QUESTION: How slow was DU during the Debates for you?

[NYC_SKP]

I couldn't open a page at all during the last half hour.

Here are a few things we must do on election day to stay online:

1. I believe the server was down. Skinner already acknowledged it

These things happen.

8. I hadn't seen that, I quit for awhile. Here is skinner's comment for all...

for anyone else who missed it.

2. I'll bet it's NOT helpful that everyone post a new OP for every blink and twitch.

And nobody replies or discusses. I wonder if that really loads up the servers.

7. hmmmm now there's an idea...

9. In the past it's also been closed to non members, but I think we prefer not to

have to do that.

10. Oh, don't go there....I just got my ass handed to me because I said the same thing...

:eyes:

12. Oh, really? That's unfortunate.

Of course, they are wrong.

And even if it's not a burden on the system resources, it's rude to just blurt out original threads because on has a peabrain thought.

I prefer the "**********OFFICIAL DEBATE THREAD*********", but didn't see any of those as DU was down...

15. TY...needed that.

It was kinda like being locked out of your house and then going around trying to open the windows you already know are locked. :pals:

14. Server down.

I couldn't get on DU until 30 minutes after the debate.

Election night is going to be crazy!
