Site Outtage
9 years ago
Hey everyone,
As you know the site was down for a few days due to an attack and a lot of info was lost when the FA team had to restore the lost info from a previous backup they did on May 11th.
Due to this info lost my last comic page and a few updates in my scraps section was lost and I had to re-post it. I'd like it if everyone who faved the comic page and left comments could re-fave the page and try to comment again as it would really mean a lot to me! :3 Thanks!
If you want some more info on the attack there's an update journal on it here: http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/7578912
And here's a link to the re-upload of Page 75 of MUSA: https://www.furaffinity.net/view/20023186/
Now for my feelings on the attack.
I'm pretty pissed about the attack but I don't blame the FA staff at all. I think whoever attacked the site is immature and no matter what their reason for causing this attack it's really damn petty. This site is the sole income for so many artists and even tho I take precautions and always have the emails of my current clients the site being down means I can't post YCH's, art packs, adopts and any other works that I rely to pay the bills. It's hard enough to make a living as an artist without assholes limiting what I can do to make the much needed moolah! Also whoever caused these attacks is just plain stupid, how much time and effort was put into causing this, and for what? the site was back up in day or two and this attack only makes the site security stronger so attacking it is harder! Talk about failure!
Anyways rant over, I'd just like to say that I'm impressed and very pleased with the FA staff, they did an excellent job restoring the site and getting it back up and running. I know people can be really harsh on FA but I think this site is really well run and cared for, it's the best Furry art site I've ever used and without it I wouldn't be able to do my dream job which is making art for all you lovely people! I'm happy to hear that the site is getting improvements all the time and I know with the current team running the site that nothing can bring it down forever! Keep up the good work FA team!
If you guys have any info on the attack please contact the FA staff, the account you can send it to is in the journal link above. Let me know what you guys think of this stuff and I hope none of you lost too much art, watchers or the like.
TTFN!

still not happy the hacker was never caught
Thankfully Dragoneer got back to me today and my account is back in order!
I'm pissed that the hacker wasn't caught either, I just hope they can't do shit like this again!
