Haha.. sounds fun

Yeha seems still fucking down...

Still down. Hope it gets back up in a while.

Does anyone know what the problem is?
Is our OP working on it?

If it turns out that this was the 'Terminal,' skid from HF, he's not going to have one miserable time.

What happend last night? I dont know the full story
I would gladly help you gurhush!

Oh this is Terminal?
I saw this guy this morning on HF. He seems to want to fake UH with his forum UnixCake where he's the only member!
Let's fuck this guy!

Ehm..
Look where beastie went :P

It was down the whole day, is it really related to network congestion?
And why isn't this thread in the UH news section?

I doubt that terminal is responsible...
He couldn't even secure his own IRC channel, how's he gonna know how to shut down #unixhub?
He may have enlisted some help though.

I haven't scanned the server(s) for UH, so I'm unsure of whether the IRC server is on the same box as this forum, but if so, then there's some other technical issue which has been affecting the IRC channel - this forum has been unaffected.

My intuition tells me that one of the newcomers to the IRC channel may be the responsible party - if the outage is of external origin.

So our night talk about *nix beard and HF skids is canceled :`(

I don't know if jjumbii is working on it yet.

We need to figure out if this was because of a DDoS or is simple downtime. If it is a DDoS, it is most likely a newcomer to the IRC, some skid on HF (since all of the old members pasted the IRC info all over skidforums), Terminal getting butthurt and getting his knowledgeable friends to help him, or Terminal paying for some skid tools and doing it himself. I doubt it is the Terminal skid, and if it is, likely it was a primitive and non-coordinated attack. He's honestly near the bottom of my list of suspects for being directly behind this. The only plausible scenario I can envision is that - again - he got mad and asked someone to screw with our channel for him. But I doubt it.

Do we even have confirmation that it's a DDoS? It could be something as simple as power outage.

Kinda sad the IRC is down, I recently got my internet back and was hoping to jump on and chat with everyone.

ki113d ?? Where were you ? We all missed you ;_;

Oh fuck yeah! ki113d omg! Where have you been dude?

Ofc we missed you :D

I had to move to a new apartment, but the ISP, 1und1, fail and it took weeks to get a connection :(

Shiiiiiit!

How did you work then?

Fuck off, irc still down...

I didn't :(
I've just been attending a German course this entire time, boring as shit.

OMAGAD. Poor guy :(

Oh yeah boring as fuck... But no work for how many weeks? 5-6 weeks or more no?

Four weeks, it was painful. Now I can get back to coding, if I can ever stop drinking :S

Oh yeah man! Let's go back to code!

Oh really? It's fine if it's only drink heh.

Yes it's only drink :P
And I am also very glad that I am once again able to program.

Any news on the IRC anyone? And temp that we could use in the meantime?

Ok then that's fine :D
Yeah I know that feeling heh!

Let's create the channel #unixhub @ irc.efnet.org in the meantime.

Cya there.

I think you're onto something there Boss.
Once I have the time I'll try to contribute some of my usefulness xD
