The server suffered a stoppage today. GBM managed to get things working again, and we're investigating causes at the moment. Probably just a process going rogue, but we're trying to work out what it is.
The other thing is that we're going to go a little easier on one aspect of moderation. We usually have a rule that race etc doesn't get mentioned unless it's relevant to the tale. After a bit of a discussion, we're going to trial not worrying about this too much as long as such mentions are only used for description. If something looks like it's got racist undertones, we'll deal with it, so please feel free to report any mentions of race that aren't just setting the scene.
Let common sense rule, and we should do fine.
