DU is getting slow and weird again!! Are we about to go away???

[Bouncy Ball]

:scared:

This is how it started last night. Someone hold me, quick! It's getting dark in here!

[KitchenWitch]

1. I noticed that too

Thought it was just my browser or connection speed.

[kittycat1164]

2. I'm back from shopping

and I noticed how slow it is too. Let's hope all stays well.

[Patsy Stone]

3. Thought it was just me

I couldn't connect for hours last night, and now it's acting weird again.

Could it be Rove? :)

14. Off subject, but

Your Daria avatar only makes you more beloved by me than you already are, Patsy. :hi:

[Patsy Stone]

23. Thanks for that.

More and more as life goes on I realize that I am Daria.

:hi:

[intheflow]

26. I can see that.

Daria and Keith Olbermann would be a love connection made in heaven. ;)

[Patsy Stone]

29. I think so, too.

btw, wanna laugh out loud? :crazy:

[intheflow]

31. Alas, Patsy,

since I don't have cable, I have only seen KO once in my whole life when I caught the last minute of his Leno interview. The one week I stayed anywhere with cable in the last year was the week he had off before Christmas, so I didn't even get to see him them. :(

So I don't get the joke of these links. :shrug:

But of course I can tell he and Daria were made for each other by his moderately sarcastic yet intellectually engaging writing style.

[Patsy Stone]

35. It was more

about the fact that over the weekend we've all been in that thread picking out ties for his b-day. :crazy: :hi:

[intheflow]

36. NOW yer killin' me!

heeheehee! :silly:

[Bouncy Ball]

4. Quick!

Let's say our goodbyes just in case this is it for a while!

Where is that Yahoo group for DU when it goes down? I need to go register for that.

[intheflow]

13. DU Panic Room link:

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/DUPanicRoom/

Saved my sanity last night!

[Bouncy Ball]

18. Thanks

I set it up and sent a message to the mod to ask to be let in!

:hi:

[tyedyeto]

33. Didn't know there was an alternate place to go when DU is down

[intheflow]

37. Now ya do!

[WMliberal]

5. your mom is getting slow and weird again

:silly:

I'm on dialup, it's always slow...

[Bouncy Ball]

8. LOOOOOOSER!

Get broadband or DSL what the hell's wrong with you?

;-)

[WMliberal]

24. i graduated and went home.

No more T3 connection for me.

[BikeWriter]

6. OH, my Dawg! Does this mean I have to get a life?

:-(

[Bouncy Ball]

9. How you doin?

[BikeWriter]

17. Wondering whether to have a panic attack.

I almost went into withdrawal this morning when I couldn't get here, and I have another entire forum to run.

[Bouncy Ball]

19. Thank DOG I'm not the only one

who freaks out when DU is down. I kept hitting refresh over and over again.

Got three hours of sleep because of it.

[BikeWriter]

22. I slept a few hours, too. I was sure glad DU was up this morning...

...and hope it stays this way!

[intheflow]

38. That was how much sleep I got, too.

I stayed on until it was up again, how obsessive is that? Glad I'm traveling the next couple days, it'll force me to unplug. :freak:

[mohinoaklawnillinois]

7. Yeah, I'm noticing it too. n/t

[InvisibleTouch]

10. I noticed it last night when I couldn't connect.

Hope all is well....

[pres2032]

11. i don't know, looks like it's getting better

hopefully it doesn't go away!

[Jamastiene]

12. Traffic or Freeper Cyber Terrorism?

Is there someone to alert at DU to look into the causes? Personally, I have become so alert to the domestic terrorists at home (repukes) that I can't find any other cause for anything that is going wrong right now. They do seem to turn anything they touch into excrement. And they seem obsessed with hating those of us who don't agree with them. Am I paranoid or not?

[Bouncy Ball]

20. ANYtime DU is down for more than just a few minutes

I seriously wonder....

[Lisabtrucking]

15. Yes it is very slow, and no other site is doing it. n/t

[arcane1]

16. sluggish for me too

and getting reports of others who cannot get in at all

[Cadence]

21. My guess, since the sig lines are gone, is that it's traffic.

I bet they were doin upgrades on something last night. Isn't that usually when they do stuff, Sunday night late?

Don't worry folks computers require maintenance, problems crop up and sometimes they go down unexpectedly. I don't think DU is going anywhere!

[Jamastiene]

25. Awwww!

Come on. Let us toy with conspiracy theories a little longer. We'll have a solid defense when they do actually attack us.
}(
Join us. Please. We need everyone's input so we can be more unified.

[Cadence]

27. LOL! If I put my left foot in shake it all about. Will that do?

[Jamastiene]

28. Yes, it would, actually,

it would disarm the right wingers. Make them laugh or their version of laughing which is to stand there trying to attempt to think. In the meantime, the rest of us will throw virtual nets over their heads. I know just the thing that they would see as torture. I'll play Green Day and Dead Kennedys albums to them over and over and over. And laugh at them. They really HATE that. Hahaha.

[msgadget]

30. A lot of people are home from work today. High traffic

There, there, things will look better on the morrow. :grouphug:

[JohnKleeb]

32. if somethin happens, IM me.

[tyedyeto]

34. it's working just fine for me and I have...............

<gasp> dial-up.
