I have always been curious as to how people let themselves get DDOS'd? How does the opposing team magically obtain your IP? And even after you've diagnosed your high latency or disconnects with the fact that you're being DDOS'd (or if you're paranoid)... Why not just change your IP?
If you were in a skype conversation with them at any time (like people getting randomly added to my calls by arena partners or w/e and me getting DDoSed) or you are streaming your IP is given upon login because you are still connected with them.

You can't stop yourself from being DDoSed unless you are using a mumble server that you own or something like OovoO or a neutral ventrilo server (vent lags though and is shit for pvp)

So if you change your IP and they are still somehow in a conversation you are currently in (you will still be in the conversation when you log back in, so you have to immediately leave conversation and re-log with a new IP).

My solution to it is just purchase a socks 5 proxy from NYC for 5$ a month and use that for skype only so it doesn't effect my actual internet.

@ turning into a flaming ball of death: I was mostly just being a dick and not trying to incite more hate towards him because it's already known hes a scumbag lol.
