So, is the site relatively fucked for everyone else, too?

Thread Starter 
Occasionally, things will go back to normal, but since about 11, it's been a fairly constant stream of "Site not responding"/"Connection has been lost" messages. Anything we should know about?

Yea, I've had to reload nearly all the pages multiple times to get it to finally load. So you aren't the only one.

I sometimes call the site waitingforchud.com. it was more often before the revamp, but it still happens from times to times.

The site's been a lot slower for me since the revamp, but lately it's just buggered all to hell.

We're getting hammered on the Ripcord pic, I think. The host is working on it.

One day last week was the same. I've tried to send this message a few times already.

Guess I'll do some work.

You clearly underestimate the power of the outdated 80's cartoons fanboys, Tati.

Don't. It might get you in the end.

So duke_fleed has taken down Chud then?

And wasn't this photo leaked like weeks ago? Should it really be causing that much of a hammer?

Huh, the Ripcord pic. I was of the mind that some of the anti-spoiler people were DDoSing, to protect others from sharing their fates.

Does this happen to you guys?

Whe you go to a forum thread and go to the top, does the page suddenly go back to the bottom automatically? Does that to me all the time, since the reboot.

I don´t know if this is the funniest or scariest thing I have heard in quite a while. So Duke Fleed killed CHUD finally now?

ETA: What Mike said.

Yeah, it's pretty weird that a new image from a highly anticipated movie would get a lot of hits.

Off topic, but where did your sig line come from Devin? It makes me laugh in a sad way everytime I read it.

Blame my perception. Not in my wildest dreams would I have thought that GI Joe would qualify as a highly anticipated movie. But that might very well be due to the fact of me being European and not even realizing that this was actually a huge thing for a lot of people in their youth. On second thought, I blame Astrid Lindgren.

Previously leaked photo. Of Marlon freaking Wayans. For a movie largely only anticipated by duke_fleed.

What Jan said.
I had no clue G.I. Joe was highly anticipated. I thought it was universally reviled.

Shockingly, you have no clue what you're talking about, as evidenced by the massive number of hits the page is getting right now.

Hopefully that translates into ad revenue for you guys then.

Site occasionally doesn't work for me but one refresh fixes her up nice.

I'm also guessing there's a hotlinking extravaganza going on right now.

You were honestly expecting a surge of hits because of an 80's cartoon remake by the guy who directed The Mummy? I guess you probably get the fanboy hate mail if you make fun of it in news articles but I really did not expect the interest in this.

Imagine what would happen when you post an interesting pic.

It's been wonky, but I wonder if my work actually blocked the site. Then I get relieved.

Seems more that other site posted links to this one. While all the GI Joe pics are pretty lame, others had more interesting ones than Marlon Wayans, and going there will eventually lead people here.

It started here. Edit: that's not the right one. Apparently the original was deleted. Anyway, it comes from the cesspool of stupid that is Yahoo Answers.

But this is even better.

For a guy who likes to rip on anything that isn't new, it's actually a little old for an internet meme.

Me too! All of the posts from October to February have vanished into thin air, and the search function doesn't work! Also, the talkbacks ...

I was able to get on for about two seconds at work today, and then couldn't get back in at all. I'm on a PC with IE at work, but once I got home to Safari on my Mac, I had no problems.
