So rare to have a server run for more than a day now... - Rust

Anybody else feel like every server just gets ddosed the first day and dies the same day? :/

Nope.

I should've been more specific, but I'm talking about the community servers, not modded.

I've got a community server that's been great and gone without attacks even though the pop is normally between 10 and 40

[QUOTE=Tudy;45551158]ye im usually in really populated servers, and thats where the ddos happens[/QUOTE] How do you know they're getting DDOSed? Got access to their traffic logs or something or are you just assuming because you get connection problems?

Server freezes and u cant do anything. Also everyone says its ddos, so does the owner/admins/friends, herp derp.

[QUOTE=Hoffa1337;45551205]How do you know they're getting DDOSed? Got access to their traffic logs or something or are you just assuming because you get connection problems?[/QUOTE] It's pretty obvious when a server is being DDOSd...

[QUOTE=Warm;45552987]It's pretty obvious when a server is being DDOSd...[/QUOTE] It's not. It might aswell be a shitty host who stacks server after server on one piece of hardware/VM. A lack of CPU power or memory can also cause these freezes. The only way to be sure that it's a DDOS is to check trafficlogs on the routers from the host or a statement from the host. If you dont have that info, dont assume it from other players. Most people just yell stupid shit, same as most admins by the way.
