When FR Goes Down...A Place To Go (Live Chat)
Radio FR ^ | October 2, 2004 | sweetliberty

Posted on 10/02/2004 5:07:27 PM PDT by sweetliberty

When FR breaks, it's serious news, so even though I didn't post to "breaking" news, I thought this information belonged on the main forum. Jim said that he anticipates that FR will be offline again tonight for up to 8 hours. Some of you are aware that there is a Radio FR chat room, hosted by Agitator. You can come in and log in with your own screen names, or whatever you want. I don't know how many the room will accommodate. I've seen it pretty full at election time. Anyway, just wanted everybody to have the link bookmarked where you can access it when FR goes dark later.

Radio FR Chat room.

There's no show tonight, but sometimes Agitator plays music. He's been working on the equipment too though, so no guarantees.

Come on in and put your feet up. Hopefully it'll help take the edge off when the shakes start setting in.

Seriously, when FR is down I don't see much point to even having an internet.

Don't forget the Yahoo forum, that's where a lot of Freepers go when the main site is down.

We all were. For once, I think those that had to work today were blessed. Although, I don't work well on the days I don't have my FReep fix with my coffee.

"Don't forget the Yahoo forum."

I'm not trying to discourage anyone, or even making any kind of comment on the Yahoo thing, but I did go there today and a while later got a really ungly email so I don't think I'll do that again.

John's adding 3 servers. Jim said we'd be down up to 8 hours tonight again. Rathergate seems to be getting us slammed big time!

Starting withdrawals already? LOL!

He didn't say exactly. Any idea yet, Jim?

He'll probably get started sometime after 10:00pm Pacific.

It's true!

When FR is down, I don't see the point of going on line.

Fortunately, Instapundit, Polipundit, National Review Online are starting to fill the void.

However, they are shallow and unsatisfactory substitutes for FreeRepublic.

For some reason when I tell my wife about this she starts to cry. Not sure why...
