Personally, get a host that offers DDOS protection! Then again, if you anger the wrong people no amount of protection can help you. Take anonymous and their Sony takedown. If corporate level DDOS protection can't save you, well... glhf.

Well, you can buy servers from host that has DDoS protection.
We offer servers that has DDoS protection just for $7 = 3GB server if you might be interested.

Look at the offender's IP, do a simple whois, make sure it is not a proxy they joined from.
Then simply contact the ISP to tell them their customer is engaging in illegal activity.
In some countries, such as the Netherlands, a simple DoS attack can lead to 1 year prison sentence.

For someone who doesn't know what Dosing is or Ddosing, Its not hacking and its not really dangerous. Basically what it does it uses a CPU to ping someones IP address from their router and basically slows their internet down to a certain speed that they don't have internet for a certain time... And It's not really possible to stop it from happening to a person beside buying proxies or getting a new router, VPN's ect. (good VPN is http://www.privatetunnel.com) And for servers Ddos protection is ALOT of money. Hope this helped!

We're not supposed to give away this kind of info but pretty much. Its just noobs who think they can hack so they just download a Ddosing file and run it to your server. What it pretty much does is it makes the lag traffic so heavy on your server that it basically crashes (I'm not sure if its exactly this, but its something like that)

Btw, If you have a strong enough firewall (and really good anti-virus programs) you might be able to reflect the Ddos and reroute it back to him

As soon as anyone threatens you, ban the account and then instantly ban their ip, because when you do this it means they cant access the server at all through any account or any computer in their network.

Once on the server I played in we got someone DDos'ing us for about 2 hours (he was using weepcraft) -_- We already knew the person, he raged real bad, he was also working with an admin in the server (noone really liked him). They kept trying and trying to lag crash us but failed XD The owner forgot the admin had access to the control panel and just shut the server down but there were Admins online and kept it back up :3

ddos= distributed denial of service
It's where people spam your server until it crashes from lag I think.
It's disgusting people should have to invest in ddos protection. It's even more sad there's a community. Good luck buddy!

Okay basicly it's like pinging a server over and over again really fast for an hour or so sending packets at the server. When multiple people do it the server can't send the packets back in time causing it to crash.

A DDoS is a Distributed Denial of Service.
I have been DDoS'd Before... my firewall sent the DDoS back to him... Whoops

Plus, DDoSing is illegal. Just report him to your police or something.

Are you stupid? You can't send a DDoS back to someone with a firewall and even if you tell the police they won't do anything. DDoS is using multiple computers to send packets so that means multiple IP's. What the hell do you think the police are going to do to someone DDoS'ing a Minecraft server? That's right... Nothing.

Your best bet is to just wait it out or contact your hosting company if you have one about it or if you have the money buy DDoS protection.

Kinda like hacking,but for the noobs of the hacking.
DDoS is like hacking a server basicly,and shutting it down.
But if the DDoS works and it lasts for a while,thats a real freaking hacker.

Corrections Ddosing is not hacking AT ALL. I REAPEAT DDOSING IS NOT HACKING! Its just using a computer to ping someones IP address and send a poop ton of packets to their router (or the host/server whatever it is) and shutting it down.

DDOSING NOR DOS IS NOT HACKING AT ALL GUYS!

There isnt a way to stop a ddos you can get your ip blacklisted from the ddos company but that will cost money the other thing you can do is block your router from receiving packets from the ip which is ddosing you.

It rather fails or succeeds.

If there ddosing your server which is hosted by a company get there ip and send it to them then they can take the matter to court because its a illegal offence.

dude
never ever ever give password, op admin or anything to anyone at anytime for anyreason. just take the ddos like a man (or woman)

also, time the ddos. is it only like 5 minutes? use the task manager (cntl-alt-del) to watch network traffic to see

why does this matter? it means that he is using some kind of site to ddos you that he pays for, and isnt a real hacker just a piece of shit whore

now if the ddos physically lasts for like half an hour or some shit, it means you have a real hacker on your hands.

ps: did you know that every player who comes on your server logs an ip on your log file.............

You don't need to do /ip in the console you can do it in-game aswell.

There are ways to avoid Ddos attacks but the best is to try and avoid people who do this sort of thing.

You could get a vpn or some sort of first line of defence that stops the ddos'ers before they reach your connection. I am not sure besides them.

Yes, it's possible. Since my server kept going down from DoS'ers, I ended up buying proxy protection. Great investment in my opinion

I got the Proxy Protection at PickleHosting
