RIght, and it wouldn’t make sense for CCP to something else if this happens.  
And I don’t wonder that we are getting so many Attacks right now, i mean a single person can initiate them, so maybe just a copyist.

No, they’d just go out of business and the people committing the DDoS attacks would win and be emboldened. That seems like a bad idea…

You should be extra careful when trying to login during a DDoS attack. Chances are that it is just some frustrated freak, but as others pointed out it could be used to lever other attacks. Check that you are using SSL and that the certificate is fine. Do not accept connection to CCP without the proper SSL certificate! Ever.
