I'm the one who created this incident on our status page. I've been overly cautious in resolving this incident, but at this point I think it's causing more harm than good to keep it unresolved on there.

I think it might've prevented users from posting on our forums or sending in an email (premium support). I can imagine users looking at the status page and mistakenly thinking their problems were related to the current incident.

I've interpreted "Monitoring" as essentially meaning: "this is fixed, but we're keeping a close eye on the situation". We do not yet have a formal process for incidents such as this one (but we are working on that).

If our users are having issues, that's a problem. Looking at our own metrics, the community forum and our premium support inbox: I don't believe this to be the case.

Perhaps we should've done a better job at explaining the exact symptoms our users might be experiencing from this particular incident.
