1. What was that all about? nt

[katmondoo]

28. I thought the Iran war had started

[KoKo]

34. I did too! And, figured DU was the first to report it...as it usually is

and folks were freaking out and busted the Server. :scared:

[Jack Rabbit]

36. When I couldn't get on to DU this morning, I checked the BBC

First of all, I got there. It wasn't my computer or my network provider.

Second, there was nothing to report but a bus bombing in Baghdad.

So I surmised it was DU's problem.

[Lone_Star_Dem]

2. It was getting scary.a

I thought the Adult Swim people were attacking DU! :hide:

[lonestarnot]

3. a Neil Young THANK GOD!

[Jeanette in FL]

Holy crap, that was awful. Thank God, in the Panic room, I saw that I wasn't the only one.

[Tuesday_Morning]

[solara]

12. What is the "Panic Room"? n/t

[karlrschneider]

20. It's at Yahoo. Here

[SoCalDem]

37. I miss the "immediacy" of the old "Panic chat room" on AIM

I have never been able to figure out the Yahoo format..
I have it bookmarked, but it's slow and boggy to use, so I don;t think I'ver ever posted on it.:)

The moe time I spend away from DU, makes it less "stressful" when it's down.. I rememebr how panicky I used to get, and nowadays, I just find something else to do :)

[karlrschneider]

39. Yeah, it is a little clunky but does serve one good purpose...lets us know we aren't

the only one who can't get to DU. :D

[Horse with no Name]

7. Whew

Now I don't have to pick up the Xanax refill I called in.:silly:

[helderheid]

8. LOL!

[hlthe2b]

9. only a handful at the Yahoo groups DU panic room...oops

ON edit, I wasn't seeing all the messages the way I had defaults set.... NEVER MIND!


Where were you? Is there a second panic room?

Oh, and WHAT HAPPENED?

[CabalPowered]

10. Ah my coffee tastes better already.

:donut:

[radfringe]

11. is there a panic room for the panic room?

unfortunatly the OS system on my work computer won't connect to the DU panic room

had to call my partner and have her try the DU to determine if it was a site problem or if it was a problem with my computer connection

[DURHAM D]

21. PANIC !!!

My first action when I could not get in after several attempts was to turn on the tv and see if we were at war. I am serious.

Finally, even though we are having wintry/mix storm and I did not need to go to the office - I came to my office because the Panic Room is under my favorites. Still could not get in.

Is there another PANIC ROOM?

[bananas]

30. It's an email list, so you can get it by email

There's an option somewhere to have messages emailed to you.
Also you can email messages to the list.

[tinfoilinfor2005]

13. I was beginning to wonder whether Skinner had paid the light bill...

Having a new baby in the house can tend to make one forgetful.

:rofl:

[anitar1]

14. i thought it was my computer, maybe.Certainly felt

adrift, not being able to get DU.

[karlrschneider]

15. Anyone know what happened?

...

[Jeanette in FL]

19. Message from Elad

Downtime this morning (Thursday, Feb. 1st) (Feb 01st 2007)
DU experienced a couple hours of downtime this morning due to server troubles, which have since been resolved.

We apologize for any inconvenience.

[underpants]

24. I guess I wasn't the only one

Whew

Thanks for the link

[C_U_L8R]

25. phew i was getting withdrawal symptoms

can't have my morning coffee without DU

[Donnachaidh]

26. Was it Meatwad or Shake that blew out DU this morning?

You can't trust Meatwad.:evilgrin: :bounce: :argh: :silly:

[tandot]

29. No sh*t...I had 46 emails of panicked DUers in my mailbox this morning

and I didn't even go to the panic room last night.

[mmonk]

31. Just added the DU Panic Room to my favorites list.

[InkAddict]

32. Bless me father, for I have sinned--

I thought that I may have broken the Internet. Went to bed with DU minimized and woke up 10 hours later with DU still sitting down there in the tray. Lurked around without problems, and then closed out and went to go get some coffee! When I came back to logon, DU was GONE, GONE, GONE! At first I feared the worst, then that my ISP had finally succumbed to censorship of the site of my cyberaddiction since everything else seemed to work OK. The guilt was terrible. Apparently, confession IS good for the soul. Prayer answered; DU's back and I really didn't break it afterall. PHEW! Now, onto the donation page to put $$ where my mouth is!

[ChiciB1]

35. I Thought Something Spectacular Happened So I Changed My TV

channel to see what it was! I was HOPING beyond HOPE! All I saw was 2 guys getting arrested for what went on in Boston yesterday!

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

38. Yeah! It was great to check my Ommm email sent from the panic room and know that I wasn't alone.

I joined the 12 step program there!

:hi:
