Well, what is - they should not be down for such a long time this near to the biggest Apple Keynote in History!

    It's not their fault. It's the ISP's fault.

    Just go to #OrangeInsider on irc.webchatting.com if AI is down.

    AI always goes down around keynote time. Sometimes for several days. One time, it was gone so long, I thought we had killed it Get used to it. Now, where can we go to get updates if we can't watch the webcast?

    But now we're on a different server so AI shouldn't go down.

    • Much faster.

    • Moderatable. Now we can make sure that some troll doesn't ruin the chat.

    • You can register your nick. No more impersonators.

    • Banning, kicking. Can't do this with AIM.

    and many more things.. styles.. scripts (protection, any other scripts that disrupt the room aren't allowed)

    The front pages are on different servers from the Forums.



    I only vouch for the forums when I say they will not go down (unless the ISP gets DOS'ed again)
