CloudFlare for Habbo Retros - Even more useless? Private 

What? That makes no sense, even Habbo has a proxy over their actual core servers.

For instance, if you're using Phoenix and someone DoS's your Emulator Port, Phx shows all the incoming connections then blocks it and logs it under a file name dos.txt, or something like that.

phoenix DOESNT do this....
 
When I owned my Retro or worked on other retros I found cloudflare to be more of a problem than it should be. Y'all are better off not even using it

My cloudflare works well?

Well usually there will be times that cloudflare wont let anyone on your server. Sometimes 10 minutes sometimes 2 or 3 hours. It gets really annoying. If it works for you fine congratulations lol like 80% of the people using cloudflare get errors and downtime so they know the annoyance of it

HAHAHA. People expect to much of the Phx >_____<"

What about an Proxy "Client" that is based on Java.. Can't that program forward the incomming port 80 connections to somewhere else... I mean if the connection numbers are to high.. Or the packets to high.. But yeh... Still doesn't fix the problem as you attack another port.

Maybe this sounds pathetic but.... Give me your hotel link :)?

-- Btw: This should not been possible... You can't attack an domain... You attack an IP.... Which is cloudflare.. How can they suspect that the freaking attack went to your domain.. This is bullshit... There are more websites running on that same ip..

When you attack the domain.. It will resolve into a cloudflare IP....

Or do they have like 100000000000000000000000 ips for all websites that is running by Cloudflare? Don't think so...
Maybe they do.. But i don't believe that...
 
Seriously, Anti-DDoS from company's isn't really needed, if you have money for that, then you probably have money for a hardware firewall + good software and a nice 1gbps dedicated server in Amsterdam where they have good support when your getting attacked.

I had a botnet attacking me, 45.000 ip's attacking me. My hardware firewall has a great CP, it scanned for attack layers, and blocked all ip's that kept sending the same packet size or huge packets. €400 for the hardware firewall and €25 for software.

This will help you stop most attacks and if that's not enough you just buy a anti ddos proxy for 20$ a month that protects http and ports and these can handle like 15gbps attacks. If you want a nice stable server you need to invest, so stop crying if you have 10$ a month to spend and your getting attacked.

Cloudflare is really awful the last month, not only because of the DDOS problems. There' s also just downtime and above all they' re helping Sulake in the process of shutting down retros. I moved on to alternative services which are also free and much better.

Only thing that Cloudflare does is forwarding the DMCA complaint, LulzSec used Cloudflare and they didn't remove them so they really don't care about retro's

I must hae misunderstood then, but I remember people showing that they had worked together, but they were probably wrong then. I' m still much happier with the alternative services though.
 
Probably won't even dent what some earn.

it definitely wouldn't - before my AdSense was deactivated and when I only had 500-600 online a day, I was making nearly $4000 USD a month after server costs. Myself and the other two owners split it in 3 and each of us was left with over a thousand dollars a month income.
