> 4chan is down because of DDoS attacks, stemming from a bunch of guys that are angry that moot doesn't want to move #4chan to lulznet.
-Kirtaner (of 420chan).
No real reasons to distrust this information, really. Let's hope it didn't hit 'em too hard. I must say, with the traffic that 4chan get, it must have been one fucking tidal wave of a DDOS.
>>296
Just saw that, myself.
I am glad, but mostly because it will help rid iichan of asshats. I'm not sure I'm going back to 4chan with the rest of the non-/b/ refugees. The first two days or so of waiting out the DDoS here (Tuesday and Wednesday), where a a few of us who were sporadic visitors to iichan anyhow were hanging out, but the masses hadn't found it yet, were pretty good. Then the throngs of uncouth children (either in actual age or merely in terms of mental maturity), showed up and turned the place to shit. Suddenly many of the boards were flooded with stale and/or stupid memes, trolling, namecalling, and off-topic image macros - all the things that are wrong with 4chan (and all the things, mind you, that are supposed to be banned, even on 4chan, outside of /b/). I'm sick and tired of that crap (I'll admit that there was a time when I was guilt of it, too; but I've outgrown it), so maybe I'll just stay here and hope that 4chan will contain it in the future. There's no denying that the traffic on iichan/wakachan/4-ch is lighter than I'd prefer, but the S/N ratio is such that iichan may still come out ahead of 4chan, when the quality of posts is considered.
>>300
I don't care what they do with /b/ as long as it gets back to its purpose of keeping the idiotic shit-posting contained. If it actually did its job, I'd probably be more enthused about the rest of 4chan.
So 'bout what time will you be back up? Its 5pm on the west coast here.
Or are you still being Ddos'd?
i miss /x/
=(
>>303
me too fellow x-file.
I just bought the book communion and wanted to talk about it with some people =/
4 Chan still down....WTF Moot!?!
hmmm maybe it was the hiphop sites that got hacked by 4channers, maybe theyre getting their revenge
>>306
Nigga please, those rude boys wouldn't have the botnet for an attack this big
SHOULD BE UP SOON!
where is my 4chan goodness... i miss my /b/ T_T
I WANT 4CHAN NAO!
I WANT 4CHAN NAO!
It's back up, but Firefox keeps giving me "Network Timeout" errors whenever I try to post something. Same for anyone else?
Please?
When I even try and go to the site I get a page fucking load error.

4chan got new IPs. Dump those in your HOSTS file (replace existing entries if you have them) and you won't have to wait for the DNS to update.
and where do we find the HOSTS file? (I suck with computers)
i want /b/
I just had a wank it was really good
Fucking morons, it's not down at all. This is just Chemo.
How to get back on:
Navigate to your HOSTS file (C:/Windows/System32/drivers/etc) Then open the "hosts" file with notepad/wordpad and add the following:
206.220.140.2 ns1.4chan.org

4chan's down again. The main page loads VERY slowly and lacks stylesheets, feels like DDoS again. Yesterday it was back up, and soon afterwards AT spam filled /b/ once more.
Maybe moot got a bigger pipe when he moved datacenters, but that's hardly a solution to a DDoS.
its intermittent for me. other people are confirming that the DDoS is back on though. looks like its either a smaller attack this time. it was unreachable a minute ago but now is working, albeit slooooow.
could be a prelude to a larger attack.
>>323
meant to say either a smaller attack OR they havent gotten all the botnets up yet
Now I'm almost certain it's not 'pacifico' from raidchan doing it. A bored-attention-whoring-16-year-old simply does not have this kind of capability.
I'm still leaning towards it being 4nontalk/Sysop/Kimmo.
Why so serious?
4 Chan is down again. I've tried several different locations bt still cannot access the site.
Thanks, that worked. Sorry about my dumb tonight!
4chan being down is one thing. but status.4chan is down as well. if i dont get my daily dose of annoying camwhores, cp, newfaggotry, and ancient meme i could die. we need 4chan!!!!111
i miss /b/ ;_;
i /r/ 4chan
I MISS /b/ AS WELL
it was the only place to help me solve my issues
with funny advice
such as bengay on balls
haha
Anonymous is angry, when we find out who did this we're going to bomb the shit out of them.
With the whole fucking internets behind us
Stop it with the fake IPs, the real ones all start with 207
This is lies, it will ruin your computer.
faggot, those are fake, stop bitching here
Editing the hosts file worked beautifully, thanks!
Is editing the hosts file really working, or are people just full of shit?
I'm sure it's safe.
Boy I wish I could trust anonymous.
It sure works... but since it's widely avaiable it's no chemo for the cancer.
how do i browsed 4chan?
i accidentally a 4chonz, is this dangerous?
Its interesting how defendant people have become on imageboards.
lol im a drunk fag. dependent.
When do you all think that we can go bak on 4chan? I miss /b/...
If you are running Vista64, do you still edit in the System32 folder? It gives a "Cannot create the file" error.
How the hell do I save the hosts file as something other than a text file? It wants to be a text file! I want it to be just a file!
Can't get it to work otherwise.
>>353 save your file as "hosts" in the save as... dialog, WITH the quotes.
Oh, the drama.
Well, I'm going to go make some soup.
tits or gtfo
I hope /b/ just leaves /x/ soon, its getting old and annoying. -_-
It was bound to happen. Someone call Xenu...
penis
Yes I agree, penis
godfckindamnit. gimme back my /y/!!!!!!!!
imiss /a/ /b/ /s/ /hc/ /h/ /x/ /rs/ and more
come back nao
even omegle is boring as hell nao
I think it is a bunch of crap if the attack is in any way related to some sort of vendetta or some sort of narrow minded cyber crusade in hopes of cultural purification (by any entity no matter the "influence" that it commands) because first of all, 4chan is not some stupid place where hackers and deuschbags meet up to plan the ruining of peoplez lives by the means of lulz, 4chan is a crossroads of internet culture, whether people like it or not. The boards, though not known for their highly thought provoking topics, represent a microcosm of a new age in technological sharing, an age in which experimentation is required for the defining of a new world ethics that is consistent with modern technology and information sharing. The 4cahn website is not some promoter of criminal activity and does not deserve in the slightest to be attacked by criminal dipshits, the filth of the world.
>>364-367
why do you idiots keep bumping this thread?
WHAT THE FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU those fucking white knight bastards spammed the fuck out of b and now its closed wonder if it will ever be back up?

For great justice
I miss almost all of 4chan. except /b/, but /b/ is the bit-bucket in which we put all the unwated ones. Everytime the bucket leaks or breaks, all boards cry out their anger and frustration.
This thread should be permasaged. Every time 4chan experiences some minor little blackout this thread draws all the morons here. In fact, any thread created solely for 4chan related discussion should probably be dealt with in the same manner.
i miss /hc/
FUCK WHERE IS 4CHANNNN???!!!
i posted here because 4chan is down
I miss /u/
We will it be back up?
M00t where are u?
i fucking miss 4chan.
/b/ =(
what the fuck another DDoS?
/b/needs to be gone. How can we make this happen?
Begin by deleting the bookmark, and vowing never to visit the place again.
>>388
People bookmark /b/? I just go to google and type in /b/ and then click on the first result every time...

The race conflict had nothing at all to do with the Civil War or the South "rising" in the first place. Learn a bit of your southern USA history, lest you look like an ignoramus.
It's one thing when non-Americans, or even northerners, get this wrong, but people go around casually conflating the Confederacy with the ideals of the KKK just irritate me, not merely because it's wrong, but also because it's tremendously dumb.
If you were a slave-owner, you would not beat your workers. That would render them unable to do their work effectively. With very few exceptions by possibly some brain-damaged people, and many more examples of hearsay and conjecture ostensibly invented by radical supporters of black freedom long after the issuing of the Emancipation Proclamation, this was common understanding. (Yes, people on both sides of a controversial issue can be radical, and the concept that blacks should be fully equal with whites didn't enter the mainstream until decades later.)
Next time you want to post a stupidass off-topic comment in some random thread, learn some history about the subject first.
