Internet falling to pieces?

dyl10 · 21-10-2009, 17:26

Some strange happenings, occurring on the net lately.
Starting last week, the colleges main web based resource goes down. The only online game I play has gone to ****, the server is always up and down. The search function on boards is still broken and the only chat client I use just went down!
I won't even get started on facebook...

Madness the lot of it, I feel like I'm actually having to reintegrate back into society

Is someone systematically trying to take me down, through the means of knocking off my recreational outlets?

Or has the internet just become shabby in content and quality?

Same complaints here tbh, plus the internet was down for a good 4 days. Just got it back around noon today. Eircom, of course.

Stupid internet, forcing me to actually go outside. I mean, who does THAT anymore?!

Hippies. Well, they look like hippies when I peer out my bedroom window...

It's all a mass conspiracy from the underpants gnomes cousins the Network Trolls!

Someone has obviously typed google into google and broke the internet. Idiots

It wasn't the Internet, just the curry chips I had for tea, sorry.

I think the internet started going to pieces when its core values and principles were impinged on by stuff such as facebook, bebo, chat clients, games etc.
