Downtime 8/17/23 - Raion - 08-17-2023

Someone attempted to hack our database afternoon Europe time and tried to attack us. They eventually managed to take the site offline by filling up the server's disk space with logs. 

I have recovered the site and closed the security loophole but just as a warning to hackers looking to try and try their way in, I've already offered the true IP address of the person responsible to the cyber crime unit in your country. If you're going to try to hack something use more than just a crappy VPN.
