Accidentally DDOSing the Server - tomi - 06-27-2023
Every time I post the Old Country advertisement I cause myself and random people in the server to crash.
Everyone sees the same type of crash where their game and computer pretty much freezes and stutters.
This only happens when I post the OC advertisement, others can post it fine with no issues.
I have caused several to crash twice today from attempting to post this advertisement:
Old Country Restaurant || *Looking for an Authentic Italian dining experience?* Come on down to the old country! Located at the newly renovated double warehouse#2 near the bank and motel. || Old Country is now hiring servers and security starting at $20,000 an hour! For a Limited Time earn an Exclusive Car the beautiful Potomac Indian with full time employment ~Ｏｌｄ Ｃｏｕｎｔｒｙ，ａ ｐｌａｃｅ ｔｈａｔ ｆｅｅｌｓ ｌｉｋｅ ｈｏｍｅ~

I've never experienced any crashing and I see this advert a lot. Do you have any screenshots of the error that people are presented with?
As well as this, it isn't a DDOS. DDOS is a deliberate method of network attack caused by overwhelming the target.

From my experience I'm the only one who can do it for some reason. It only happens when I try to advertise for Old Country.

Also, there's no error. My game freezes and it stutters, and everyone I talked to says their game does too, and they have to force close their game. I have to personally sign out of my computer and get everything to close because I can't ALT TAB or anything.
Let me know if there is any additional info you need!
EDIT: Talking to more people and they all experience the same thing: game freezes, their computer is completely froze, and they have to force restart. half the server experiences this when I post the OC advert lol
