Just a brief, cautionary note. Anyone that starts having conversations via thread titles faces some severe consequences. If Jolt isn't working, don't do even more to screw with it. :rolleyes:

It's a good thing we're all just wasting time here. Imagine if we'd been having serious discussions that might have led to something. We'd be pissed off then.

Indeed.

It's been down hard for the past 2 1/2 days here, and shitty for much longer. Iffy has been the MO for at least the last year...

It's not so much a matter of any of us leaving the forum as it is a matter of jolt's killing it.

I was on the old forums once...
They were slower than Jolt, but at least they didnt go down for days at a time :P

Actually, from where I stand the NS forums have been killing Jolt, and Jolt's just returning the favor with interest. :(

Indeed. To many of the old school posters have the mantra "the old server was worse!" stamped on their blinders. In the last year Jolt's gone on multi-day crashes 3 times. Thats three more than the old server ever did.

Actually, at this point I'd say Jolt is in a very close race with the old server, and looks to start pulling ahead if we have more outages like this weekend's.

Eh it only seemed like it was down for a day or so. Ah well, they must have bought a new hamster.

That's what I mean, it's working now so they must have binned the old one.

Yeah, apparently they got that one just before my post, because just before that, it was still borken.

"Hello everyone, hello.
I gotta tell ya, the forums have been pretty gay lately."
"HOW GAY WERE THEY?"
"They were so gay, Christopher Lowell called them screaming queens."

I never imagined that I'd ever be saying this back when we were using it, but sometimes I miss the old server. Though at least Jolt doesn't do as many multi-posts.

And since when does being free mean that something which sucks doesnt?
Hey, would you like a FREE copy of ET: The Extra Terrestrial for the Atari 2600? X - The Revolution perhaps?
Oh, oh, I KNOW!
FREE access to the Home Shoping Network.

Gotcha. ;) But, the whininess factor for bitching about a free service is about 30 units higher than for the same suckiness on a paid service. LOL

I won't deny it - while Jolt was down, I was feeling a little lost. This is a bit of a home.
Almost two days of no General did a bit of a number on the rhythm of how I work on the computer anyway. Booo.
So what did y'all get done while you weren't posting?

1. Go look at General.
2. Count the number of threads that consist of whining.

Oh, the old server had its share of lag, too. Not as bad as what we get from Jolt sometimes, but bad enough. At least it actually let you log in with any and all of your nations, though...
*Shakes a heavily clawed fist at Jolt*
*Prods Waaaagh*
You going to post on that intro thread of yours?
My evil alternate's not as patient as I am. ;)
