My ISP was down. 2001-03-07 23:11:10


Not that I have to explain myself, or need to justify why I wasn't replying on a regular basis, but here's why.

I was changing ISP, and was also really busy for a few days, so I couldn't get in touch with them. That's why I was only using the net on the weekends, at my parents' house.

Anyhow...

You better start posting, f00, or you will be eliminated!

I had noticed things had gotten rather quiet on your end...

I wish I could post more too, but I haven't had the time. This week was a really good time for the BBS, all of a sudden the place just came alive. Gun control, school shootings and God. Also, that Ravano guy seems like an interesting fellow. (I would love to see Shorbe and him battle it out on some issue.) ^_^

I should be able to go on a posting frenzy sometime this weekend.

BTW: Shrapnel is missing too! I'm fairly sure he's bogged down in school stuff too.

P-Chan: I think it would be interesting too if he and I went head to head. In many ways, we're similar, and we have a similar approach to how we argue.

I'm MIA because I can't view the BBS old messages in Nutscrape- IE does not work on my computer anymore.
I just installed Win2000 a week ago and have the newest version of IE with all the patches....

I have no clue what's wrong...
Newgrounds always crashes my browser.

Any clue?

I miss chatting with you guys.

Definately....
I hate using Nutscrape- I can't go to the older archived BBS news so I don't bother posting b/c what's the point when you
can't read the replies to your messages!!!!

There's so much action during the day and living on the West Coast, I'm lagged behind the Eastern posts which also
tend to scroll off stuff I want to reply to...

Frustrating....

Work IE damnit work!

Get mIRC, so you can chat.

As for Netscape, and the BBS, I have a problem also. If I click on say, page two of a topic list (for instance, in the General section), it sends me back to the main menu for the BBS.

You can get around this though. The end of the link should read id1&page=2

If you type that manually onto the end of the address, it should work.

I don't know if that is the nature of that problem, but it's worth a try.

I had mIRC before I formatted everything...
I'll find sometime to reinstall it again.

Like that? I've tried it before and it doesn't work.
But if you have Netscape and it works for you, I must be doing something wrong....
What version are you using?
4.76 is the one I'm using.

Thanks for you help though.

My ISP has been really screwy lately too.

Shrapnel: No idea which version mine is.
