Site integrity incident, 2026-11-13

[Karmic Acumen]

i would really recomend you guy on staff to make a twitter or bluesky account to communicate these sorts of things, without that we are completely in the dark about it, hell even an official QQ account of Space battle and Sufficient velocity would have been welcomed

Eh, we can take this much.

Thanks you, @alethiophile . You and the rest of the mods are doing the Lord's work.

Now... Did y'all find the individual responsible for this cyber attack? I am not asking for a friend. I just need to know who to put a hit out on talk to about our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ.

Cambrian watching this site go down during No-Fic-November must've been like a truck driver hearing a warehouse got molotov'd while driving to his next job.

Maybe we should warn spacebattles just in case

 

[A_Scarecrow]

Thanks for the hard work.

Glad the site didnt get Ao3ed and thank god the moderators are competent.

Now if only these AI could get started on that whole solve all the worlds problems and cure cancer instead of being used to fuck up everything for everyone.

 

[Jagganoth]

This why I rock with you QQ guys. You see a problem and you just fix it.

 

[Bronz]

Thank you for your hard work mods and staff, I was really afraid this site had gotten Ao3'ed not gonna lie so I'm very happy to see it back up.

I fear that it'll kill the internet at this rate.

I think we're in for a Cyberpunk-esque Datacrash where the old internet will be too dangerous to use. All the corporations and governments will make their own safe varieties that are policed by them, and required to participate in normal society.

The thing is that, in our world the new shit will be just as crap as the old. The shit-slop dystopia never ends.

There's an irc (#questionalquesting), where updates were given. I'm not saying it's a good alternative but there is an off site place for communication by staff.

 

[RandomPassersby]

Thank you for your hard work!!

 

[ThunderBasilisk]

So glad this got fixed so fast

 

[Gabriel neowild435]

BWell, there's a website where we could bring people together; it's a fork of Discord.

 

[Dr Squid]

Thanks for the vigilance and expedient remediation guys!

This is what frustrates me the most about all of this tbh.

There were probably always people out there with the hacking skills necessary to hack a website like QQ, but why would they bother? They had more important things to be doing.

These AI agents though are putting that same power in the hands of just about any joe-shmoe. I fear that it'll kill the internet at this rate.

How the fuck is AI getting sophisticated enough to hack websites but when I have make phone calls I have to still listen to dumb AI not understanding me or sending my call to the wrong place? Or in video games AI bots are still dumb and get stuck, get themselves killed or kill their teammates.

 

[Grimmouse197]

If I had to guess somebody's probably using AI And using this as an opportunity to use vigilante justice upon a site and it's users that he or she views as filth. Obviously I have no proof but I suspect that vibe coding was involved.

they got one it's the libra chat link they post every time the site need to update. It's the unofficial hangout when the site is down

 

[Kage]

Someone out there really doesn't like fan fiction sites, and I'm going to need them to fuck off.
