That about says it... I suppose we'll see if they had proper back-ups. " Hah. The site says it was supposed to be back up as of ... 7:40 PST PM. Which was something like close to nine hours ago.
Nobody said it was easy, they said it was your job. If you don't like that, go find a new profession.
If you haven't foed me yet, what are you waiting for?
"loosing millions"
Yeah, baby, cut those millions loose, and let 'em run!!!
Learn to spell, jackass...
I like how everyone bitches about MySpace, and then posts like 3 or 4 bulletins per week, plus blogs, rotates their pictures regularly and checks out shallow girls on there. It's funny.
It's like, "I don't like this air/but that doesn't mean I'll stop breathing it"--Built to Spill
Please stop stalking me, bro.
Maybe its because its running on Windows. Truthfully, it seems they cannot upgrade their windows servers fast enough to keep up with the new subscribers. I can rarely log into MySpace anymore, and when I do, it will sometimes take upwards of 30 seconds or more to process that I have clicked a link. Not only do they need to learn how to co-lo, but they need to learn how to load balance.
Some of yous guys are really closed-minded. Yeah, I totally understand the MySpace stereotype, but that's a STEREOTYPE. Not everybody who uses the network is a dumbass who types in all caps and has 300 "friends". There are pleanty of intelligent and respectable people who use the service. If you blindly deny that, you're just a prick.
Just as yoyohed said below, I meant exactly what I wrote. What makes that so difficult to understand? I don't get what your "problem" is, actually. Do you think you're just plain _above_ the college students that use MySpace, just because you set up an ordinary Blogger page? The MySpace infostructure has tons of great functionality built in that it immensly useful. Why do you feel the need to critise other people in such an empty manner? I would have thought someone your age would have outgrone that kind of behavior... but then again, after reading your slashposts and your blog, and before seeing your pansy sihillowette, I would have guessed that you were a lot younger than you apparently are. Grow up and get a clue you asshole.
