2 hours.

So I don't think whatever is causing it is a result of any kind of undetected leak, anyway...

and we all just got booted from flashchat at 9:08

a real conversation killer

The management is currently looking into our options at this point, but since we all have full time real jobs, don't expect lightning speed changes.

At least for me, the website is very slow this morning. 5-20 seconds (random testing and "1 mississippi 2 mississippi" timing device) to display new threads. Delay may be longer for longer threads ("Let's make Friday joke day" took considerably longer to come up than a recent post with few threads).

I'm on a T-3 line so it's not my connection. Other web sites display normally.
