Hey guys!

We will be taking down the Hypixel Network for emergency maintenance. This maintenance begins now and will last for at least 24 hours. Should we choose to extend this downtime, we will post an update on this news post.

During this time we will be reworking the network to ensure the issues we have been having these last few days don't happen again.

We would like to apologize for the inconvenience the last few days have caused and we hope that our community understands the difficulty of the situation.

The situation is: Our host is currently under large-scale DDOS attacks and they are actively working to resolve the situation. We are assisting them to the best we can, which is why we have to put the server on maintenance during this process.

We have already done many network improvements that have lessened the impact of the attacks that are either directed at us or not, but it has proven not to be enough. Our top priority is to mitigate the impact of these attacks as quickly as possible while working on permanent solutions that will shield us better from future attacks and isolate our network.

The good news is that we have dealt with DDoS attacks for well over 8 years now and we have a great understanding of the situation. Each of these attacks is helping us better understand weak points that need to be improved from our side of things and also for our host. As much as this situation is bad for everyone at this time, it is giving us very good data to further understand and lessen the impacts of future attacks.

In reality, about a year ago, these attacks would have had no impact at all, but some recent changes at our host caused a flaw in our setup. so the host is working with us to resolve the situation. We all know what to do to resolve the situation because we have done it before, but it requires quite a bit of work to get to that place again. We’re hoping 24 hours is enough for this upgrade, but please understand it may take more than that.

To be fair, we haven't been as alert or ready as we should have been as it's been about 2 years since our last DDoS attacks. This is definitely a good opportunity for us to set some improvements in motion and deal with this once and for all.

We made sure any time-based services on the network are taken care of. This means pausing boosters, pausing the SkyBlock Auction House and Bazaar timers, pausing timers on MVP++ and daily rewards, etc. We’re hoping not to forget anything, but if we do, we are always open to a chat on our Help Desk.

Furthermore, when we bring the server back online, we will be turning on Triple Coins and Triple XP for at least a week.

As the situation progresses, we will be posting any updates to our status page. Once we are ready to go live again, we will make an update with more details and share as much as we possibly can with our community.

大家好！

我们将关闭 Hypixel 网络以进行紧急维护。此维护现在开始，将持续至少 24 小时。如果我们选择延长停机时间，我们将在此新闻帖子上发布更新。

在此期间，我们将对网络进行改造，以确保我们最近几天遇到的问题不再发生。

对于过去几天给您带来的不便，我们深表歉意，并希望我们的社区了解情况的困难。

情况是：我们的主机目前受到大规模的DDOS攻击，他们正在积极解决这个问题。我们正在尽我们所能协助他们，这就是为什么我们必须在此过程中对服务器进行维护。

我们已经进行了许多网络改进，以减轻针对我们或不针对我们的攻击的影响，但事实证明这还不够。我们的首要任务是尽快减轻这些攻击的影响，同时制定永久性解决方案，以更好地保护我们免受未来攻击并隔离我们的网络。

好消息是，我们处理 DDoS 攻击已经超过 8 年了，我们对这种情况非常了解。这些攻击中的每一个都在帮助我们更好地了解需要从我们这边和我们的主机方面改进的弱点。尽管目前这种情况对每个人都不利，但它为我们提供了非常好的数据，可以进一步了解和减轻未来攻击的影响。

实际上，大约一年前，这些攻击根本不会产生任何影响，但我们主机最近的一些更改导致我们的设置存在缺陷。所以房东正在和我们一起解决这个问题。我们都知道如何解决这种情况，因为我们以前做过，但要再次到达那个地方需要相当多的工作。我们希望 24 小时足以完成此次升级，但请理解可能需要更多时间。

公平地说，自上次 DDoS 攻击以来大约 2 年，我们并没有像我们应有的那样警觉或准备好。这对我们来说绝对是一个很好的机会来进行一些改进并一劳永逸地解决这个问题。

我们确保网络上的任何基于时间的服务都得到照顾。这意味着暂停助推器、暂停 SkyBlock 拍卖行和 Bazaar 计时器、暂停 MVP++ 和每日奖励的计时器等。我们希望不会忘记任何事情，但如果我们忘记了，我们总是愿意在我们的帮助台上聊天。

此外，当我们让服务器重新上线时，我们将开启 Triple Coins 和 Triple XP 至少一周。

随着情况的发展，我们将在状态页面上发布任何更新。一旦我们准备好再次上线，我们将更新更多细节，并尽可能多地与我们的社区分享。
