downtime

Post by enderzero »

If anyone noticed that little outage we had for the last few hours I apoligize. I was notified of it in advance but it snuck up on me. ...carry on.

I cried all night. Actually, Rixler was over, and we tried to access this a few times. I don't know if I can post here anymore. I thought I could trust the administrator. If I can't count on him to keep me informed, what can I count on in this world? :cry:

I imagined as much. Big Fat Jerk! :D We went and did everything, and it was actually quite fun. I ate a bunch of really nice French cheeses, had some good wine, a shot of Ricard, ate some good Chinese food in China-town, etc. I'm nearly dead now though. Must sleep.

The outage caused me to become very nervous, which not unlike a cat or dog, caused me to urinate sporatically. There is now hundreds of dollars in damage to my furniture. Thanks a lot Ender.

You establish trust much like establishing a line of credit, building it up over a long period of time in small increments and repaying that trust with acts of good faith.

You not only destroyed your "line of credit" with the downtime this past weekend, you robbed the bank and shat in the vault! :noway:

yeah, and I heard a rumor that, right now, there are young children in Indonesia starving to death. I bet it's true.

See what you did you little JERK!

Ender's secret scheduled downtime is the cause of everything wrong in the universe. There are asteroids headed toward us right now. And why? Because 3nder didn't let anyone know about the downtime of the Monkey Lair. If the great minds of the lair aren't able to congregate in net space, everything is thrown off balance.

It's not our fault that you failed in your duties as a moderator, and administrator, and a friend. You let us down on many levels. It's going to take some time to regain our trust. This makes us sad.

:D :D :D

There was more of this "downtime" last night. Did you know about this, and didn't inform us? I don't know if I can ever speak to you again.

I'm a Ry---- Al----- fan! For my money it doesn't get any better than when his site goes down. Must be twice as hard for you though.... :D

Guess I don't really need to mask names since he just posted all his contact information. :D

We need a password to get to the lair. Then unwanted authorities couldn't come and read about our piracy, and other such illicit activities.

[TEE HEE HEE]

Who's to say we actually do such things though. This could be entirely fictional. Who knows?

Maybe we don't exist, and this is all part of an elaborate story, written by one Ry---- Al-----.

:crazy: :crazy: :crazy:

Shhhhhh!! My name starts with a Ry and ends with a land.

You know, I think we might be flattering ourselves to think there are any secret lurkers here. ...Other than the Sigma spies of course.

Downtime? I was unaware of that. But if I was on the new server already it would have been automatically tracked, reported to me, and exponentially compensated for. (or so they say)

I'll feed your soul to the Lurker. It's a fate twice bad.

Twice bad?

I don't know, I've seen some pretty strange things. I used to work with a guy who does web searches on the names of people he knows. He found me on the Elektron site, talking about how much I liked the SID Station. :) I suppose I'm probably listed on sites that contain credits for the games I worked on too. I'm in the Halo credits :D

I'm sure we've had some visitors that didn't belong here. Though they probably didn't extract any useful or interesting information from here :D Other than the fact that people as strange as us DO in fact exist. [TEE HEE HEE]

Hmmm... I just tried doing searches on a couple of us. There are tons of Kevin references on google. Apparently there is someone with my exact name, and there are some for you as well. There's a listing for your name on Snow Japan winners or something like that. That sounds like you, is it? None of the searches led to this site though. (Though I didn't really follow any of the links.)

I google myself on a regular basis. Googling screen names is usually more fun. I also googled myself on other search engines including the new msn.

Idle hands spend time googling one's self, and we all know how much god hates that. <--- to be read in Ol' Drippy's voice.

J3RKs last comment motivated me to throw on the Ol' Drippy episode and I must say I haven't laughed that hard in a couple weeks. Some quotes that caused excessive laughter:

Shake:
"Hey Carl"
Carl:
"Shut up! Wait...where are you going with those dishes?"
Shake:
"Nothin"

Frylock:
"What are you doing with that gutter?
Shake:
"What are you doing with that beard? Answer that scientist!"

:D That's a good episode. I think my favorites episode these days are The Cloning, The Last One, and Dumber Dolls.

Zonald?!?!?!
