Buckle up. Voat is currently being hit with a malicious attack. This couldn't have possibly happened at a worse time for me personally and I may have to put Voat into lockdown mode or even set it to Read Only. Perhaps we will resurrect the
bit privilege checking goat (you know you miss having your bits privilege checked).
I'm hoping that the code is in a good enough place to handle a majority of the incoming traffic, but expect slow responses.
I will try my best to keep Voat online. Wish me luck.
Edit:
I'm still waiting for the main attack. Every DDOS we've been hit with before follows a pattern of probing exploits, quiet time, then the full attack. So we will see, but waiting is the hardest part
Edit 2:
As of now I feel they've postponed. After taking us down two times the morning of this announcement, I've seen no further activity. A temporary win I suppose.

I may not have this in order but will try. Hillary had someone killed and dumped in a river. The people on v/pizzagate were hot on that trail, it was all related. Then suddenly all the post were removed. Yes we are over the target. The people that posted the digs on pizzagate could be in danger because they are not anonymous. There is an article about the murder and ties to Hillary, Debbie Wasserman Schultz and VOAT v/pizzagate. I will find the link and pist it here asap.
