…we’re back! :::runs in, breathless::::
Man, that was painful. I actually had to pay attention in class!
Anyway, looks like I’m one of the first ones back…check in here and let me know you’re alive!
Yup
Don’t tell me all the old posts are eaten?
Howdy.
Well, I’ll be go to hell!..
I thought it would take weeks to get back on.
Nice to be back!
They’re still there. You’re just not seeing the because they’re all over a day old.
Ah, that’s better.
Unless…the hamsters got REALLY hungry.
TalkingHead is having problems posting still, so maybe they’re stealth hamsters now…
Don’t let Res fool you into believeing that he was paying attention in class because the boards were done… We’ve found new ways to distract ourselves in class… like playing buzzword Bingo and the infinite time drain of instant messenging!!!
Sigh.
Last night, after midnight Pacific time, I got an e-mail notification about the “Something’s-messed-up” thread.
I had a couple day’s worth of posts eaten. Sigh. So now my count is only a hundred or so short, what with the loss a couple years ago.
“Registered in May 2001”, indeed!
I got a nice reception in alt.fan.cecil-adams, for all those of you who need an extra outlet for Doping. Talk about fast browsing!
Oh - my - God. Hell on Earth. I had to resort to playing Solitaire at work.
Ah…it’s good to be back. Two days without lurking in my favorite message board was certainly painful
It didn’t seem hellish, but I did feel a twinge of desperation when I noticed the board was down…
I got my daily fix over at the G’Dope board.
Didn’t miss you lot at all 
Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!
God, I was getting withdrawal jitters!
I remember the mounting horror I was feeling that fateful night… I had posted a(nother) reply to the “authors you just don’t get” thread in Cafe Society, and I noticed that my reply hadn’t bumped the thread up, and it said that I wasn’t the last poster. Yet when I clicked on it, my post was there…
Then I checked early the next morning, and there was a bunch of posts that started threads… and it said “0” replies, but when I opened them, they’d have a dozen or two replies…
Something fishy…
And then… and then… :gasping sob: IT WAS GONE FOR DAYS! :weeps:
But now I’m back, and rejoicing!
I had a blinding headache for 2 days. It was, however, unrelated to the board being down, and I have some loverly Vicodin to ease my pain.
I think the hamsters like me. It was so nice of them to bring down the board so that I wouldn’t miss anything. 
Man, that sucked. I actually had to read for my classes instead of fiddling around on here! When it comes down to the Dope or “The Mabinogion”, I’ll choose Dope every time.
Is… is it over?
