      It always happens. People think it’s funny to destroy/troll stuff someone has painstakingly created. I remember the poor Canadians couldn’t make their maple leaf a few years ago on Place, because people kept vandalising it.

      The same trolls that are attacking the flag have messed with the Union Jack itself. I haven’t bothered with the template, so I can’t be sure how to repair it. Maybe the Brits will wake up and fix it, soon.

      Edit: Or not. The Canvas froze 4 minutes ago (12pm WST/2pm EST). We almost got it cleaned up.

        Yeah thanks mate. I saw you helping out. It was hectic! I wasn’t using the template either - just eyeballing stuff and trying to see what they changed to change it back. I knew it was freezing at 2pm… so knew we just had to survive. I think it ended pretty well for us considering everything they threw at us in the last 3 hours.

        Feels like it was the emu wars all over again!

          I just saw the “finished” canvas and to be honest, it’s not that bad; it’s mostly the shading they screwed up but from afar, it looks ok.

      I wish there was a real report system for these purposes; I’ve reported 3 or so users who were vandalising to grant over in the canvas community but haven’t heard back from them.

      The flag looked so perfect when I went to bed… Oh well
