Report him to the ISP and the BYOND staff, perferably.

The BYOND staff can't really do anything about it.
Assuming it is a DOS attack and not a flaw in the game: You can try contacting your ISP to see if they can filter out his/her attacks before they reach your connection. However, most residential providers probably won't be able/willing to do that. If the attacks are coming from a single address, you can also try contacting the attacker's ISP to see if they'll do something about it. In either case, make sure to have the log of the attack(s) handy with timestamps and IPs. | |
Also, make sure you host on version 498. This has some built-in protection against related attacks.

I miss the days of big attacks consisting of line break spam. Now every nerd raging teen out there in the BYOND's is a script kiddie.

Hmmm those attacks have been increasing recently... O.O

Happened a lot during early V47 of Dragonball Zeta (a later version of Zeta). It eventually calmed down of course until Zeta stop getting hosted (which was years before the Funimation incident). | |
