2/28/24 - DDOS Attack

You are actually paying for access to a server, which isn’t guaranteed to up 100% of the time. Read the Blizzard EULA, look under limited liability.

There’s nothing to tighten - A DDoS, Distributed Denial-of-Service, is basically when someone floods a gateway with infomation to the point of shutting down. You may as well say they should put more guards at the front doors to HQ to stop DDoS.

It’s not world-wide. I’ve been logged in for hours with no issues. If it were world-wide there would be a lot more posts about it, instead of just a couple posts in this thread.
