# Archiving My Old Projects: A Chapter Ends
> 📌 tl;dr: I'm officially archiving all my "for educational purpose" DDoS/DoS tools on GitHub. These projects helped me learn programming, but Ive outgrown them and no longer want them associated with my identity. Time to move on.

Well, it's finally time to talk about something that's been on my mind for a while:
I'm going to archive my old projects—especially the ones related to DDoS/DoS tools created for so-called "educational purposes."
## 🧠 Why This Matters
You might wonder: Why archive these now?
Let me explain the journey that brought me here, and why I think its time to move forward.

## 📖 The Beginning
Back in the days of "fusenice" (~2020), I didnt even own a computer. I used my phone and connected to remote desktops from Thai cloud providers like Xver and DriteStudio to experience Windows and explore programming.
Thats when I discovered Python—it looked fun! I started learning but quickly lost interest. I wasnt serious about it back then.
Fast-forward to 2021: I became curious about DDoS attacks after seeing services like MCStresser. I had no clue what I was doing—my first "tool" was literally a batch file running ping in a loop. Around this time, I also moved to Vultr and Azure.
Later in 2021, I got my first laptop (Core i3-330M, 4GB DDR3, 250GB HDD) for online classes. Thats when I seriously started learning to code again. I discovered C#—and for some reason, it just clicked. I also dabbled in C++ and Linux while trying to make better (but still pretty bad) attack tools.
Ironically, building those tools pushed me to learn how to code. I was constantly Googling, experimenting, and debugging.

## 💬 About Those Tools
Yes, youve probably seen the many DDoS/DoS tools on my GitHub. Some of you even followed me because of them.
One tool that got attention was DDoSPacket, which I made before I even started middle school. Looking back—it was terrible, I agree. I could write a much better version today, but...

## 🧹 Time to Move On
Ive considered rewriting DDoSPacket and similar tools for years—but now, Ive decided to archive them entirely. Here's why:
- 🧨 My identity has been unfairly tied to these tools. People call me an "attacker" without any proof—even when Ive done nothing wrong.
- ❌ The "educational purpose" label doesnt help. Many people still misuse these tools—I've even received Telegram DMs from people using them to attack PUBG servers.
- 🚫 I dont want legal or personal risks. Its 2025, Im in high school now, and Ive got responsibilities, schoolwork, and teachers to deal with. I dont want to be dragged down by an old repo.
- ❤️ Ive outgrown that phase. These days, I find real joy in learning Linux, C, and Rust.
---
## 🫂 Final Words
Writing those tools taught me a lot. They helped me grow and become who I am today—a true computer enjoyer.
But everything has its time—and that time is over.
If you still want to mess around, you can probably find Termux scripts online. But I wont support or help with anything related to DDoS anymore.
