I'm sorry if this is an unusual site introduction, but a group of users on the forum /b/ of www.4channel.org is/was planning a raid on this site in which they'd spam messages for users to kill themselves. Having been a victim of depression myself who had attempted suicide, I found it important to warn this forum in case this invasion goes through. The /b/ community as a whole has voted down the idea of a raid, but individuals have stated that they will attempt solo assualts, and one person has stated that they will ask another website to perform an attack. Normally I would certainlt not warn a forum and maybe even join in the attack but seeing as such an attack could here result in one or more deaths of users I am not comfortable with this invasion.
As a suggestion to mods/admins, it may be wise to make registrations admin-approval only or at least to moniter the forums very closely in the near future and/or this weekend.
With that out of the way, now that I'm registered maybe I can be a helpful part of the community. At least I'll probably try to help out in the suicide forums. Hope to see you all soon.
EDIT: A screenshot of the discussion after the idea of the raid was put to a yea/nay vote. Approximatly 2/3 of the votes were "nay" but a few "yea" voters indicated the might take matters into their own hands.
