Wonderful World of DDoS

[mhwest]

As some of you may know, LiveJournal has been under attack this morning from 6:00am PST until ??? We have taken steps to mitigate the DDoS but some users may still experience site connectivity problems. We are aware of these issues, and would like to take this moment to explain we are doing everything we can to keep the site up and running 100%,

it was happened right after I asked to change the Levi's background color from black to blue

this task completely overloaded your possibilities :)

I didn't notice a problem. I read about it on metafilter. Nice work you all are doing.

I've never understood the concept of being an asshole just to be an asshole. It's not like these attacks actually accomplish anything...

Considering the DDoS attacks are going for social networking sites, perhaps someone has no friends and is really bitter about it.

People who use social networking sites have....friends?!!

I mean real friends, not text and icons on the screen...

Well I was mostly thinking of the sad lonely excuses of people who don't even have the illusionary friends of social networking.

(Though I'm at least friends with a few of the people I've "friended".)
