Me and a friend had a minecraft server we'd built up over the years (hosted on my free azure msdn license credits). I lost the license along with my job and we migrated to a traditional host. Within a day or two someone had port scan'd us, logged on, and trashed the shit out of our spawn/base. Like, was fine, we reloaded from backup etc.

Now we know to set the whitelist up but I see in the server logs people regularly try to get on with appropriately "wEwIlldESTroYyOOurSvr" tags etc
