    Solved DDOS Attack Warning!

    Post by Neymar1 November 2nd 2012, 6:48 pm

    It's not an empty threat either. There could be a very large DDOS Attack on the way to the forum in my profile.

    It WILL happen, this is just a warning so you know.

    Hello. I dont know how to add a warn button to my website. Like the one you guys have. I am referring to the one where you can warn a user, and then when youvwarn them so many times it bans their account. How do I do this. If you need the link here it is:

    Neymar experienced a DDoS attack on an external website, and presumably received a threat of another one to the Forumotion.

    However, Forumotion's request limit should prevent it doing any damage.

    Yeah, that's it.

    It was just in case it did end up doing damage as it seemed to be a very powerful attack.

    Basically, if there is an attack on the forum which is very likely, you know what it is I suppose.

    @onefoe: there should be a 'New Topic' button in each forum. It looks like this:
