@Floern You can execute the !!/report command again in 11 seconds. To avoid one user sending lots of reports in a few commands and slowing SmokeDetector down due to rate-limiting, you have to wait 30 seconds after you've reported multiple posts in one go.

right, so there may be some flapping of Solar Flare's connection over the next 20 minutes... I have to redo the hypervisor's routing table because the upstream gateway for one of the IPs went wonky, and now routing is a little fubar. (if Solar becomes too unstable feel free to fail over to another instance)
