Is Classic unavailable at the moment? I was busy farming mats on BfA to sell on the auction house so I could pay my Classic sub with BfA gold. Then I got disconnected.

It seems that there is a massive DDoS attack on Blizzard servers right now. Most of their services are offline and their games. Including classic wow

Yeah its a incel / European (not UK) hacker group. They are DDOSing the servers at the moment cause they want to. I think they definitely are just doing this for kicks with the streamers/internet ego since they would have done this day 1 if they were actually targeting streamers.

Looks like I picked a good couple of days to go on vacation.

I wonder how many smart refrigerators and smart televisions and smart toasters are part of this botnet :lol:

Seeing "character not found" is mildly unsettling, even though it's just connectivity issues.

Seems like it still going on. Unfortunate.
DDoS attacks can't go on forever. It'll run out of steam soon enough.

A media source said some fiber cables were cut affecting FIFA, Madden, WoW and multiple other game server. But some low-grade no name hacker is trying to take responsibility for a fake DDoS.
