“AW LET’S RUIN SOMETHING FOR MILLIONS OF PEOPLE BECAUSE——————”
Fuck off.
firstly how did you get the damn thing to work? second ugh wow guys way to be fails. I’m sorry Blizz. You don’t deserve the shit you’re getting today.
If you’re complaining about Blizzard failing at a launch or sitting in a queue (during a launch, hi, you must be new to this 10 year old game) please see the above chart of the current state of DDoS attacks. They had to put the caps in place, it won’t be this bad forever, launches are always rough, and an attack made things 110% worse.
If you, like several others I encountered yesterday, need an explanation of what a DDoS attack is in 2014: please take a break from this website and World of Warcraft for a bit and just go check on the rest of the world really, really fast. 🙂 (Maybe stretch your legs and get some water too.)
First time I ever heard of ddosing was when they did it to WoW and Wildstar and the other mmo’s less than half a year ago (still 2014). Might wanna dial back that condescension and not act like it’s a 20 year old problem that’s as common as sunshine.
Actually it is literally a 20 year old problem that’s as common as sunshine. smurf.c was released in 1997. (Released, not discovered. Who knows how long ago that was.)
