The U.S.G.N. is offline for maintenance at the moment. This means the in-game version check, login and server list does not work. You can still play without login and with the cached server list.
Sorry for the inconvenience. I will try to bring it back ASAP.
Hey @ DC: your VPS or dedicated server has DDos protection?
This issue is security related than a DoS related one. By the way, DC already said that he won't pay X servers or other services like DoS protection (just a reminder note).
@ ead: A real DDoS protection is not affordable for me. Also it's a totally unrelated topic.
@ Mami Tomoe: It's because the U.S.G.N. is offline and didn't revert your state. It will fix itself automatically in a while. At latest after playing again when the U.S.G.N. is on.
@ Mami Tomoe: Yes, good news. I was able to fix a rather serious security hole. Your system is probably not in danger. It was a security problem in the U.S.G.N. itself.
Your data is and was safe though. No passwords or any other data fell in wrong hands and the system is now more secure.
Actually Gaios provided me with data so I was able to solve the issues. This is why I unbanned him. He didn't do as much damage as he could have done and he told me what he did and how. I'm thankful for his support.
No, he doesn't work for me. He just did the right thing. Instead of continuing hacking he told me about the weakness so I was able to fix it. I appreciated that so I decided to give him another chance.
Aight kids if you ever get banned because of creating cs2d hacks and spamming the forum with stupid bullshit just find a security leak and report it to DC, you'll be fine.
