Forget SOPA and PIPA (and ACTA, ECTA, ICTA, OCTA and UCTA).

The true tyranny of internet censorship, the real brutality of dictatorship, the genuine horrors of arbitrary, oppressive and unconstitutional behaviour, emerged on our very own beloved forum.

Locking threads after 14 days of inactivity became the obsession of the new regime.

Well, the freedom-loving Joke of the Day thread last published on 16th January. Today is the 30th. Will the oppressors make martyrs of the Joke of the Day team?

Be brave, brothers! Prepare to man the barricades. Be ready to storm the Bastille.

Aux armes, citoyens!
Formez vos bataillons!
Marchons! Marchons!
Qu'un sang impur,
Abreuve nos sillons!

OFF WITH THEIR HEADS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Saint]

It is getting rather worrying, the forum is so silent.

Even SeriesN and Northern have been as quiet as tongue-tied mice wearing slippers. Errr... nobody took, "Off with their heads!", literally, did they?

I have been and will be extremely busy for next 2 month. I do read all the post. It is because we are setting up our dedicated servers for public offering also remember, we are expanding to europe?

I feel your pain I just got over a bad cold. One day I was fine and the next day I could just barely move. It's almost gone now.

Yay! Willy's back! Break out the emergency stocks of RC cola and Moon Pies and let's party! Hope North is recovered enough to have fun, and that SeriesN can spare the time.

Been offline for a while, busy catching up with website duties and feeling disgustingly healthy - sorry guys, don't like to sound unsympathetic, but I've only had one cold in the last ten years or so ... ;-). YESSSSSSS

Did somone say "off with their heads!" - oooo, can I watch please!

Expanding into Europe?? I always assumed that Hostcell was already available worldwide - I live in the Asian part of Turkey and receive Hostcell loud and clear (possibly due to having good hearing).

So, SeriesN, where does Hostcell aalready operrate in - presumably USA, Canada, Asia already, but not in UK, Germany, etc????

We are worldwide, but do not have servers in europe. All of our servers are in usa. We will have option for choosing europian location as well for lower latency.

Some of us (e.g. me) might not understand what lower latency means.

Less ping time, server close to your home or your traffic, might be a faster website?

And suddenly it makes sense. Plus a safe distance from NY cable-eating rodents!

[HCN-SeriesN]

Ha ha, funny.

Thanks for the notice Sours! But I wouldnt consider myself back as of yet. My time in here is limitted to when I am doing a full re-compile AND when I can actually get logged in (stoopid firewalls at work).
