In the IRC logs someone admits its a DDoS attack:

The motivation is unclear

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

Yep, and you all fell for it hook line and sinker. Look how you repeat it here as if it were the truth while a site admin comes in saying 'botched DNS transfer.'

Shame on you clueless drama-mongers. I thought you'd be smarter, but apparently thinking that was a mistake.

And it was 400TB. Not 40. 40TB isn't even enough for my video chat software and the amount of servers I can set up and run, with 200 concurrent video users in them, each pushing 30 FPS (assuming their cams have enough lighting and their computers can handle 30 FPS.) Near-instant DDoS mitigation guarantees require a ton of bandwidth, even in the cloud.

Drama-mongers? Have you read your IRC logs? Didn't you get banned due to drama and trolling after repeated warnings? You could be unbanned if you could just chill out instead of shilling out. That is seeming less likely by the day thoug.
