If it's not about money, it's about something as silly as "being the best of some online game that earns me nothing and adds no value to my life or my overall worth to the human race" why put this much effort into it? It's so...sad :p

Could it be possible that CraftLandia is merely a Zombie farm? The guy might want the biggest server so he can increase the size of his DDOS army. He doesn't require players to buy the game right? Maybe this is motivated by his desire to just have as many people download his mod as possible. aka - increase his zombie horde.

Let the conspiracy theory flow... lol

hmm, no email from you here Kainzo. Lol he's trying to say he's innocent while distrubiting pirated software?
Wait! He's trying to use the "I'm innocent of this crime (DDoS'ing) because I was doing preforming this crime (pirating software) at that time." defense......

So basically everyone is trying to cover their rears in fear of a DDOS attack but Craftlandia claims they do nothing of the sort to anyone? My guess is they are threatening anyone with actual information of their actions to remove any evidence of their crimes. Blackmail and bullying tactics. Does not surprise me one bit after all has been said and done on all this. Just my two cents on the issues.

Didn't @Jotamota got the client?
If he send it to anyone who can read through the code?
Couldn't we then find out if the client is there to make his possibly zombie army bigger?

It looks like we have hit a nerve somewhere.
I think that is unfair, when things like this happen people should support each other against it not remove people attempts at rebelling. If curse/MCF was DDOS' they could take it a lot further law wise i would think as they are a major company also i would expect them to have some form of anti-ddos. @Kainzo I think you should speak with the owner of a server named Lord of the Craft they are a major server and rather popular they were victim to a large ddos' attack maybe he could give you some tips. Below is what he was being attacked by and what he managed to do.

Hey #LOTC,
I’m still working to mitigate this huge attack, and would like to share some impressive stats about it:
  • We currently have 234,000 unique IPs attacking our site.
  • We are currently filtering 140,000 of these attacking IP’s.
  • We’re being hit at a speed of about 7.2GB/s
  • We’re filtering about 4GB/s.
  • ~25% of the current traffic is from Japan and the Ukraine.
  • We’ve blacklisted all incoming connections from the Ukraine / Japan.
