Empire based fansites - Page 6

It sounds like we need to have a duel of the empires!

I'm the owner of the http://vanu-sovereignty.com site and I can assure you that I would not delve as low as to hack opposing faction portals. I'd much prefer to get even while in-game!

I also chose my host carefully. Enjin has a good track record of holding up against the craziest of Denial-of-service attacks, something you can't get for a similar price point.

I wish you well on the web front and hope you can repel future attacks!

P.S: Shameless plug for http://vanu-sovereignty.com , join the party if you're part of the VS!

I'm glad you registered the domain out from under me, to be honest. Running one bad ass site is difficult enough, let alone three. As far as pointing fingers, I never directly did. It was more of an attempt at bad humor.

I have a good host as well, and even the best hosted sites get DDoS'ed. Look at FBI.gov. they get dossed and are down occasionally too. Pretty hard to stop a dedicated botnet with hundreds of zombies. Best thing about dossing is it isn't permanent.

http://www.vanu-coalition.com/

This is what i have so far.
Purpose of the site is to gather Vanu Outfits and encourage a colaboration between them through secure channels of communication.

Joint Strikeforces, Strategical planning.

Not only that, but also a place where people can share their stories and experiences abit semi RP if you wish.

There's also a outfit / alliance system where people essentialy can create their own discussions / outfits on the site which give em access to Outfit Photos/Videos/Discussions/events specificly for that outfit.

And ofc it can be set to invite only.

To get access to the secure channels you must get verified, to get verified im thinking something in the lines of...

We have to talk to you ingame, on the forum, on your site, on voice coms and you have to be recommended by another outfit thats already verified.

Last bit will be abit hard for the first couple of outfits but we'll work that out.
Was thinking that 1 person will have to represent the outfit in the secure section?
We won't be completely secure from spies but we sure as hell can make it harder for em.

Not sure if any of that made any sense

Our site is back up! Damn script kiddies knocked my forum offline for a day, but it's restored! Lost a few posts, but otherwise back to 100%.

Welcome back

Have had a few attempts at my site already but nothing major.

So far its a fair few failed injections

Why do these little shits do this? Our sites offer a service, no matter the faction!

The hack had nothing to do with PlanetSide or faction, it was a random attack based on common software exploits. If you look up the name that was on the home page you can find their Facebook page where they display links to all the sites they have "provided a security service" for.

Yep, i saw that too. Saw their FB page. It does appear to be random.

I reported it and just got this in response as expected :/
