More of that heavy-handed moderation; he deleted the site in outrage for someone's double-posted comment.

I think Matt saw this and pulled the plug again:

Oh great #1, care to explain the server issues?

Apparently it's collapsing under the weight of all the images posted in comments.

I know this because these two got deleted from a thread that was a double post:

I have all this data, and there isn't even a document that doesn't contain it.

DNS gateway is down? WTF?

Anyone try raising it by IP number?

No problems here.

Probably used the microwave near the pacemaker again.

I'm afraid at this point we're looking at serious brain damage. I'm sorry.

I note that MeCha seems to be lagging a bit, presumeably under the load of bored MeFites with no where else to go. I wonder how MoFi is doing?

It'd be interesting to see where the traffic that wants to go to MeFi ends up going when MeFi has passed out from all the outrage and finger pointing and comment-in-your-facing.

Oh my god I'm sooooooooo bored and at work and drowsing off in the field-effect white noise hum of dozens of cooling fans. Though, I think if MeFi were up I'd still be bored for once, but still... aaaah!!

*yawns, stretches, sips coffee furtively, slaps self in face, yawns again*

I think I slept too much. I went to bed early, got about 6 hours of sleep, woke up, answered some emails and had a smoke or two, laid down again reading Gibson's Count Zero for the first time in years, fell asleep, and woke up again 6 hours later.

*yawns again*
