difference, like I said, then the API needs to be hit, not the IP they get from pinging us.

Had to clean up the thread, no hacking/cracking or black hat discussions.

Ah ok, sorry, didn't mean for it to get out of hand.
