Could be a synchronized attack on both forums and steam. Just it took a bit of time for cloudflares anti ddos to kick in for the forum. Just a guess.

I'm sure it's not impossible..... But much more likely a problem with isp

My Build: i7-4790K, 212 Evo, Asus Maximus VI Extreme, Crucial Ballistix Sport 16GB DDR3-1600, Intel 730 240GB SSD, WD Blue 1TB, EVGA GTX 980Ti ACX 2.0, NZXT H440 Blue/Black, EVGA 650W 80+Gold.

Most of the time, it's not the computer, it's the person using it.

Most probably isp, but that don't explain why they both went offline at the same time.

Well there was 10k people watching the stream and as soon as he posted a link to his webpage which is is own server it probably would have crashed with that much traffic. This might have caused his custom internet setup to crash also. But after all its just a theory, a tech theory, Thanks for reading

Does anyone know where the Forum Servers are hosted?

Self Hosted?

Dedicated Server?

AWS?

Well that a bit boring, I just went to the hassle of Resolving their CloudFlare protected domain to find their true domain name, to try and see were it's hosted

Ok without disclosing to much about their online setup

I am pretty sure that the forums are hosted by secure servers in arizona running through cloudflare to protect this site from DDOS attacks and to hide their ip address. 

Linusmediagroup.com is hosted with squarespace.com which I think used AWS (Amazon Webservices) for web site hosting/servers
