hello Flow node operators,

Please add this flag to your Flow node(s) and restart the node  
`--gossipsub-peer-scoring-enabled=false`

This is to address the current ongoing issue with collection finalization (see: [Flow Status - Cluster Finalization Degradation](https://status.onflow.org/incidents/vctzkzwk46p5))

_This flag applies to ALL node types._

_Do **not** delete the data folder._

_If you are running multiple nodes, then please restart the nodes one at a time, pausing for 20 to 30 seconds in between._

Thank you,  
Flow Team
