Stopping or Minimizing DDOS Attacks

[hypherion]

Hi guys

I know DDOS attacks are a huge problem for all players, but why don't we consider using third party DDOS protectection or moving to a host like OVH (which I use for my Minecraft and OpenTTD servers) which has built in DDOS protection for game servers.

I know it's a huge job to move a server, but something has to be done

Server is on OVH.

Server might been on OVH but host is real crap, it lags even when its not DDOS and all that, just consider using some better host

Wait whaat? So didn't they enable the protection?
