I've been using dLease occasionally for years, and as you said @thecryptodrive always acted very responsibly. Therefore, I also think, or better to say, I'm afraid something really serious and entirely unexpected must have happened.
On the other hand, if he is the only one operating the site and the only one with access to it - that's not good, exactly for such entirely unforeseen situations.
Besides that, when the Discord channel is the only support we can get, I would expect from admins, developers, or whoever else is part of the team to say something, even if it is, "We don't know what happened, and we can't get in touch with Megadrive (@thecryptodrive)." - It would be a valid info too.
However, I hope and believe things will clear up. I just don't know when and how long we will have to wait.
Last but not least, it's good that you mentioned the Hive-Engine lease option, as for those who may have forgotten it, the same for those who maybe never heard about it.
