Support Server Crisis, #1 #5

Open GrinderDeveloper opened 2 years ago

GrinderDeveloper commented 2 years ago

Hello Everyone,

Today in the support server, you guys would’ve received around 48-49 pings. Representing the entire staff team, I would like to apologise due to this inconvenience. I’d also like to apologise for probably being immature during that time frame.

What actually happened?

Someone, who I won’t name for privacy reasons, exploited webhooks to make them spam ping @everyone, and they also put people into “time-out”, a new discord feature. BuilderB#0001 helped the server a ton, and I have to commemorate him on helping us get them out of discord’s time-out feature. This is still ongoing, but we have taken precautions to prevent this from happening again.

Why did this happen?

My team and I believe discord rushed this new feature, not making it post to audit logs. We still cannot find the exact user who did it, but we are taking precautions to make the below less severe. The person that also hacked the server exploited the Discord API, and could see sensitive information within our management channels. This too is still ongoing, pending futher investigation
