Why in the world did you have to fail? Moreover, why do you keep failing? Does it humor you to fail? Were the people that installed you/run you so incompetant that you have to fail every other month? Do you freak out every time someone write questions like this?
Well?
I feel your pain, Governor.
Board outage =
Good time to take a walk.
Good time to call a friend ro family member and tell them you love them.
Good time to catch up on laundry.
Good time to grocery shop.
Good time to look for another board of specific interest so you don’t have to whine about this board being down.
Good time to catch up on bills, homework, cleaning…
Good time to read a book.
Good time to catch a movie.
Good time to evaluate your dependence on the SDMB.
Good time to wash the car.
Good time to invite a friend over to drink beer and learn to knit.
Good time to…
yeah, there is life outside the SDMB.
Sounds like a Compaq server running McKesson software. . . at least, such has been my experience

Wow, i simuposted myself - has that ever been done before?
Only several time a day SR.
Is this thing up and working yet… at least a little?
Dude, its not the end of the world.
Bummer. I’d just completed an OP that cured cancer, made cold fusion practical, and exposed the true identity of Cecil Adams, too.
Oh! So you’re to blame…
techchick68, I’m going to pretend you didn’t say
. Heresey like that’ll get you banned, you know? 
I watched a very nice DVD of the Kim Novak/William Holden movie “Picnic.” A classic of the '50s. Nice movie. Great supporting cast and nice soundtrack.
I spent my time away from the boards productively. Aren’t you all proud of me? 
<phone rings>
Steve: Hello?
Me: Hey Steve, wanna come over for a few beers?
Steve: Yeah, sure. You watching the game?
Me: Well, I thought we could learn how to knit…

The people who installed it/run it do a damn good job of applying the shock paddles every time it has a heart attack due to being totally overtaxed day and night. And why do they do it? So that a bunch of largely over-educated smart-assed navel-gazers like the lot of us can be entertained. For free.
So watch who you’re calling incompetent, mkay?
Kal
Beer and knitting, surely there must be someone somewhere that does that?
I do that and crochet, all the while watching football!!
What? The boards were down… :eek:
You mean I sat here cussing my PC for (I don’t even know how long) and it wasn’t even to blame.
Damn, I gotta get a hobby.
I’m confused… Did the OP ever specifically single out the SDMB server (notoriously unreliable as I know it is)
I didn’t think so. The OP could quite easily apply to my firewall/file server… so slow at converting jpegs for my gallery! Or… or… the test server! When will this company realize that just because it has no users, it can’t be ignored for the production side!
Boo hoo. Well… it coulda been.
Meh, after the big board crash, everything else is like a blink of an eye.
Now if I could only get those 1200 posts back…
