    i just kinda get the feeling from some of these posts that theres still kind of a rift tween the forums. i thot that was buried long ago. both got their benefits. for my forum'ing, i mostly post there, with the exception of PO i go here. and since this was on my way, i jumped in here.



    I just stumbled upon this thread because AN seems to be down at the moment. Anyway, I thought it was an interesting read. Nice to know what some who stuck around here think about those of us who migrated over there. And, for what it's worth, I was never in a frat (though I'm sadly a 30-something now... I wasn't at the time!).



    Anyway, bumping this thread just because it's not locked. And I feel like it.

    Yeah, I decided to take a look over here as well, with the 404 I'm getting over at AN. I guess no one has any answers yet. \

    Yeah. I've been working to get on there for a while too. I was looking for the other thread when AN had it's last issue but I couldn't find it either. Seems to have disappeared from the forum completely.



    Edit: Yep, they must have been deleted. My post count is only 1 and I've posted here when AN had issues last time. \

    Hey. Listen guys...this is not a playground to frolic in while your other place is wherever.



    Show some fucking respect.







    Although ... to pass the time ... I've got my scrotum *almost* over my head.

    I, too, have my scrotum almost over my head, so it gives me great pleasure to welcome our novite friends (and I post there from time-to-time) here while over there is 404'd and all gayed out.

    Oy vey.

    The nameservers are super-borked over at AN right now (hey all you active members of AI, I'm one of your senior classmates... been awhile since I've posted here ::waves:.





    I have a PDF of the DNS report for AppleNova right here:

    Suckage.



    Hassan, you didn't happen to chain your bike to AppleNova did you?

    All I did was lean it against 'nova while I tried to steal someone's girlfriend. I got into a fight and the next I knew someone was making off with the whole forum.



    I'm so sorry.

    Drew, since it's a nameserver issue, would we be able to get access with the IP?

    That's a possibility, but is there any way to get the IP with the nameservers all borked?

    Hey, why don't we all forget about it and make up? And just pretend it never happened, and be friends again?



    We can all live here, together.



    Like a proper family.

    The other place is prettier though. It'd be like moving back to an apartment that the landlord doesn't care about vs. a sparsely yet tastefully decorated house... that we've apparently lost the keys to.



    I suggest we all just go outside and think about what nice things we can do for our fellow humans.



    For example, I was just out walking the dog and I thought about helping an old lady chip ice off her sidewalk. That would've been nice for her! I'm going back outside to think of more.

    We can do it.



    It's Christmas.

    All I've been able to find out so far is that Admin "A" is on vacation at the moment, and I'm not sure how to get in touch with Admin "B".

    It's easier to read too.



    Not enough contrast with AI's forum design.

    We had a lively iChat going last night which was fun, but I miss AppleNova proper.

    ha...i wonder what my post count is here...did it reset to zero?...



    and yes i am a pre blackout AI human that hasn't been here in a while...hoping to find why another site is down...likely tied to the soon to be demise of thinksecret i assume...



    and i lurk here from time to time, but usually don't post...seems to be alot of overlap aways...and many post at both sites...



    but i admit i 99% stay at the other site mostly because two apple nerd sites is harder to keep track of than one apple nerd site...and i have my scooter nerd site to visit and my nintendo wii nerd site to visit...so that limits me some...only so much nerdiness to go around



    though i miss powerdoc and wish he would visit AN from time to time



    as for the 30 something frat remark, eh, i'll let it pass as i'm well past my 30's (sadly)...



    as for re-combining the two sites back into one...not a horrid idea...but it's not horrid having them split either...



    eh, whatever will be will be...



    happy holidays...hug and hold tight you loved ones...
