    Heads up! Someone using the name AO3_Status_ (note the second underscore) is impersonating this account and attempting to scam AO3 users out of money. Please block and report this account. (And please note that the real donation form is currently down due to a DDoS.)

    We're back! However, we may need to do some work to optimize our shiny new Cloudflare setup -- we'll keep you updated on any issues or downtime.

    A couple of our servers have gotten a bit overwhelmed, so we're taking some down time to give them a chance to catch up. We'll be back as soon as possible!

    We've temporarily disabled the ability to request a new account invitation as a preventative measure due to a spam attack. Apologies for the inconvenience! We'll let you know when it's back.

    Starting from now, #AO3 will be down for our planned maintenance for about 6 hours. We’ll post again when we’re back!

    We're still working to mitigate the DDoS attacks. In the meantime, you may receive various error messages or encounter display issues with the site layout.

    The Archive is back! We've got some extra protections in place while we sync up the third database server, so you may see some Cloudflare messages as you browse.

    The Archive recorded 68.6 million page views on Sunday, which is a new weekend high. 🥳 448 million page views for the whole week, which is 150 million more than the same time last year. (Are you all okay?)
