#UtaForum Service Update
Webhost as remotely rebooted all the services on our server node and has given us access to our server again. I was able to log in and repair our database. Everything should be in working order again.
Concerning #UtaForum. Our database server crashed and needs a manual reset. Unfortunately my admin credentials no longer work and even SSH-ing as ROOT won't let me reset my password because of various authentication errors. I opened a ticket to resolve the issue but we are waiting on our host.

#UtaForum Service Update.
Our database is down due to pseudo-DDOS from too many AI bots scraping our content. They are crashing our session database, will take a moment to sort out, maybe implement some better anti-bot, anti-AI features, Cloudflare maybe?
