Good reaction

Yeah but at the time Sam was probably irate and it's his personality and I'm sure it gave few people a smile. Nice to know that you can bring light in rubbish situations like when someone said to me "thats why girls shouldn't be managers" sure it isn't truthful but it's funny (not that I was the one who said it )

Of course if Sam had mentioned it elsewhere I believe this would have the effect you are talking of, but in the public announcement?

Anyway things like that are menial.
The issue is the way in which this issue was dealt with by certain members off staff such as Garion, Jin & Mrs.McCall. Well done :eusa_clap

[Sammeth.]

As the situation was occurring, behind the scenes it was a bit hectic. Me and Garion were in constant communication to try and get things done, then as soon as Mrs.McCall was on we were in constant communication to try and handle situations as best as we could with what we had until the superheroes came online. As I also had to update everyone, to ensure they knew we were fighting the problem I took it with a pinch of salt. I guess I'm just not that diehard serious, but hey! What was more important to me was dealing with the situation, not how I put across the updates . Sorry if it offended you.

[Hecktix]

It didn't offend me lol I just always saw announcements as something official & professional.
Anyway as said earlier its menial, well done.

A big hand to Sam, Garion, Joey, and Jin. They did an awesome job.

Jake, in reference to the technical thing, I know enough to sort out emergencies, while I can't necessarily fix EVERYTHING I can fix it to the point where its no longer a security risk but instead something's broken. Usually we do have a second technical guy in OSH and we have a third secret guy who wasn't around at the time but yeah.

[Immenseman]

Yeah, I did try and get in contact with OSH (I know he's away) but wasn't able to make contact because at the time I knew you wouldn't be on until later and wasn't sure if Jin was away. Things were done pretty smoothly anyway which is exactly why I made a little (a) fuss the other day about the lack of communication when forum was down so it wouldn't happen again and it didn't.

[leah]

Its just taking a light hearted approach to things! Its my style I can't help it.

and we love you for it

Yeah but at the time Sam was probably irate and it's his personality and I'm sure it gave few people a smile.

better not have been...

I don't think more people should have rights, just incase of another breach of security, todays events show us that it can happen. Everything was sorted, maybe not as quickly as it could have, but it was and no lasting damage was done, which is the main thing.

[Mrs.McCall]

Thanks for the well dones.

The way in which Sam dealt with it was both humourous and professional. He was humourous (sp?) on the forum but when he was speaking with me on MSN he was very professional and delegated well and there was great communication.

They just got lucky that they struck at a time when there were no admins or people with admin powers online.
