Just a quick announcement that we will be pushing an update to the site today sometime. This process will require database changes and thus we will have to shut the site down while this work is done. We estimate up to 1-2 hours of downtime.
This update is making changes we need to build in new features we have planned and thus is more architecturally focused so no big changes in User Experience (yet). Exciting times to come though!
We will post an announcement announcing the changes afterwards.

Hate to bug you on something unrelated, but I have to bring it up. What's going on with /v/til and @sanegoatiswear
Are you aware of the issue?
Do you have plans to address it, or do you want to run its course?
Tangentally related, how are you going to address whatever means Sanegoat is using to quite obviously manipulate voats?

I am fully aware of the situation and this update will address some of the major voting issues we have at Voat.

I hope you plan on looking at both sides. There has been clear brigading both for and against Sanegoat. I'm not on either side, I'm just a little tired of these SBBH guys chasing people off the site (yeah, I wouldn't miss Sanegoat either, it's more the principle).

I see all sides and am remaining neutral. Vote manipulation will be stopped.

I very much appreciate your response. Thanks for all you do. You've never let us down yet.
