what the HECK happened?! even op's got banned, what is going on???

[Infidelitas]

Is this IRC or Flash chat?

[wyatt]

i am on mIRC the other non-ops were using flash except one i think

[CaptainObvious]

evidently govchat has elected to join that inane SOPA blackout - i.e. cutting off the nose to spite the face. you weren't actually banned, they'll be back online at 8 PM EST.

[wyatt]

it said that: "Put this on your site or automate it by putting this JS into your header, which will start the blackout at 8AM EST and end at 8PM EST." and its 3:28A.M. here EST nowhere near 8am.....

[CaptainObvious]

they're communicating poorly and the idea is stupid to begin with, but that's what they've done. it'll be back at 8 PM EST, as per the govchat server operator.

[wyatt]

i prefer the server going totally offline, not a freaking ban.... they could at least warn us they were lying about the downtime....

Um... a help site chat room going down? so this is the mIRC, right? and not the other one that's on here?

this pisses me off.

The IRC is not hosted by VirtualTeen.org, hence we take no responsibility for their actions. Our chat room is still up.
