Hey, I didn't really know who else to turn to! I hope this isn't a big problem but, I'm having trouble getting results from en.wikipedia.org, wikipedia.com etc. along with a few isolated websites - they just won't load. Google's cache for wikipedia articles, such as this one on Midseason Replacement's...

who talks/types like this? No seriously, is it a joke of some sort? Are you actually trying to utter gibberish? This is harder than reading Welsh's Scottish in Trainspotting. Get a dictionary, mate.

It's my attempt at what I understand to be l337. alexstein says I got it, but it's a weak joke on my part since I have little or no understanding of what it really is or how pre-teens use it to communicate across the web.

In other words: it's a joke!

Ah sorry... We tripped a breaker and I had to run out to the shed and turn the servers back on... Forgot to upgrade the firmware and be able to "automatically restart after a power failure..."


:rolleyes: ;)

Bah! I am part of the iGeneration and NOONE speaks in leet... at least not as hardcore as that. People of the older generations do often take the micky, but the most I, and anyone i know, ever do is drop g's from words like "trying" ("tryin" "goin" etc.), "cos" instead of because, "nite" instead of goodnight... but these are not taxing to the average observer....
