You know any other good ways of putting websites down temporarily like LOIC?
I also know how to grab peoples ip addresses on gaming servers and DOS them.

no doubt
if it's just temporary - it's just about getting at the bandwidth... throwing so much information at a server/farm/etc. that it has nothing to do but choke. which is what LOIC would do... it's sending packets of info and the site is responding to the calls --- and eventually it'll timeout when there is too much to handle
i dont see the reason for doing it to a website anymore, risk vs. reward... even using proxies and shit, it's not worth it imo... hosting environments have gotten better with clusting servers and balance loading and shit.
i can see why doing it to a gamer makes sense (for the dick gamers out there lol) - and they aren't going to try to trace route/etc.... so yea DOS attacks will never go away i suppose lol
