::: The update is that we're planning on disabling anonymous editing as soon as our server admins get back to town. That addresses the top concern that people had. It might slow the community growth a little, but at least with everyone being named we'll have a good way to talk to each other and build a community. Vandalism is a ban-worthy offense, of course, since it violates [[All The Tropes:Terms of Service|ToS]] #1. But in most cases, I'll try to reply with a "oh hai, I see what you did there and reverted it" message -- if they persist and have no redeeming value, it's time for a ban.

:::: Thank you for that answer. Another concern of mine, however, is hacking. I remember that TVT got hacked and DDoSed a few times, but that site's security wasn't all that good to begin with. My hope is that ATT is much more secure, and that even if the security ''does'' get defeated somehow we can still recover relatively quickly. At least, I would hope so, anyway. -- [[User:Tennessean|Tennessean]] ([[User talk:Tennessean|talk]]) 01:17, 6 January 2014 (UTC)
:::: We're much better off that score. MediaWiki has far few site security holes than PmWiki and the Orain staff can lock the database/server to shunt off any potential DDoS. [[User:GethN7|GethN7]] ([[User talk:GethN7|talk]]) 01:21, 6 January 2014 (UTC)
