It hasn't been ddosed, there's just too many guests viewing the forums.

(Or is it? )

irate:ed you.


Omni's gotten good at ddos protection, the site is still up, but the error:
Code: 
SQL Error:
    1203 - User hfdbuser already has more than 'max_user_connections' active connections

I think omni limited the amount of guests browsing the forums, could be some kid sending his bots there.

That error occurs globally, for when 12,000 connections are open (an obvious attack)
It refuses to load pages as a safety percaution so that his server (possibly shared rack) doesn't hit 100% usage/cpu.

His firewall is worth about $500/700

That error occurs globally, for when 12,000 connections are open <<-- and i never saw even more then 1k members online

Not sure. I have a $230 (XLGuard) firewall, and round robin.
I can fight off the attack, and constantly change my nameservers IP until they give up.

Any site goes down depending on how much bots they have. They could hit your hoster.

I'll probably rage. Although, you see it's only down because Omni isn't awake. He could fix it simply, it's just a few commands away.

Omni is a fucking boss.

456 users active in the past 5 minutes (61 members, 5 of whom are invisible, and 394 guests).

I guess it's being DDoSed?

This happened to me for a couple of times. I even took a screen-shot of the Online Users as there were only thirty or more. It was such a strange view for Hack Forums.

Actually, it isn't a ddos. Omni has already stressed about that hardware failure from the datacenter.
