Dark0ne Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 We've been under continued attack from someone in Canada trying to use some XSS attacks on the site, no doubt using a bot net. The servers automatically ban list any IPs used in these attacks, and it's A LOT, about 1,000 different IPs a day. If you're in Candaa, that's probably why.

galdran Posted July 12, 2013 Author Share Posted July 12, 2013 (edited) So, after the attacks stop, will our providers be unbanned? Or more importantly, can someone find this f'er and kill him, kthxbye. I just got dragonborn on the steam sale, went to update all my addons with dragonborn versions and getting all shakey from skyrim withdrawal =) Edited July 12, 2013 by galdran Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bben46 Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 We get these kiddies occasionally. :rolleyes: Usually either some butthurt troll who believes they were 'unfairly' banned for violating a rule that they don't agree with and should therefore be allowed to ignore, or a particularly obnoxious wannabe pirate that just doesn't get it that we cannot allow pirates for legal reasons. They usually give up after a while - hopefully a short while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimboUK Posted July 14, 2013 Share Posted July 14, 2013 Anyone whose IP is banned because their PC is being used by a botnet has far more pressing concerns than downloading mods, they need to run a virus scan as a matter of some urgency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jion7882 Posted July 14, 2013 Share Posted July 14, 2013 (edited) Anyone know why I can not access skyrim nexus? I keep getting 502 gateway error and if I sneak through it is very slow and usually still crashes. I'm in the US.

You do realize it is our ISP that is getting blocked because a the RANGE of IP's is being blocked, and it is one person on the network, or in this case it looks like multiple networks.
