The attack only lasted for 6-10 hours but we were offline much longer. This is because we had an older plugin that was causing problems and I decided to set up future protections. With the plugin fixed and protections in place, future incidents should be more manageable.
If you found that you were out of the loop, I highly recommend joining the Discord. Whenever we go offline I post updates and answer questions.

Thank you for your efforts during that period. I know you worked long hours for SL.

I completely overlooked this thread.
Oni's efforts are well and truly appreciated on my end too. I know what It's like to run a board on this scale, and It's not easy maintaining It on the same level of operability on a consistent basis.

I don't envy his position, that's for sure. However, there aren't that many people that would put the time and effort in that he does. Save, perhaps yourself!

Yes, he certainly generates a lot of time and effort toward this board and I "sort of" know how he feels.
From the moment I log on, I check "every new post" to make sure It's compliant with the rules. This takes anywhere between 30 minutes to an hour- depending on content, activity and action taken. Moving threads predominantly takes up most of my time. I always make sure to reply when I move threads, just to make the OP aware that It belongs In the forum of where It's moved.

Your efforts never go unnoticed. I am so grateful to have you as a fellow staff member, and quite easily the best staff member we've ever had.
