Recently I've had a user launching attacks on my servers, we are on a 1000mbit
line, and the attack is using up approximatly 15% (~150megabit/sec). However it
seems to be enough to flood out the srcds process and deny service even though
we have more then enough resources to continue processing
Sounds like a possible (but less severe in this instance) devnull attack to
me. There was a stink about this not too long ago. In fact, it's capable of
doing attacks so severe that it caused a GMod server admin to get a $15K
bill. The thread about it on Facepunch appears to have been deleted,
I'm aware of devnull, and it is, we're getting popped everyday by nothing but
inbound cod4 ports. I have an ACL ticket awaiting the data-center today, but
we've had botnets hit the server multiple times, and srcds still gets dropped
without saturating the uplink.

They dont even care bout VAC anymore, for that takes couple weeks, couple weeks
they can cheat around, and then take a new one.
And I think its more appropriate to fork the topic with its own thread about
DDOS attacks etc.
Sorry to chime in late, and if this has already been brought up, I
apologize...
But is there anyway Valve could implement a minimum time between name
changes? I could care less about the hackers and what not, but it's kind
of a pain in the butt when you're trying to ban someone quickly in server
Remember that sourcemod, besides stuff like @red and @blue, also has
@aim, so you can spectate someone who changes name non-stop, and then
use sm_ban @aim to ban the person you are spectating

One of our server admins wrote a sm plugin that counts name changes per player
over a short period of time. If they exceed a threshold, they're kicked
automatically.
Also, sourcemod's sm_who is very helpful for determining who to kick/ban, as it
will give you a unique number per player, rather
Is that plugin made available to other server admins, Tom? I'd love to

If you type status in the console (client or server) it will list their
name + steam ID. Steam ID allows you to (theoretically) ban them across all
steamworks titles.

Due to some technical complications, this was delayed.
It is now released.

Valve already has a limit but it's not very aggressive. Perhaps they
can bypass it, or it's the only reason they're not changing their name
every tick.

You can already enable sounds when you've damaged players, and 'sticky'
outgoing damage numbers to the HUD. I'd imagine it's something along those
lines, except for people with hearing problems.

I love how cheat programmers keep using the the 'debug' Draw box for
wallhacks.
Places where I've seen the debug drawbox:
* used for rendering area portals in-game with sv_cheats 1
Places where I've seen using the debug drawbox as cheats:
* too many to count
