Discovery RP server has been attacked starting 7:30am GMT today.

Evidence is being collected and server itself will have to stay down for some time before it's safe to start it up again.

EDIT: Server will stay down for a few days.

Oh for the ability to punch idiots across the internet...

Hopefully it's back up soon, but I suppose I can wait. Whatever you do, don't let us pressure you into restarting it before it is actually completely safe. The last thing we want is to be too hasty and lose the server altogether.

I foresee a brutal and near-mindless crusade possibly arising from some of the more aggressive members of the community. I'm content to sit back and watch, however.

Good luck tracking the git/piecing it back together, Maj. You do so much simply by hosting the server.

Hmm this is most unfortunate. It's most likely someone who was recently banned and/or severely penalized however, so hopefully their incompetence will spill over into this effort as well.

*cries* WHY US!! What did we do? Oh right, that... *sobs*

I agree with Hunter, search those who have recently been banned for a long period of time and put a stop to them.

FOR SPART- DISCOVERY!!
