I would rather miss the Times or the Journal for a day.  It underlines how much I enjoy the relationships I have built up over the years with so many of the people who post here, or advertise here, or review here.  
Who would have thunk?

To access the site still not up for me on the computer.
I am on my phone.

I get an error that says server unavailable. Yet, I can find the server and log in using a VPN with an out of Country IP address. WTF.

what's up with the limited access its been hit or miss for me since yesterday???

They just don't love us.

I was thinking just like backpage we were the next hit but the servers are hosted outside the country.  Granted they want to get us but they are not on US soil.

We are doing some upgrades in preparation for the beta general release. It is sporadic but will hopefully be completed in a few hours.

....multiple times in the past 24 hours.

engaged in some form of illegal activity associated with the hobby, we should always remain cool, but cautious, and not let paranoia consume our thoughts just because something has changed temporarily.  As TER upgrades their site for the benefit of all of use there are likely to be multiple periods of interrupted service, which will prove to be a small inconvenience compared to the enhanced service we get from the new beta version.

I was panicked !!

They can't shut the site down, but will there be a Big Brother increase in policing it?

TER finally came back on. The withdrawals are strong. Is there a TER rehab?

He has banned immigrants from the Nether regions.

But then I realized there was no place to tell my fellow addicts. This was a long time between fixes. Welcome back my comrades.

And was just generally grumpy when I couldn't get on TER.  

...I gained access and logged in about an hour ago for the first time since yesterday morning. Even my e-mail to admin came back as undeliverable.
