Server Outtage

Sunday, just as I was about to embark on a journey in my trusty Bustard to our wormhole’s HiSec entrance, I was hit by a Socket Closed error. I have had those more regularly lately, but this time it was a server wide crash.

As it turned out later CCP’s servers were under a DDOS attack. The monday after, the servers returned.

CCP details DDOS attacks

Massively had two articles (at least) : No threat to customers and the initial news article.

And of course the official post by CCP_Spielmann.
