    Well at least the will see there are some consequences if they mess with the wrong people. I will not say this is the right way but at least they can't ignore it. Because they think they can do anything otherwise they want I don't suffer any consequences at least this time they're going to feel some of the wrath they have seeded.

    Hopefully it will be a message to them but I highly doubt that. You can't talk to them, you can't reason with them, so the only way you can do something it's to make them feel something through suffering.

    It may be a primitive way but simplicity can always reap some good results no matter if it's legal or illegal. Sometimes the results are what matters.

    that might temporarily annoy Qidian until they get better servers .

    And I think it might make it worse for wuxiaworlds battle in court .

    Ahh yes, the ol' ends justify the means argument. Good for you. Let me ask you one thing though, if someone didn't like you and hit you over the head with a pipe, would be hat be okay today? Your gone, not their issue anymore. That's cool?

    I hope its a DMCA for hosting ren's 20 fan translation without permission.

    Edit: after alll ren has proof QI was talking out their ass when they said they could host so maybe he gave copies of that proof and now gov't is DMCA on them.

    true, but if, and if, they are of the mentality of "we gave them a chance and this is how they pay us back?"
    then they won't think consequences, and only see this as a good opportunity to advance their agenda with a good excuse.

    They didn't have an excuse to steal all the translations from WW. I doubt they need any excuse to do any nefarious actions.

    It's still illegal and wrong to DDoS the, though.

    Well i did say that it issnt the right way..

    it always depens on the case and the circumstances that surrounds the case.

    the cyber world and real world do not always follow the same principles. Sometimes people need something like wake up call I would say. That can be did they hit a wall or something like that because of a decision they made, sometimes you guys hit by someone because of something, and you're learning from it.

    Technically it's not really legal because you're inflicting damage to someone. No matter how heavy the damage is it may be light or it may be heavy. But these are always examples out of the daily live.
    It happens on the school grounds, in university or at the workplace. There are many facets to it, so sometimes it is out of bounds of what people can tolerate, that's right. But I don't feel really guilty in this case. They got what they deserved.

    In the cyber world do you have other methods like this one. It's a maybe a little extreme but it is the only way you can show them a more collective resentment.

    plenty of powerful infrastructures can be DDsSed
    Also never underestimate the power of a community of nerds. We read web novels for fun, lol. That's as big a "NERD" billboard as you can get :p

    However much I don't like Qidian, DDoSing is the equivalent of digital violence, and :/ there's a saying about violence and solutions.

    Think we are lacking information. WW currently has a contract and will be in a better position depending on how QQ takes it from here.
    https://www.quora.com/Intellectual-...nslate-a-book-and-post-the-translation-online

    Dos attacks and hacking into QQ makes me personally mistrust this whole crack pot of sh"t. This keeps up much longer then I will be packing my bags and getting out of dodge. Not worth it when so few novels get finished translations and the people you believe would fix it all turn out to be bandits.

    This is pretty much a hobby for 99% of the community that want to kick back and read something new or crazy, so when your hobby is no longer fun you look for something new or quit. No one looking at the bigger implication here?

    I'm just curious: who did you think could actually solve this issue?
    I have my own thoughts but I'm legitimately curious to hear yours.

    Though I do believe that it would be helpful to note that neither Qidian nor Wuxiaworld are based in the U.S. (China and Hong Kong, respectively)

    Sorry, but you didn't say that. What you said was,"I will not say this is the right way but at least they can't ignore it. Because they think they can do anything otherwise they want Idon't suffer
    Yeah, you didn't say that. You said, "I will not say this is the right way but at least they can't ignore it." At no point did you say this was wrong. I said it's wrong. QI is a sh*t company for their tactics with WW and others, but I don't support illegal activities against them to prove a point. I believe RWX and NU also would also like to see a legal resolution, not to see children play with a computer illegally.
