OFF_TOPIC Orain

Are you having issues with Orain? I cannot access any sites (including the Meta at all)? P.S. I am currently unable to read the message you left on my firstrobotix talkpage, could you email it to me: frodobagginsfll@gmail.com? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Blackhat999 (talk • contribs) 00:12, 28 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Orain is currently up, but it has been getting repeatedly DDoS'd. Orain staff is working to resolve the issues and is sorry for any inconvenience. The site is usually up most mornings (GMT-5 anyways) and appears to be null-routed from about noon to well after I sleep. @ND Killa ^^^ 10:58, 28 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Message from TheTVFan

Hello, I am TheTVFan. I am contacting you here because I can't connect to Orain anymore. Are there server problems? When will they be fixed? Please answer on your talk page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.58.18.208 (talk) 16:51, 16 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This is the current topic for our IRC channel "Welcome to Orain! | Status: Offline (DNS Lookup) - Our host-accounts that control our servers and DNS settings were compromised. Currently waiting for host access | !steward for urgent help | Sign up for Orain updates: http://meta.orain.org/o/c"

Unfortunately it looks like our DigitalOcean (server host) account, mail accounts, cloudflare account, or some combination of the three were all compromised.

We're currently looking into this and trying to regain access to the DigitalOcean account. @ND Killa ^^^ 18:31, 16 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Orain hacked

Hi NDKilla I am user jpetersencamp on Orain. It looks like something has been hacked and the web address is re-directing to www.pornhub.com! I don't know who to contact. Can you help? Thanks, Joe 80.193.86.164 (talk) 09:02, 17 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Is there any update available on when Orain will be back up and running? Thank you. Jpetersencamp (talk) 13:52, 21 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I talked with some Orain techs and they don't think Orain is ever coming back. Dusti just up and vanished. He doesn't answer email at all! His orain email bounces and his gmail on the domain whois never gets answered. The phone # on the orain.org whois is not a full phone number so nobody can call. Orain Is Gone And My Life Withers. i'll never forgive the hackers for shuting that wonderful site down. they are all horrible, disgusting people and i hope there's a god and he makes them suffer in hell. i'll never again be able to edit the wikis there and instead all the data is just lost! the hackers have ruined my life completely, all i do all day now is post stuff complaining about the site being gone to get people to talk with me about it BECAUSE THAT'S ALL THAT'S LEFT! I AM GOING MAD I HOPE YOU'RE HAPPY WITH WHAT YOU'VE DONE. IF I EVER SEE SOMEONE MENTION ORAIN IN REAL LIFE I'LL... Stoodpointt (talk) 06:51, 22 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
