I have to hand it to them; the situation they were faced up against would have been the kiss of death for most other websites. However, it was handled with the utmost care and professionalism. The site, backend data, the site's full functionality survived an incredibly delicate situation.

Are there still concerns that this place has become a "honeypot"? Of course there are. You are responsible for your own security and you should do your own research into the matter until you're satisfied that you have verified through independent research that a site is safe for use.

When there is such a steep division between mods, admins, or (in this case) a single mod, things don't work so well. The fact that the current mods have kept this one, massive site afloat, consisting of millions of daily users, for as long as they did with these issues is a true testament to their dedication towards providing a platform for free speech.

Trust me, they make it look easy, especially with how well things had been migrated between domains, but it took a lot of planning and effort on their end to make it look easy. Most other sites will fumble and have visible, prolonged disruptions in service while others would shut down all together. Because of this planning and foresight, we survived yet another great barrier.

For that, thank you for all you do.
