Someone explain quickly to me what this ddose nonsense is.
ok assume like logging in and posting etc etcputs a load on the server but because not everybody logs in at once the server handles the load no prob
a ddos pretty much sends as many log ins and similar things as possible creating loads on the server constantly until the server is overloaded and crashes
or here ill just use google
A Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack is an attempt to make an online service unavailable by overwhelming it with traffic from multiple sources.
thats why they have the cloudflare thing enabled it takes like 5 secs to connect to jsp so you cant spam like 1k logins instantly
