Union forums noticed by hundreds of DU members, hell freezes over
Edited on Sat Jan-05-08 01:44 AM by DainBramaged
Hundreds of DU members noticed that there was a labor forum yesterday. The weight of the collective views overloaded the servers, causing them to bargain for more space on the server farm. No progress was made, however, until the autobots of the non-union threads lined up to lockout and the slow down the sillier forums. The lockout ended as Teamsters, UAW, AFL-CIO AND AFSCME muscled their way across the boards to stand with their brethren the United Forum Posters (UFP, Local DU001)

2. It happens to me all the time in the Veterans forum.
I know folks are reading it by looking at the counts. (That's all that really matters.)
