And how about the DU ADMINS, for keeping DU working after all

[babylonsister]

Thank you all! :toast:

[mtnsnake]

2. Kisses

What else would they be? Everyone is all warm and fuzzy tonight.

:shrug:

4. no really

what is up with them?
it looks like everything posted after the outage has them. go back to an old thread and look at the dates of what does/does not have them. And all the OP's do -probably because they get changed in the db when reaponded to. Maybe the admins restored a later version of the SW, or changed a setting?

I think this is Critical, Need to Know In-For-Ma-Tion!

and I want them gone - they're irritating

6. As a long-time DUer, I never expect, during high traffic, to

have everything working. The fact that I can get on here and post/respond is awesome!
I don't know what you're seeing that is so annoying.

11. I think it's a high-traffic thang...

the sig lines are turned off right now while I'm typing up this post...and that's something that happens during high traffic.
They'll probably be back later in the evening.

The important stuff, like the posts get through...the frills, like sig lines (no insult or belittling intended here! :hi:) wait until there's less people on the site.

I want to say more bandwidth available but I don't know if that's the right 'splanation cos I am idiot at this sort of thing. :crazy:

12. i really wasn't bitching

thought i was being mildly amusing

I was trying to channel Raymond's mother carrying on about the fruit

oh well

[babylonsister]

16. Yes, the crowds boggled the mind, but DU kept going.

I've been on here when nothing was happening, so for them to make this happen tonight was especially awesome!
And I do believe the bandwidth is being addressed but it takes awhile. (I've read that, I'm not just projecting)

7. Thanks

8. This place is going fast! Kick! nt

9. Isn't it about time for a fund drive?

If ever they needed to crank one up, especially after last night's withdrawal.

[babylonsister]

10. I'm sure many DUers are willing if that's what it takes.

And the admins know what they're doing; I don't have complete faith in many people, but I do with them. They rarely disappoint and that's good enough for me. :thumbsup:
