The DUmpster is, temporarily, a closed forum.
It's open to all registered members, obviously, but closed to guests.
It'll get back to being a public forum soon.
So save your ammunition if you want to jab the primitives or any particular primitive, until it's public again.
Otherwise, carry on. Everybody does good work.

Hmmmm, this hasn't happened before during my tenure here that I can remember. Quite odd.

Not spreading anything around, maybe it does sound like a hacking.

No, it was a simple mistake.

It was done on purpose, so as to lighten traffic while this other issue's being dealt with.
Obviously it's not water-tight, but it's reasonably water-tight.
The first clue I got was when I checked "users online" and found just about every "guest" was "viewing portal," meaning they were at the front page and getting no further.
Then I got a personal message from a prominent member of freerepublic, charles henrickson of the DUmmie FUnnies, who registered this morning because as a "guest" he was finding the DUmpster not available to him.
Finally, I noticed there's a lot of members here known to be from Skins's island who, instead of just lurking as "guests," were having to sign on using their little-used accounts here.
So then I inquired.
There's more brainpower working on this, than what'd been involved with the Manhattan Project of the 1940s; I'm sure it's going to be cleared up.....and in the meantime, be appreciative that they're allowing conservativecave to remain open, whereas usually the practice is to say "sorry," and shut it down while a problem's dealt with.
So kudos to them.

Chris_- Ah, I thought the Stinky feline finally TOTALLY lost his marbles. Silly of me to think the gross cat primitive would be capeable of such things.
Frank- Glad we're still up, and running. I'm sure more in depth explanation/disscussion will be had once everything is situated.

No, nothing malicious.
Odin's Hand and I were here watching it as it happened.
Just an error on this side, no outside forces.

Well, it's working.
Here it is, 2:00 p.m. central time, 1:00 p.m. mountain time, and traffic today's been way down, which puts less pressure on the guys in the hot seat. Usually we have the numbers we have right now, about 6-8 hours before, on a typical day.
It's all good.
Has anyone noticed if the primitives have commented upon this phenomenon yet? Of course, they can't really mention us, but sometimes they use "code."

Just fess up man, the cat did it, didn't he?

^ The stinky, basement dwelling cat, I believe he means.

No, the cat that Chris adopted.

Okay, this announcement no longer in force.
Thank you everybody for your patience.
The lurking primitives, those who couldn't before, can now see the DUmpster again.
