We are making some changes to our configuration to increase our users' security. Right now we are waiting for our DNS to update and until that happens the content on the site will not load. We apologize for this, but we want to ensure no other users have their accounts jeopardized. The content may come back online for different people as the different DNS servers around the world update. So it migh tbe working for some people now, and others might have to wait up to 24 hours.

Some people are so lucky !
I hope it doesn't take up to 24 hours for me (even if it's very probable, since I live in France !), I would be losing loads of stuff, movies, and everything ! I am currently in need of watching some of the entries in the Front Page ! lol.
Anyways, I might catch up on posts and stuff like that even though it's not as great as watching movies and playing games :(


I play lottery. I always lose.

LOOK at my CAR VIDEOS on YouTUBE !!

Doesn't work in Finland at this moment.

I got a nutty idea for a different TOP-50.
Since the votingsystem kindof encourages pointhunters to vote 0 or 5, we might enjoy another kind of top 50 that can be directly controlled by active users.
It would work by constructing the top 50 from flashes that exist in people's favorite animations list.
For example:
- Love Hine simdate -appears on 2 people's favorite list so it gets score of 2
- Arfenhouse teh movie too -appears on 90 people's favorite list so it gets score of 90
I would suggest that placement of a flash in someone's top 50 would not affect score, so that people wouldn't have to spend hours trying to sort their entries in the correct order, unless two movies share the same rank.
How about it ? I've already rebuilt my top entries, not so sure about the correct order tho. Except for number 1.

Hmm, i just read the topic about malicious content, and this one, and i was wondering, what affects who will be able to view submissions first, and how the fuck some dickhead managed to do this. i was also wondering, if it has affected authors abilites to submit content, as i am about to finish my third flash(my other two got blammed), and wish to upload it soon.

Response to Portal Down 2004-01-18 10:28:53


Well thanks for the update that is good news.
