Free Republic has crashed and burned.

[sufrommich]

I was really looking forward to lurking and gloating tonight. Was it suicide?

[Haole Girl]

1. God, I hope so. (nt)

[MNDemNY]

2. Spontaneous combustion, most likely.

[MikeE]

3. They were all raptured away

O8) :evilgrin:

[uppityperson]

5. Damn, does that mean an influx here now?

[crazy_vanilla]

:rofl:

[Engineer4Obama]

6. Sweet sweet poetic justice

[Orsino]

7. The servers have been piled against the doors as a makeshift barricade. n/t

[bushisanidiot]

22. Oh shit! That was damn funny. ;)

.

[hillary]

8. They're baaaack

[valerief]

9. You mean, it's no more?

It's too icky for me to try to link to.

[EFerrari]

11. Comes up fine for me.

I want them to be up and running tonight because I'm a bad, bad girl.

lol

[sufrommich]

20. Must be me then, won't come up at all. nt

[EFerrari]

31. I'm on my backup machine which won't load everything other site I need.

LOL! Such great luck I can load freakerville!

:)

[bitchkitty]

32. Me too! But I can only get the front page,

anything I click on, I get a server error.

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

13. They must have all emulated themselves on the Newport Beach pier

[corkhead]

14. I just dipped my toe in that sespool, and unfortunately, it is still there.

[workinclasszero]

15. Rimjob knows a shit-storm of epic proportions is coming tonight

He prolly took it down himself! :rofl:

[zbdent]

30. wait ... does this mean that

all the threats of killing Democrats and liberals might actually be looked into, as opposed to the past 8 years of the authorities not only turning a blind eye to the shenanigans, but partaking in them?

[Two Sheds]

16. If I had to guess, I'd say they all convinced themselves they were...

going to win at the same time and their "rapture" moment blew their server.

[mrcheerful]

17. Nah they crashed around 7am this morning too then were back

some time after 8 when I saw a post on freak land again. Btw, freak land proof that after birth is also a human life.

[RobertSeattle]

18. Slow but back up now - they most have reset their telephone modem

:evilgrin:

[LoKnLoD]

21. They were conjecturing that they were getting hacked earlier..LOL

But that one server running in some guys mom's basement powered by a gerbil on a wheel can only take so much traffic.

[Ian David]

23. They're re-loading the program from their TRS-80 n/t

[jazzjunkysue]

29. Mom put a roast in the oven and blew her hair dry and he lost power.

He killed his mother and he's back online, now.

[OnceUponTimeOnTheNet]

24. It's up, but slow. Where is their backup on Yahoo?

I remember once when their site went down, the DU was posting that back up link for them. They thanked this site for that when FR went back up. I think it must have been back in 2004. ? That's DU, Classy!

[hvn_nbr_2]

25. Tears + beer + electronics = bzzzzttt. nt

[Berry Cool]

26. Someone threw water on them and they melted.

At least I hope that's all it was. Do not believe the rumors you heard about large tubs of grape drink.

[Mark E. Smith]

27. Nate forgot to pay the electric bill

No conspiracy, the guy is just a deadbeat.

[Feron]

28. Obama's landslide is dawning upon them and..

the FR server committed suppku.
