Due to persistent activity from bots consistent with attempted Distributed of Denial of Service attacks, we have opted to block connections to ikari from Chinese hosts. This means, that the following services will not be available to users of Chinese hosts:

kinmunity.com

wolfhowl.me

ikari, the server that hosts Kinmunity, is currently mitigating a Denial of Service attack. At this time, we believe that this is in-fact a targeted attack against our services. Please be aware: a Denial of Service attack involves overburdening a service so that it cannot take requests -- it does not result in data loss or breaches of privacy. 

EFFECTS

Kinmunity (all)

Kinmunity IRC (all)

Beginning earlier today, various Kinmunity services began to fail. A server reboot was attempted, but as of now the server has still not come back up. Early investigation reveals this may be due to issues on OVH’s side.

As of today, February 15th, 2019, Kinmunity 2.0 is no longer considered to be in open beta. This means that the site is stable and secure enough for every-day use. It also means that most of the core functionality of the site that was available in the first incarnation of Kinmunity has been restored and is now fully operational!

Moods System installed.

Date of Birth enforcement enabled.

Privacy Policy added.

We are aware of unscheduled downtime and the theme bug.

I will be repairing this within the next two hours. Thank you.
