    They're probably afraid that among the thousands of us, at least one person is a DDoS-ing pro that'll really fuck them up.

    Haha. I can tell you for sure that there many here who know how to ddos.
    My buddies and I used to make botnets to ddos on game servers back in the day while playing csgo, call of duty, and other games.

    I'd agree with that if it was in any way helpful. All day people have been giving their opinions about QI. Let them burn on their own actions. Anything illegal doesn't do any good for anybody else but them. They've done enough damage to themselves reputation as well as legal wise. DDoS's don't help anyone in the real world. They only make children feel better.

    You know I'm pretty sure the higher ups have a very thick and swollen face from all the slapping they get from us and probably our chinese counterparts too.

    Predicted they would get DDOS'ed yesterday just after reading their post, now they will have to pay more for better servers and DDOS protection. more $$$ trickling out Qidian, didn't you want to make money rather than spend more ? lol
    Hey @Qidian was it worth it for 20 measly novels ?

    nice, though in my opinion no the best idea...

    i assume the only reason qidian was playing nice and calmly taking over everything novel by novel, extending it's greedy little paws further and further, is to avoid such a reaction, and not chase away fan-translators, whose translations they could acquire for a pittance using both threats and a payday, y'know, carrot and the stick and all...

    but now that someone retaliated, they will probably either back off for a while, act like nothing happened, or, in the worst case, go full blown hostile takeover...

    Should I kneel until you make me your disciple ?

    Anyway, don't you need more futurdeadmeat for the war against Qidian ?

    All that hate. I support wuxiaworld more than webnovel with the information that has/could be given at the moment, but in the end I just want to relax and have a pleasant experience reading my novels. That said either site going down isn't a good thing >.> Ofcourse you could argue that qidian might change their mind about their actions and change some things if it even is a ddos, however from previous experience it should be obvious they will stick their head in the sand and just do what they feel like and fight the rest out in court. That said... this is just harming the casual reader and not effective... therefore celebrating that its down is just stupid. If anything they might end up playing the victim.

    Ofcourse it could also be a simple maintenance or some kind of server trouble.
