He actually did Ddos but all it did was bring zelaron down while he was doing it. He probably still does it when he's bored.

The fuck is Ddos?
DDOS = Distributed Denial of Service.
"On the Internet, a distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack is one in which a multitude of compromised systems attack a single target, thereby causing denial of service for users of the targeted system. The flood of incoming messages to the target system essentially forces it to shut down, thereby denying service to the system to legitimate users.
A hacker (or, if you prefer, cracker) begins a DDoS attack by exploiting a vulnerability in one computer system and making it the DDoS "master." It is from the master system that the intruder identifies and communicates with other systems that can be compromised. The intruder loads cracking tools available on the Internet on multiple -- sometimes thousands of -- compromised systems. With a single command, the intruder instructs the controlled machines to launch one of many flood attacks against a specified target. The inundation of packets to the target causes a denial of service."
---Taken from some website.
Basically, Mantralord is flooding Zelaron with connections.

Wow. The fact that someone could be that nerdy and that spiteful at the same time horrifies me to no end. That's fucking lame.

Heh. If he wanted to come back, one would figure he would stop tripping over himself, think of an original username, and use his proxy to register as a new person.
What a dick.

Mantralord is a good guy off Zelaron, he's helped me do several things, I don't think I could have done without his help, and I've banned him myself from here..

Denial Of Service attack. It means Zel go bye bye until he stops. You'll get a Page Not Found error.

I would said he knows what he is doing... very smart

Well, all he can do is keep it down until he stops and it comes back up. He can't do any serious damage from a single computer.

I know for a fact he has Ddosed, I've talked to him while he's done it, I've even got the program he uses.

That is if it was him who did it, which is wasn't, as Chruser has already explained, it was due to the guy who runs the server using the wrong database back-up when he switched something over.

Sorry about that last post, I didn't read all the replies, so I didn't know someone already explained it.

Me too.
And yeah Mantra is cool. I've talked to him for quite a while.

If he has, then he has... but that probly was within 2weeks of ban right? I am sure he is over it, I mean he has fun making new names even with a programming sense

Why is his pic still up? If he's perm banned, it's kinda stupid.

We do use cron jobs to back up the databases. The incident happened because our web host was installing a control panel for the server, and he backed up all the files on the site plus the wrong database (zelaron), when the real database (zelaron_test) was not backed up. The daily backups were deleted, and restoring the board from an incorrect database obviously didn't work. Now, the backup I had on my hard drive was 9 days old... Well, you get the idea.
Pwn pwn pwn.

Well, the difference between a DoS and a DDoS attack is generally that a DoS attack is performed from a single computer. It can still bring down relatively large sites, especially if they already have a heavy user load. A DDoS attack can bring down just about any site if there are enough users to perform the attack. One user can pretty much log onto the target site with an average of a thousand simulated connections. So, imagine what that does if a DDoS attack with a thousand of computers involved target a server. Not many servers can handle a million users.
The DDoS technique was used in the MyDoom virus. Generally, all users infected were set to attack huge sites, such as microsoft.com and bring them down.
