Pastie went offline, needs help of experts to protect against ddos attack

Pastie.org , one of the popular paste website, has been targeted by hackers with two distributed denial of service(DDoS) attack last night.

Following that attack,Rails Machine has decided to no longer host and sponsor the site in order to protect it's network and other customers .

"I really feel bad about this. I'm just a single person running the site free of charge. I make a very minimal amount of monthly income from the ads. Probably just enough to cover hosting now that I don't have a sponsor." Josh Goebel, founder of pastie said in the main site.

"I guess this is just one of the downsides of running a large, popular site, but it's very frustrating. "

Goebel is currently seeking help from someone with expertise in protection against DDOS attacks. If anyone ready to help him, they can contact him.
