Around 8 o'clock last night I was sitting down to do homework for midterms this week and I opened up my internet browser, and....nothing. Just a blank white page staring me in the face. I figured the internet was down in the whole dorm so I waited. 11 o'clock rolled around and the same old story...no internet. So I call my ISP and tell them and they run some diagnostic tests with me. I open up a new browser and they tell me to type in PBS.org to test another site to see if it works. Sure enough, it does. I tried everyother site and they all worked great, except the FORVM.
Could have been doing HW all night but I really thought I had no internet. How retarded of me.
I wondered what was up.. I was checking my virus scanner and changing my settings to see why it wouldn't let me on. I thought the next step was convulsions... lol.. I sipped some storm to ward these off, but wasn't sure how long I could take it.

Let nothing stop you from going to the gym and training hard! Even if you were to break every bone in your body a true gym warrior would still find something to train.
I was very sad...and bored...!! I had to resort to txting Forvm members! Or bugging them on MySpace...=D

I tried last night 10/16/08 around 9:30 before heading to bed, and it wasn't working!
Then I had to come to work and it wasn't working all day for me, just frigen sucks because this the ONLY (besides myspace) place I post and bullshit on because that is how much I love it!
I don't even post on BB.com, TNation, or any other forum's except this FORVM that is how much I love this place
At least it's back up for the work day. Seriously, how many people out there spend half their time at work on the forvm? I don't how I'd make it to 5pm if the forvm was down. Now that I think about it I'd actually get some work done around here.
When life gives you lemons say fuck the lemons and bail.
Whatever the reason was for the site being down, I'm just happy its back up again.
I had to stay the whole day at the gym coz there was no FORVM to keep me company at home. And I owe the DSL people an apology. Thought it was their sucky network that was the coz of it all.
I put out an APB on another site to see whatw had happened and my first text in the morning was from firsthorseman wondering WHAT he was going to do all day at work....LOL We suffered, were all lost and had to adjust our habits, but most of all we realized how important this Forvm is to us...
As I stated before...
To the "server gawds" in cyberspace.... WE'RE NOT WORTHY!!!
