*** DU will be down for an extended period of time starting Saturday 12/12 @ 8PM ET *** [View all]
Our long-awaited DU server upgrade is finally happening this weekend. Elad and the other admins have been working hard the last few months to prepare to move the site into a new, cutting-edge web server -- just in time for the 2016 presidential campaign.
We have a massive amount of data we need to move over to the new server, and a long list of other things to do, so you should expect the site to be offline for an extended period of time. Downtime will begin at 8PM ET (5PM PT), and will likely continue through Sunday and possibly into Monday.
We have made every effort to make the transition as smooth as we can. But once the site is back online we will undoubtedly encounter some unexpected glitches and bugs. Hopefully they will be minor (fingers crossed). We want to thank you in advance for your patience, and for your help identifying any problems.
Skinner, EarlG, and Elad

I wonder how many crazy uncle bernie supporters will be lost. :naughty:

Get your favorite DU silly thread up and running.

They're upgrading their VTE steampunk server to steam turbine? Coooool!

Okay, this is news to me.
I thought DU2 was the final word.

He's leaving the primitives with no island on which to frolic for at least 36 hours? This is not good for the rest of the country. I expect drug use, child molestations, and petty crime to increase significantly in neighborhoods resided in by the primitives.

The primitives will actually have to come out of their basements, will give their mom's a chance to change their sheets.

As long as she doesn't remove the cool fort the DUmmies made out of all the empty pizza boxes.

Hmmm.
Saturday evening into maybe Monday morning, Skins's island'll be under water.
Maybe the primitives, with nothing else to do, will stop by and visit here.

This is the third time DU has upgraded.

Oh no, not at all. The most intolerant will head over to DU Jr and spend their time trying to ban all the conservatives.

I will have to wander over there later and check it out. I would be willing to bet none or few of them will use their DU name there. Too easy to make fun of if they do. It would be fun if they did though!

I assumed DU and DU Jr. shared the same server.
