In the IRC logs someone admits its a DDoS attack:

The motivation is unclear

Wasn't there someone like yesterday promising ~40TB of DOS?

Ignore this. Was in the logs, search for "40TB".

Meh, he's a serial tall-tale teller so I'm not sure that proves anything.

Doesn't prove anything, but starts off with a racial epithet. The proceeds to threaten a driving up the hosting cost. Might have done nothing but I'm sticking with ass.

Stick with ass, because I did that to expose you drama-mongering fools, and you took every last bit of it and ate it, then asked for more.

As you see by the uninformed assholes in this entire thread talking about a DDoS from me when one of the site operators comes in saying it was a botched DNS transfer.

It's far too easy to expose the ignorant and easily-led, which is why I did it, to show that a huge chunk of the SN crowd is not very bright. Looks like part of the pipedot community is working the same way, too, as evidenced by the comments in this story thread.

Hook, line, and sinker.

I thought you'd all be smarter than this.
