It's been the case for a while now that people jealous at others' server rankings have started to denial-of-service attack others' servers as a means of getting to the top. This is not a new phenomenon; back when I hosted Plasma Netbattle with Gigawolf 2-3 years ago, we experienced similar attacks. However, in recent times, this has escalated to inappropriate heights. One server in particular, Stadium Brasil, has, from what I have been shown, deliberately tried to take down every other server and even the registry itself in a desperate bid to get to the top of the registry. Neither myself nor any of the other staff members have the time or the patience to be Netbattle's police force. However, unlike previous registry owners, we will not stand by and watch these types of attacks tear our game apart. Netbattle was built for battling, and I realize that some of you get your kicks out of watching other servers go to zero users, but from this point on, you will have to take that elsewhere. Anyone caught DoS Attacking the registry from now on will be banned for an indefinite period of time. Also, if it is shown that one person is responsible for crashing multiple servers, that person will get the same treatment. We don't have the time to settle your personal vendettas against each other, but when this spills over into unrelated servers, it's our job to cut you off from Netbattle. Stadium Brasil is now banned indefinitely from Netbattle. If the attacks continue, one option we are considering is a ban of the entire Brazil IP Range. We would rather it not come to this, but if a few of you are so bent on runing the game for the rest of Brazil, we will have no choice. Also, any server affiliated with Stadium Brasil or the following blacklisted people will get a temporary ban. Also, please don't try to evade your bans as this will only get them prolonged. Blacklisted Players: Bahamut Nickelback BrokenButterfly DarkWolf In addition, a list of IPs affiliated with known bot attacks has been firewalled. Also, the players Kioku and Steve are temporarily banned for one week as they continue to use Netbattle as a private venue to solve their differences. If you are one of the banned players and have a legitimate claim to dispute, please let me know over PM. Thank you and try to keep Netbattle as it was intended - an competitive online Pokemon game, not an internet hacking wargame. |

Well, fuck me sideways. Also, you're missing a major person in that list that you MIGHT want to take care of: Tom Jane. He has helped the brasilans DoS servers. I will provide logs when I get them. |

In for the funny shit.

*claps* And yes, banning brazil should be the last resort (as any ranged ip ban), because of the huge amount of players, noobs or not, it brings. And on a personal level, I, being Portuguese, have tons of fun working as a makeshift translator. I tell you, you don't know wha you're losing by being fluent in both languages xD |

I think mine and Kioku's ban is fair. Not going to disagree with your decision. Thing is, not that I'm trying to bypass or anything... but I have a dynamic I.P address which can easily be changed. I think Bahamut does too. It automatically changes every so often without me touching anything. Also, regbanning every single Brazilian is a bad idea, it will cause a huge shitstorm and it will be like killing off the majority of NetBattle. |

Cooler than you

http://starfox64.baldninja.com/wav/andross-dead.wav Similarly, I don't see the point. Steve DOS attacks me and I get banned. Huh. If this was about the argument cluttering the topic, I agree. |

See, now you're just trying to cause an argument on the forum again. Firstly, I attacked your server for no more than 20 seconds to prove a point. You signed on a server and claimed I was already attacking you at "3 connections per minute". So then I really did DoS you to prove that it wasn't me. I fucking hate being blamed wrongly, and it has happened a lot recently. Oh, and you were the one that started the whole shitstorm of getting rid of PMNB. After PMNB was gone, everyone wanted to take top place and started DoSing. If you want to continue this, take it to PM or MSN and stop bringing it up here. I see arguing in topics as braking a rule, but I feel the need to reply when someone is arguing with me. EDIT: I don't see why you feel the need to ban my server host, my I.P is 92.0.120.178. |

Registry's down. EDIT: yes, I attacked Stadium Brasil twice back during the beginning when you people attacked me. Suck it up. I stopped attacking shortly after when I realized it was going to be 'I CAN CRASH YOU, YOU CAN CRASH ME'. Stadium Brasil on the other hand took the conflict outside PIL, as you always do. Just throwing that out. I'm done. EDIT2: I'm not innocent, I know. The thing is, I tried to keep it within personal matters. EDIT3: Reg's back up. Edited by Lumine, Jul 25 2009, 06:00 PM.

lol What now? why the regban? i rly dont understand. It was started by "English" comunity and not the brs. I'm not br and not American or someshit and im not protecting anyone, so I just want JUSTICE. That shitSTORM started when Mariks returned to nb with DarkWolf. First- DW love bot the servers. Helped marik to bot and down "PMNB Stadium"(Union of Stadium BR and PMNB). Since Steve's old friends decided to attack his server, Bahamut and anothers users approved the union of the servers. And NOW PIL users, like "Lil-P", "Kioku", "Lumine" and others started the DoS attack on brazilians server just because they allowed steve and his friends there. After it the brs countered the DoS attack. I was hosting Stadium Brasil for Bahamut and i got crashed every night like 5/6 times. After it Lil-P and Cia was telling some brs "Your guys will be regbanned for DoSing the servers". And now i'm confuse. WHY the BRS will be regbanned? Lil-P and his friends Crashed Stadium Brasil a lot too and just the Brs will be regbanned? Please Bayleef you need talk with all peoples involved and after do your actions. Everyone on this topic tried to bot servers. EVERYONE. You have to add more users to your black list. there is +8/10 Botters About the attack in the reg, i dont know nothing. i rly want know everything about it. If the brs tried to bot the reg, i can talk with them to stop it. I dont have 100% of the brs control, but im popular there and i can talk with 80% i think. And regbanning some users, i agree with Steve. It will made a big ShitStorm. If the brs get regban, The Server "Pokemon Stats" will be regbanned too. Brazilians and Latinos range is the same shit. Starts with "187", "189", "190", "200", "201" and you probably will lose 50% or more of the users in NetBattle. I dont will do nothing to unban myself, so i just want to see how netbattle will be in future. I exit the game some time, I'm back only for a few days helping my good friend Bahamut OBS: I'm not protecting anyone. i just want Justice. Every war, when finish, the brs get regban. Just because they dont speak english and cant protect his asses For people who do not know me, I'm Nickelback, and Im "Italian" and why that "Broth3r" still talking shit about the brs? he dont know nothing. he just hate the brazilians, because Brasil > Portugal in SOCCER, and here isnt SOCCER. Everyone here please grow up and be a man to talk about their attitudes, it took courage to attack the servers, you must have courage to take on too. Good look ^_~ |
