Assalammualaikum wr wb,

Its quite sad for me to say this but we did SPAM your walls last Friday due to a very bad bug in our code that causes it. Yes we take responsibility of this problem.

This App was developed initially for a small group of people but we never know it could just keep growing so fast and end up facing problems that we couldn’t forsee. Perhaps the lack of experience. We apologize for all the trouble caused.

Imagine this, you open a shop expecting a few hundreds of people to patronize it.  Then One day, there are thousands flooding your shop. One person you have to handle cashier and when products runs out you are also the one shelving the products on the shelf. Sooner or later it became chaotic.

Some people might tell you that it is a good problem because many people out there struggle just to bring one customer to their shop whereas we had thousands coming at it at one time.

Perhaps that is true, however with such growth also comes a lot more challenges that needs to be overcome.

This event has definitely thought us a lot about Scaling the systems. Allow us time to figure out the right algorithms and processes and hopefully we can relaunch this on this weekend.
Ya Allah help us in this journey…
