I would say the only thing they actually accomplished was helping us identify and fix security issues.

I hope so!.. It's still hard to believe what it would actually be like if things were ruined ever.

We have hackers because people want a challenge, and a DoS isn't really that creative for or challenging to computer security experts. Basically he was just knocking on the door so much that the resident couldn't hear legitimate users. This guy was just being a douche.

Edit: Some do it for money as well, of course.

Probably one of those dumbasses who got banned and now screams bloody murder saying the emu is illegal or some BS like that and realized his crappy youtube videos arent doing anything to help him screw the emu over and that got his panties in a bunch so he tried a large dose of electronic retardation failing miserably.

If you find the retard direct him to my sig lol.

Stupidity at its finest.

the Everquest Emulator people have similar problems with their loginserver, it is a vulnerability in the netcode as a result of the reverse engineering process one of the former devs from that project now one of the devs of EQ2emu http://eq2emulator.net has fixed the problem with their login system his sn is image you can get a hold of him here http://eqemu.devnoob.com Im not sure how he did it but he implimentd some major security upgrades to the login server and since all soe games use the same netcode maybe you can talk to him hes a pretty good guy and will probably tell you how to shore up the LS Security. Hes prety much an expert on the SOE netcode encryption and protocols.

as for DoS attacking you cant get more lame then that. Im not a huge fan obviously but seriously if your reading this please know that you are a fail of epic scale.

BTW programmers are hackers crackers are the script kiddies that do DoS Attacks and crap like that please dont confuse the two
