(Ping timeout to server. Reconnecting. You may have have missed a few seconds of messaging.)

A ping is a little demon that's sent scurrying through the Internet. If it gets to you, it steals your soul. Then it jumps back into the Internet, scurries back home, and tells it's evil master how long it took to steal the soul.
Apparently, right now, the nasty little ping is getting lost.

im scared!!!!! plz somebody protect me!!!!
American music is so interesting :P There's a song currently playing and it fits the situation on here perfectly; Lonely, I'm so lonely. I have no body, on my own. Forgive me about that, just needed to interact with the community a little D:

Maelstrom
April 5 2006 11:56 PM EDT

hehe romance, that song is reallllly wierd, dont worry, not all american music is that odd. my sister played me that one for the first time the other day, i was like what the heck...i guess that artists name is akon or something like that
Rizz
April 5 2006 11:58 PM EDT
Akon - Lonely
it's made the top charts it's pretty good. his other songs are better though.
oh alright! I was surprise to hear an artist with such a child like voice on the radio D:

April 6 2006 12:04 AM EDT
wat song?
Maelstrom
April 6 2006 12:13 AM EDT
Ugh. That song. I just realized what you were talking about. \me shudders...
It's not a child's voice, it's a vocal effect.

April 6 2006 12:14 AM EDT
oh no..not that

belated april fools?
Chat Blender 3.1.7 starting...
When the chat window was loading it said it was loading from the google thing Timberwolf was talking about. I never downloaded it so I'm guessing its on the server or something

The problems I was having with the google-analytics should have no wide spread effect on chat like this.
Verifex nailed it earlier when he said my problem was, I finally reached the threshold of Java I could run at one time.
I have the google-analytics script disabled and cannot get to chat either, so I highly doubt that has anything to do with it.
ahhhhhhhh the apocalypse is here....
/me sees flashbacks of cb1s constant chat dieing

I don't know anything about why chat is screwed up, but what I would like to know is why AKBuz wishes he was his sister?!?

There's this "Restart the chat server" that full admins can push in cases of emergency ('now' sounds like a good time). Problem is that the admin page containing that button won't load right now (browser is still loading it for 10+ minutes, with nothing to show this far). Maybe it won't load because it first checks how many users are in chat right now, and that page is also waiting (very patiently) for the chat server to provide that answer?
Anyway, it sounds like we have to wait for Jon on this one.

Thanks for the update, Bart. ;)
Oh, great. Full admin + Restart chat server button + the page containing the button hardly even loading = possible bad stuff to happen on the server. Just great.

You're over analyzing, Seran. Wait until Jon gets on the problem before you start hyperventilating.
*mutters something in Japanese and hangs his head in shame*
This sort of bites.

April 6 2006 2:11 AM EDT
yea, your taking things to seriously seran, just relax.
YOU
April 6 2006 2:16 AM EDT

*carps YOU* You've gone psycho.
YOU
April 6 2006 3:47 AM EDT
i know i know i am sorry. I saw too many: Ping timeout to server.
so..... why does Jon gotta be asleep at 348 AM :)
Flamey
April 6 2006 4:15 AM EDT
yea i though he was nocturnal, strange isnt it?
must be the whole family thing....
bartjan
April 6 2006 4:36 AM EDT
Jon lives in MDT, not EDT...
*sighs, hangs his head in shame and carps himself twice*
I've gone and made myself stupid.
and i thought it was my dumb screwed up pc but its not, so i don't have to hit again, it already have enough bumps :/

wow it looks like this thread is turning into chat lolololol
lets start talking then TSCM :p something has to be able to talk to my , lets call it my fellow cb2er's

April 6 2006 7:27 AM EDT
So i'm guessing, Jon absent + Chat not loading + cb'ers not get blending + my itchy + that jerk ping = a great boost in other online games?
IndependenZ
April 6 2006 7:28 AM EDT
Probably, YNM :p
But fighting an everything is working as it should, right? I haven't seen any difference except for the chat thing. :)
Chat not loading = more 'Blending, not less, and a ten-fold spike in CMs.

April 6 2006 7:32 AM EDT
Ah, but who's here for the fighting? Hell i don't even think i'm here for the chatting...wait a second...

2 ping timeouts...then nothing...
Would like to take this time and ask Seran and Shadowking to go to carnage when the chat server comes back. Sandy I know you have been there, but when I'm still telling you to stay there seems we've lost our understanding. Maybe this post will finally push the overstated point. Both can come back if/when there is a question to be answered and leaving promptly afterwards. Names to put on the imaginary np watch list would be scy(false info) Agoth, Someb, and Skc. Don't need to give the whole names if you're in the know. All have been given the requested move at different times, for the right reasons given what was happening at the time. All of you which are bored to tears and giving their parents something to ph34r. Believe I interrupted a midnight pg session between agoth and someb the other night since only bart was alive and afk if this helps convey a veiw. Not to be taken as seriously as stated.
