I wondered what happened...

No one deserves a denial-of-service attack. Those who launch them are evil people.

Hey! Why is Fyron back to being National Security Advisor? He's supposed to be Ruler of the World.

I don't understand, was someone using spaceempires.net for spamming or was spaceempires.net spammed until it crashed?

Re: Space Empires.net seems to be down
 

SE.net was not involved in the spamming, neither sending nor receiving it. SE.net was not on a dedicated server (as that is expensive...); it was a different user that sent the spam.

You have got to be ****ting me! SE.net was taken down because someone said you were spamming! Don't they investigate these things? Oh wait, no they don't, look at what happed to other sites.

This really stinks! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon8.gif

No no no. It was a different user on the same server, not me. Noone accused SE.net of spamming.

Cable does not have enough uploading bandwidth to host the site...

I would rather use Linux to host a site, as it is free. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif
