Did this server die?

Server update inbound! Wiping today.

Server was restarted this morning with minor changes to take effect guys. Check the announcement for more information.

Server Is back up everyone! Come on in! Lets get this going and get it populated again!

Been down for 24h now =/

Excite: To rebuttal to your comment... It actually is affecting more than just one customer currently. See here:

"As Rust does not currently support dedicated IP addresses, all servers on a node share the same IP address. DNS amplification attacks target the main IP and not specific ports, so there is no way to determine which service was the attacker's target. All services on the node therefor receive the attack.
We are currently working on a way to have dedicated IP addresses in Rust. We have no ETA on when this will be available, but hope to have it out soon."

As someone that worked in a large data center provider, I can say this is normal business practices.

There are at the very least 23 other servers sitting on the same switch your server is on, if not more if this is a virtual server with many more VPSs on the same machine.

They could instantly remove the null route, yet 23 other customers or more would be affected. It is a numbers game. They can piss you off or piss off 23 others. Money wise which do you think is more important? One or 23? This also could affect countless other routers and customers.

This was my job to do this at my previous company and I assure you their SLA, TOS etc include this as an option that you agreed to, or your provider/host agreed to.

It sucks, but their point of view, it is the least intrusive to the most customers.

IT SEEMS I HAVE DISHNOR MY FAMIRY, :'(

Server is still down guys. I've not gotten a response on the support ticket for approx 3 hours now. They are aware that this is terrible business practice, and I will be hoping for some form of compensation for having to deal with them not having proper DDoS protection. This is absolutely absurd that my players are unable to play and my services with agreement are not being fulfilled properly. We're working as hard as we can to alleviate this issue, while I believe the GSP is just sitting back sipping pina colada's while saying "well lets just leave it offline for a while." My apologies for the inconvenience guys. Hopefully the situation is rectified within the next hour or two, as doubtful as it seems right now.

nuggets i believe

Durr harro. This is teh drunk nuggets... aNtiPatt3rN is now asleep, I will be attempting to get the server up! If my attempts are to fail please do not hate me :'(

There seems to be an issue going on right now. I'm left in the dark as to if it's something to do with the datacenter or the actual server. Support ticket has been opened and I'm awaiting a reply.

Was gonna post the same Mac

Server is down, so far down for 5 minutes. 12:25PM PST

Server stability has been addressed. It looks as though things are running smooth now and no further issues have arisen. Come on in and join guys!

Rust++ has been re-installed. Doorsharing active, and door-codes are in working order now with Rust++. Admins have been changed. Ban-list has been updated to reflect a few choice individuals who felt racial epithets were worth dropping in the server. Please refrain from using racial comments in the server guys. One warning, then a ban. End of story.

Door sharing has been re-enabled via Oxide DoorShare plugin. New updates are coming up soon.

yea bring door sharing back...:/
