Pathetic Frontpage Currently at DU: HELLO! Due to the massive influx of people this morning, we are experiencing serious problems with server overload. The forums were shut down at 11:00AM ET. Feel free to check back every half hour or so. But please don't hit the "refresh" button on your Web browser every 5 seconds, or we'll never come back online.

Sorry for the inconvenience. Use the free time to do something constructive. It's not healthy to sit inside stewing over last night's loss. Go for a walk outside. Or call an old friend. It will make you feel better.

Sounds like a plan.

They aren't very bright over there. They have taken the Forums link down on their homepage but if you click on "Articles", the menu refreshes with the Forum link active.

Either that, or click here.

Yeah, yeah, yeah....

They shut down because their minions are melting like Soviet reactor cores and certain people on a certain site are having way too much fun watching.

maybe the DU croud need to be advised to forget about politics. It isn't their strong suite anyway.

You know, a coin or paperclip shoved down next to your F5 key can refresh a page indefinitely while you're away from your computer, and you can set 'key repeat speed' as slow as needed on your Control Panel, to ensure that each hit has time to register on the site... but of course, that would be unethical. Or something.

The funny thing is they never got over that loss. Or the one two years before it. How long will it take them this year?
