    PSN & Xbox Live taken down by Lizardsquad

    For reasons unknown (probably for the lolz), Lizard squad has been DDOSing PSN & XBL for about 6 hours now.

    http://www.craveonline.com/gaming/ar...d-attacks-ddos

    I could 'get it' if it was to bring kids off the game systems and spend time with mom and dad, but this just seems to be done to piss people off.

    I will never get why script kiddies do what they do.

    Good reason. I just forum searched lizard squad, saw a thread back on 12/7, so i didn't connect any dots.

    Can't these guys take down something that would benefit people, like the companies that record credit scores etc.

    "Gamer" is not a bad word. I identify as a gamer. When calling out those who persecute and harass, the word you're looking for is "asshole." @_DonAdams
    When you see someone in a thread making the same canned responses over and over, click their name, click view forum posts, and see if they are a troll. Then don't feed them.

    DDOS is such a cheap way to take something down. There's nothing creative about it.
