5. No, maybe the posts aren't moving as
fast because people are gearing up to see you in the bunnysuit.

Will you be wearing a tie dye under the bunnysuit or all natural?

7. No problem here, but NSMA says that she can't even click on your thread...
to tell you how slow it is, so it must be some interim servers slowing everyone down... No problem from here in Florida.

10. Yes, it took me 5 minutes
just to get to a screen to post. It's been like this for about 30 minutes on my end. All other sites are loading and responding normally.

I thought it was just my crappy dial-up! However, I tried a few other sites, and they loaded at the normal speed, while DU is really dragging!

45. It's been very slow a couple times today but seems fine now.
I figured it was probably a denial of service attack by freeper hackers. Their hackers seem to better than ours, if we have any.
