Why do people even take the time to do DDoS attacks? It's so dumb and pointless, and most the time it's for something stupid or no reason at all. For example: That one guy who raged about getting his nexus account banned or whatever and decided it'd be funny to start a DDoS attack on nexus. Not like that DDoS attack did anything at all (lol @fail "hax0r" or just stupid script kiddie), but regardless of that, he was banned from a site, and then did something to the site he was banned from just to end up getting in even more trouble. Sometimes though, DDoS attacks are utterly pointless, they don't even have a meaning, they're just stupid little "pranks" constructed by no-life basement dwellers.
