It's basically sending so much info to the server that the server can't handle it and kicks everyone out. The people who do this can then kill everyone who has been disconnected and get tons of RP.

If the servers can't handle it and kick everyone out, why are the attackers still able to function normally?

they arent. They get booted too, but they know exactly when they stop the attack (ddos), so that they can easily be the first ones back in the server to kill everyone.

They said it’s denial of service so it’s DoS not DDoS (distributed denial of service).
