ragnamuffin Posted Thursday at 02:34 AM The forum was down for several days and many people were worried it was gone for good. Could we get an explanation about what happened? 1 17 Make your own signature like this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tasuke Posted Thursday at 03:51 AM (edited) Indeed; I Was Worried as Well. First DoA and then This. It Felt like the Start of Some sort of General Attack upon this Hobby, TBH... Edited Thursday at 03:53 AM by Tasuke Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MoiBakaDesu Posted Thursday at 12:54 PM Yes, I was really scared that whatever happened would have made it impossible to recover the forum. I am glad to see that it is back, but a statement would be great. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sunlightandtea Posted Thursday at 01:09 PM Agreed completely, so glad you guys are back! That was scary! 😿 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Veravey Posted Thursday at 04:53 PM (edited) I was also hoping for some context to the outage; it was sudden and a bit jarring. It doesn't help that this happened during all of the other forum closure discourse... (-ω-、) An explanation should be provided for the paying Patreon members, and would be polite to give everyone overall.

caiusdolls Posted Thursday at 06:28 PM I would also just like a brief explanation of possible. I was totally worried it was closed for good too, just like DoA. If there’s an issue with something regarding the server, maybe some of us can even help : ). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GirlWiththeDragoonTattoo Posted Thursday at 08:41 PM It was flagging as unsafe on my phone. I was actually concerned the site had been hacked. So yes, some sort of statement would be helpful. It was quite alarming. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Giragira Posted yesterday at 03:09 AM Yes I was worried that it was something serious. So when the site came back, I was expecting to see some info of what the issue was. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CaffeinatedCake Posted yesterday at 10:04 AM I'm relieved to see DD back online! Whatever happened, even if it might seem embarrassing or something, is worth sharing imo! 1 Help! I fell into DD hell! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Patreon was actually one of the first places for me to look after the site went down. - It should be a great backup channel for the admins to communicate / make announcements in case something similar happens again. - Most of the forum members at least know it exists and it's pretty easy ro find with a Google search. 1 Photo Story - Photo Thread - make your own signature like this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rajke Posted 16 hours ago When the forums went down I contacted Baldylox who replied to me that he informed Averis about the situation. I am glad to see that DollDreaming is live again. But I was worried that it would be some kind of hack or attack on the site. Let’s hope that the rootcause is tackled. 1 Greetz, Rajke Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mizuumi-no-Otome Posted 14 hours ago (edited) I came on and looked for an announcement about the issue as soon as the site went back online. I hope everything is okay. Edited 5 hours ago by Mizuumi-no-Otome Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
baldylox Posted 13 hours ago I was contacted through all of my social media accounts about this on Sunday. Beyondtime and I both immediately told Averis about it because neither of us had a way to access the forums. I still don't know what the reason was for the outage. I'm just glad it got fixed and that things are back to normal. Thanks to those that reached out to us about this. Billy 3 I gave up counting the girls I own, they keep multiplying and won't stop.

BeyondTime Posted 7 hours ago I never got an answer either. I emailed Averis, but didn't get a reply. I don't know if it came back up on it's own or if Averis intervened but never had a chance to answer. I'm honestly more worried about the lack of a reply, and hope he's ok. 1 1 4 “Empty wallets, full hearts.” That’s probably an apt description for the effects of DD addiction.

Perhaps it's an idea to have you or @baldylox as a backup should anything happen to Averis? Because the way I read your reply, right now the forum is screwed if something goes wrong on his side and any of the following happens: certificate becomes invalid, domain name lapses, technical issue takes down forum. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
