trouble logging in to FRN
« on: March 15, 2009, 1733 UTC »
Anyone else having trouble with the FRN? I keep on getting redirected when I try to go to the page. The page I get says frn.net domaine has expired on March 9th and may be deleted.

Thanks Sealord. Glad it's not just me. Well sort of. Hope they are up soon.

Ditto, same redirect message.  Appears to be a "domain expired" message, not a hijack.  I wonder if they're needing donations to keep up with server expenses?  If so, wouldn't bother me if Cos wanted to put up relevant ads or click-throughs if it'd help with costs.

I'm starting a pool-

The question is, how long will it be before The Rodent claims responsibility?

Given that rabbits are family lagomorphia and not rodentia, you can save your money.

Peace!

Ever notice that rabbits and goats both come in angora varieties?

I think that it's fair to say that most reasonable people would find that statement to be highly questionable.

Why would Fansome shoot himself in the foot like that?

I think it was Lad.

Why go out of your way to annoy the rabbit?  Given the level of vitriol waged against those who do, I wonder why anyone would purposely expose themselves to it?  Maybe the rabbit is right about the level of IQ of those who attack him?
