Random Rants XXXVII: The Server Is Too Busy

[rugbyLEAGUEfan]

Well if it's any consolation , if you like it when your profile gets a viewing , I'd expect the count to see a noticeable spike .

My only friend reminded me of a memory and loss that I had tried for over a year to bury in my mind and had actually succeeded in.

I have been an emotional wreck all day.

LE SIGH.

Let the ranting about the busy server commence

Only friend? But what about all of us here?

I wanted to read 'Maurice' by E.M Forster, but the last copy was sold today in the entire country of Singapore.

I've made a meme of using the term "Enerjak" on the STCO forums. The manchildren in charge have banned the word and it is now autocensored accordingly.

Further proof they are immature, irresponsible and by no means ready to be professional moderators:

One of their mods warned me about posting for post count, though I always post in depth posts, never mind it's hard to judge it. Let's not ignore trolling and flaming abound despite that being against their rules. Oh and, apparently posting for post count - even if I post a lot of stuff in each post - is bad, but the fact one of the regulars posts nothing but image macros is perfectly fine. Yet that counting towards his PC is fine.

Times like these make me wonder WHY I wander that forum. Their moderator team is bonkers.

What's even funnier is there's a poster named Shaker there who was banned ages ago and everyone openly complains about it. I'm amazed he was banned at all considering their team is about as good at moderating as Somalia is at controlling piracy.

I got "the server is too busy" notice while trying to view this thread. Pretty actually!

By massive coincidence, I saw someone buying a copy of Maurice in my local bookshop today. Unfortunately, I don't live in Singapore.

Now, Im more sad than angry.

Cruel faiths! You mock me through Arakhor!

 

[Arakhor]

Well, on the off-chance you ever wanted to leave Singapore, you could come to my local bookshop here in the Cotswolds.

Yesterday the people form my local gamestore told me that they would have Crusader Kings 2 on the shelves starting today but they don't

 

[Takhisis]

Arakhor, I believe your post above would be amended by aronnax to 'Fortunately, I don't live in Singapore'.

 

[Arakhor]

Wouldn't that be a rave though?

Damn it Tani, quit making Enerjak a meme!! He's not Millhouse!!

Be glad you're not in facepunch, they've got the zanyest moderators there (I never entangled with them, this is just based on my observations)

Had to repeat a procedure 3 times and spilled a box of tips all over the floor. Today's just not my day.

Weddings are expensive and a total pain in the butt to plan. I wish I was rich so I could pay somebody else to deal with all of this crap.

Also, I'm struggling finding somebody to take over my lease. One of your OTers should move into my old apartment in Chicago so I don't have to deal with it anymore.

Hitting the F5 button repeatedly each time a Server is too busy has become second nature to me |:|.

Then don't get married.
