152, 154 keep dropping connections since maint, but at least I am not suffering 30 second lag like all day yesterday.... thanks evony, made defending nigh on impossible :(
it does not matter what they say, Evony Gods have totally screwed us over. How many times of late have we had this problem. Cannot log on, getting kicked off. How many people have begged for server merges. Did you know that there is a game where ex evony players are going? Maybe they will look after their members. Evony ? you need to take note. You are no longer the only game like this. I am trying it out. The ONLY thing that holds me here are my friends.
You have so many angry members here you would be really really stupid to ignore them. You want to stay afloat ? You are heading down the wrong road.
Wonder if its a DDOS attack..
anyone explain what DDOS attacks are? have a vague idea, not entirely sure
a helluva lot of computers trying to access the server all at once causing the server to crash
that's a DDoS attack (distributed denial of service attack)
the login server will then block all those who are trying to login
that's a defense mechanism
if evony doesn't have staggered reset timings, this defense mechanism could be triggered when a lot of accts on a lot of servers try to login at the same time
ahhh right, yeah that would make sense to be a reason behind the problems caused recently
No, it is not a DDOS. There are hardware issues that are being addressed, I've given an update here.
