I did get incorrect password too for all of my nations which freaked me out. I think [violet] might had switched that off.

The "Liberate Haven" proposal doesn't seem to be actually worthy of it since Repeal Commend the JSA is now at vote, and RPers have managed to keep approval numbers low still.

I really hope this has nothing to do with the recent Mall/RD/RP shenanigans.
I support peace in Israel and Palestine. The governments and people in power on all sides are an absolute disgrace, and their unwillingness to pursue peace is a disservice to the people they are meant to be serving. The status quo is not simply untenable; it is unquestionably unacceptable.

Actually it probably was a disadvantage for him, as it ate away at the hours remaining to gain approvals.

^ True, but I don't expect anyone to actually attack it since the unapproval campaign was doing quite well in trading the approvals/unapproval at almost a one-for-one level.

The outage was untimely for both camps for it usually is this period that brings about many delegates to go about doing their business.

I'm not sure, but there are some guys going around saying it could have had something to do with Riva's "Liberate Haven" proposal.


Sounds like something a rage hacker would after losing a game. Just rage hack everything which is a show poor sportsman ship from people who don't take losing do easily. Which could bring up a large number of people who might have done this.

If it was at vote and in danger of passing, then one could see a ragequit like this. Truth is, it was probably some script-kiddie bored on a Saturday night. Oddly enough, I could still read the forums, just not much beyond that...

It seems to lean in that direction, it may have been a message to the Moderators about their "Insolence" (No Offense) of allowing a Resolution of this to be allowed from a Moderator who has a history of being a Raider.

P.S: In order to not get the wrath of the Moderators/Admins, conversations regarding the possibility of the resolution being the main factor of the DoS Attack, we should re-direct it; viewtopic.php?f=24&t=303025

That sounds pretty good.

Being on delayed reaction today is making me a bit annoyed with whoever who decided to DoS. Oh well, you never know, it might just be one of those DoS people who decided to DoS us and timed it with this Mall hullabaloo to take his revenge and focus investigations on members in the recent exchange of words. :/
