Erm....where have all the posts gone...?

Mar 31, 2013

Guess some remedial work is being done due to the massive DoS attack?

Hopefully there are backups...?

Hey guys Hope you're both having a great weekend so far.

We had some pretty annoying spam attacks this weekend. Unfortunately, by removing some of those posts, it's cause a little display issue with some of the normal posts. However, I don't believe the regular community posts were actually removed. It looks like if you go back far enough using the page options at the bottom, you can still access the older, normal posts.

We've changed a few things that may really help cut down or remove spam all together (*fingers crossed*). All new post should show up properly from here on out, as we shouldn't have the need to hide or delete spam posts from this point forward. 

The guys that work behind the scenes have been a truly huge help this weekend. We want to keep this community as clean as possible and spam isn't pleasant for anyone. We really appreciate the work they did with this!

Thanks!

Morning Bruce,

That's something we had to disable in order to get the moderation system functional. I know we're working on getting the default subscriptions back up and running, but for the moment we'll have to manually subscribe to posts. 

I've noticed that some of the older threads do remain active in subscriptions, but for new ones, we're currently having to actually click on the subscribe link at the top of the thread. 

We're all looking forward to having this all worked out! I'll try to share any updates I see on this.

Thanks!
