Lame DoS is lame (so is vb)

While this isn't quite worthy of the news, we do like to shame wannabe hackers when they attempt to take down our site. Such is the story of basement dwelling vb/vb2/vb.2. I'm guessing he read the news article about our server change, and decided to use a rarely used (and lame) POST DoS attack. We quickly noticed and updated our apache config, so thanks for that vb. Also, I hope he feels skilled since he took soldierx.com down for an entire 3 minutes. Sadly enough, he attacked from the IP 190.48.122.159 - which is tied to his soldierx.com account. You would think as a user of the site, he would have read the old news and masked his IP. Will a real hacker with 0day please stand up?
