forum withdrawal

[MacNut]

I was like oh crap, did my DSL die again , but luckily everything else on the net worked..... glad MR is back, I was clicking refresh every three minutes

I actually reset my router.

 

[skunk]

Ok did anyone type in their password for the forum "temporarily offline"

I'm saying nothing.

 

[MacNut]

When it first went down, I actually felt a bit guilty.

guilty that you broke it or that you couldn't post.

 

[PlaceofDis]

likely both, but we still love him.

 

[treblah]

I actually reset my router.

Me too. The DSL modem and the ABS.

I was about to get the shakes.

We need a backup forum, somewhere we can meet in case of emergency

I do have a MacRumors group in .Mac, but I am clueless about how to use .Mac groups....

I had nothing to do for like 45 minutes. I got kinda scared.

I know it was hard!



Actually, I did not even notice- I was playing Sim City 4 the whole time.....

When it first went down, I actually felt a bit guilty.

I got some work done, for a change. It felt odd.

 

[mad jew]

Actually, I got a ridiculous amount of notes written for my revision. Kinda shows how distracting this place can be.

But at least hanging out at MR is fun and satisfying. Not the case I fear when it comes to doing work.

Maybe the outage truncated it!

You know the old saying that a picture is worth 1000 words? Well smilies are on special and are only worth 425 a piece. Using the same rules his very post qualifies as one thousand words too, not fifty, including the quote.

I slept through it. But it was an unsettled restless sleep and I woke in a cold sweat with the feeling something was very wrong in the world.

Is that like a Disturbance in The Force?

I did.

Then I blamed it on the fact that I was using our PC at the moment. So i tried it on my MBP and it didn't work.

 

[Macmaniac]

I tried to enter a password and it did not work

Ah it was so scary. Smack the ISP!

 

[dmw007]

Sounds like it.

 

[Doctor Q]

Each of my posts is a 1000-word essay, and I spend hours composing each and every sentence

Then why is this post only 50 words?

Called sarcasm.

Hmmm... Perhaps I wasn't kidding after all.

The really scary thing is that I had already pasted your post into Word to see that it was 644 words (without the title).

 

[Doctor Q]

The really scary thing is that I had already pasted your post into Word to see that it was 644 words (without the title).

So it is exactly 1000 words, after rounding.

 

[WildCowboy]

So it is exactly 1000 words, after rounding.

It depends on how you're rounding. If you round to the nearest 10,000 words, your post contains exactly nothing.

I just rounded his post number off to the nearest 100,000.

Thus I read this post instead.
