Thanks for the detailed feedback, it is appreciated. We’ll see how things go for a bit and I’ll make tweaks as needed.

If there have been over a certain number of approved moderation flags within the last few months then you may be gated out of trust level 3 by the algorithm. It can still be earned, but takes time. It can also be lost if forum activity dips or anything along those lines.

Check out this article to explain it in a bit more depth than I’d be able to do here without copy pasting: https://blog.discourse.org/2018/06/understanding-discourse-trust-levels/

Moderators have tools to control this,...

We don’t, but higher trust levels are gated for recently approved flags so those likes won’t boost someone up over to the next rank.

The idea is that volume is limited so you have to be more selective about quality.

We’re not going to tell you what a ‘good’ like is or isn’t. And I may increase the cap a bit here to be less restrictive.

I just renamed the Regular title to Veteran.

Good morning everyone! So, this is what I get for pushing buttons at midnight and going to sleep

To explain a bit about what’s going on: Discourse (this forum software) offers a lot of tools and power which we haven’t been making use of. I’ve been talking about experimenting with taking us back a bit closer to the default recommended settings to see how things will go. This means enabling certain things like trust-levels and placing a limit on likes.

I will admit I didn’t intend to open the floodgates last night, apparently tweaked the wrong setting which enabled you guys to jump up in trust levels really quick. While this wasn’t intended to happen just yet I may just leave it for a while and see how things go, spinning dials as necessary and stressing out the ISD staff.

So, a few points from the above discussion....

Will take a look - it went down a few weeks back as well so I’m not totally sure what’s up. Poking the web team.

We’re starting back up now, should be back online in juuuust a minute here…

That’s great to hear! But this notification is for tomorrow

Archive seems to be back up now. Let me know if you have any other issues.

Hello everyone,

Please be aware there will be an extended downtime tomorrow (Tuesday, August 11) for some database updates, including updates for ongoing tiericide changes.

Downtime may last for up to 30 minutes but as always if work is completed sooner TQ will be back online just as soon as its ready.

Updates will be provided in this thread and on the EVE Status Twitter account.

Update: Tranquility back online and accepting connections as of 11:21 UTC. Fly dangerously capsuleers.

Ah, thanks guys - poking the web team to take a look at this soon.

We’ve recently added a new feature to Singularity which we’d love to get your help in testing. Alliances and corporations frequently use contracts to distribute ships to their members and setting up each contract individually is a time intensive task. We’re hoping to simplify this for you by allowing you to simultaneously create up to 30* contracts for selected ships at once.
*This number is subject to change

When creating an Item Exchange contract you’ll see a new option for “Assembled Ships”. When chosen, every ship that is selected will be entered into a new, separate contract with the terms listed (it’s not a requirement that all the ships are fit the same or even of the same type, you choose what ships you want to put up for contract). This will create multiple single Item Exchange contracts which are in no way different from other Item Exchange contracts.

With this feature we are focusing on the “Single ship for ISK” exchange which is most commonly ...

You’re forgiven. I probably will too.

Unfortunately Iceland’s got pretty strict exotic animal laws so we have to make due with our current server hardware for now.

We should now be back and accepting connections.
