Title: IRC - EFnet = FUCKED
Post by: Don Seer on July 11, 2001, 10:56:59 AM

Just so folx know.. EFnet is under major attack
even the efnet homepage looks like its a bit fucked

Quote

On the evening of July 10, a series of denial of service attacks </irchelp/nuke/> began, which have crippled most EFnet servers, including most of the servers which permit users from the United States. Users can expect near total unavailability of all EFnet servers for an indefinite period of time. Don't ask us how to restore ops, or if/when things will be fixed - we don't know either. When we find out more, we'll let you know.

EFNet is Eris Free NETwork

its an IRC (Internet Relay Chat) the biggest one of all.

IRC.. basically a chat system based around rooms - and u can private chat and trade files n stuff

its a little scary/complicated at first.. but its really good for chatting and getting stuff
all major warez (illegal) activity online starts on and IRC network.

EFNet has all the big MP3 groups (RNS/EGO etc)

Thats fucked, that means even if one of these groups get Eastsidaz or new real retail Kurupt (apparently Kurupt is adding more tracks because of how it already got bootlegged), we wont be able to get it because they cant serve it to anyone else,0 except to an ftp which will probably be used for private use & members of a certain group

Thats fucked
