Walkthrough scenario of 51% attack
-
Got your attention with the 51% attack… well it’s not a mining 51% attack… a community one.

over at x360a when a group tries raiding, the admins can flip a switch for mod post approval for new accounts under X amount of posts. They have thousands of active members, seems to work in an emergency.
