It was rude.

algol, the problem was not with the login server per se. The accounts that I did not have on Battle.net were not affected. The only accounts affected were the ones I had tied into the same B-net login.

Also, www.worldofwarcraft.com was down but the Armory was still up. So it was only a portion of the Blizzard servers that were hit, which is what made me think of a DOS attack.

Anways, the problem is fixed now.
