MaxCheaters.com for 2 weeks now is under DDos attack, known as Botnet , causing mysql,and apache to lag. I have spent a lot of time trying the best software filters, without 100% success. mod_evasive, mod_security, cloudflare proxies, csf firewall, apf iptables rules,ddos deflate, and nginx with sphinx, memcached , mysql optimizations , innodb tables, doesnt help at all.CPU load still goes to 150-200%. The forum is running on a Quad 6600 CPU , with 4GB Ram , CentOS , and basic hardware firewall.The server currently costs 229$/month , cpanel licence 35$/month, without counting paid developers for managing linux,smf forum monthly. If the attack continues , unfortunately this forum will discontinue. I dont have more time to spent. Maxtor ® Currently only greek IPs are allowed to view this forum.

??? not true. You are posting here, but noone pmed me. i also dont make major changes , since forum can run as it is. I only fix problems for now.

karma fixed. removed 2 logs

good job *NeverMore*

guys, i will spent time to read the whole topic and answer it after i return from heraklion. we now have Pix-lax :P

depends on what was the dekarma for. and what is done, cannot be undone. i have my test forum to check when your - karma is given and what for. give me your nickname in pm

please we are going offtopic. if you want unban , there is pm . (again)

maxcheaters can be friend gaming based forum. it all depends on moderators and members. activity and responsibility are estimated by others.

the best way is to split responsibilities. what i mean? some people for marketplace, some for spam section, some for making events/giving awards. only with this way i can handle it. alone i cant do much .

the problem for us now is MXC. not merging. im here to make some changes in a better way. a good start was to add edit privs at legendaries.

i still keep a good relation with ventic and ed. the point is that they decided to make their own ways. i dont think they want to come back. they have their own community.

i dont think they will agree on that. everything begins from the members. they have the power to decide.

talk about what?

can you find a relative smf mod for that?

im suprized that i see unqART,MasterDisaster,BloodyWarrior, Chucky , nikoloudos and some others trying to help mxc. thanks for your interest , really.

the problem begins from Paysafecards , and then paypal. pscs dont have chargebacks, and paypal sometimes doesnt give money back. the middleman is someone who can accept paypal and pscs, and can handle low/mid xx$ ammount of money. all the rest are "at your own risk"

agree! agree again!

its just an idea.

its about traffic. forum is on a dedicated machine with quad core and 8gb ram. i have no errors.
