I hate when I can’t sleep, and I’m up at 4 am scrolling through the message boards, and then the damned boards go down for maintainance. What else am I supposed to do at 4 in the morning???
Sure, it’s a time when not a lot of people are inconvienenced, but what about me???
Grr.
Hey, when the Boards go down, I just go look at some porn. Then I come back twenty minutes later with a nice boner, ready to participate in an MPSIMS thread or two.
Um, aren’t the boards down for about five minutes (in almost all cases, it’s less than ten minutes)? Heck, I’m impatient, but not THAT impatient.
I know–I’m usually up that late ('course, in California, it’s “only” 1:30 am).
What’s mildly annoying is when it’s down for a bit more than five minutes and I lose all my “unread” red envelopes (my ability to go right to the “first unread post”).
I don’t like it, but I deal with it.
On the other hand, if I was up at 4:30 in the morning, I’d probably be in a bad mood whether I had a reason to be or not.
I always have at least three windows open in Netscape…I browse the net and post at the same time. I also keep a book handy since my computer likes to freeze up a lot.
