There's a bunch of the traffic directing servers down in northern North America today. If you're trying to reach DU and one of them is between you and them you'll get an error.

http://www.internettrafficreport.com/namerica.htm

The info at that link will change about every 15 minutes or so but when I posted this 2 are down in Canada, 1 in NH, 1 in Texas, 1 in WS and one in NV is damn near down at 12% capacity. It looks like the north is going to be funky today. If you're brave you can dig into your browser settings and extend your time and attempts that it'll try to resolve an addy. You might get rerouted the longer way around.  But the lag and response times will be like molasses in the cold. :-)

This has me thinking Anon got to them. If they are insulted, they like to do shit for "the lulz." It would be completely sweet if this is what happened, actually. Can't think of a more deserving group. However, I would ALSO kind of like to stroke my own ego for revealing what the idiot unterprimitiven did to affront Anon... :-)

We're having a problem with our DNS company, so that democraticunderground.com doesn't resolve to the proper nameserver, which should be ns1.dca.net. We're on the phone with them trying to resolve this now.

Ya really got to wonder what the 1000+ posters are handling this. Its not like they are welcome on the net.
Maybe this is a Union plot to force them out of their basements and into the streets.

Kinda like an insane asylum releasing its patients without warning.

I'll bet my fellow alum Skins is sweating bullets.

Remember, Skins was hired to keep the whackos, the weirdos, the nuts, the willful idiots, corralled on Skins's island, out of public view, lest they damage the reputation of the Democrat party and its candidates.

And now suddenly they can't get on the island.

I'm sure the prospect of Doug's stupid ex-wife or Pedro Picasso roaming at will all over the internet, unsupervised, spewing their stupidities all over, fills my fellow alum with fear and dread.

I'm thinking a casual purge of threads would be in order about now. Khaddaffy and their golden boy Hugo are very close.... too close.

Glad we are back up and running. Tried to use the Google to find out what happened and got linked to the Freepers...so I had to look and they think Anonymous took down DU :) isn't that a hoot!

Nice to see you too, ass wipe. Actually, I wouldn't be surprised. And if you want to call me out, come here, and do it to my face. Coward.

The lous is also most likely lying about what he did. Chances are he craved differing opinions, and moseyed on over here to see what we were saying. Nice bouncy though.

PS, idiot: Did you actually see WHY I thought Anon took down your shitty little forum? Go back and read. Enlighten yourself.
