@home haters unite! (that means you, Lüt)

[deathz0r]

heh.

[stphrz]

Apparently I'm no longer an @home user! I am now @Shaw.ca. I thought I noticed something weird about how my internet was acting.... It's fast now. I'm getting dl speeds in excess of 300k/s regularly o_O. Ping rates for some site (like this one for example and somethingawful.com) have dropped considerably.

GOD IN HEAVEN WHAT IS HAPPENING?!!!!

[Red_Warrior]

Unfortunately I can't bail on @home..... damn, nobody in this house listens to me about this stuff..... *sighs* this is bad... this is -very- bad... and if Comcast screws this up worse... many the Gods rot the higher-ups! Bah!

Yes, I've adopted saying 'gods'... the Chanur Saga... nobody knows what books I speak of, do they? Ah well... Pyanfar's one of the best leading ladies in a sci-fi book I think ^_^

[Doom_Dude]

The Pride Of Chanur. Read it ages ago. Was pretty good, what little I remember.

[danarchist]

OH FUCK
I hope this doesn't mean I will be completely disconnected...if so, well it was nice talking to y'all...I'll miss ya.

UPDATE:
Well, apparently, we don't have the old modem service we used too, so it will be a while until we get a new one.

Plus, our cable is still unburied. I guess the guys won't come around to bury it. Lawn mowing will be a bitch...

i hate it when @home fucks up and goes down for days at a time, but.............. IM GOING TO BE GONE FOR A WHILE, OH NO

Yay! I have the Chanur Saga... three books in one. Love the drawings... there aren't many in my version, but...

And yes, @Home is helluva evil. Just like Gateway. And Windows ME. Hell, Eggman's a fluffy rabbit versus any of those three!... and I mean the -harmless- kind, not the Holy Grail bunny of death ^_-

Bah... I'm too hyper... gotta check for grammer errors! ARGGGGH! They are -books-. BOOKS!

ExciteAtHome

I'm on AT&T's so I shouldn't be affected. Not like it makes a difference; after Excite's shuts down, the average offline times for each company's @home service should be equivalent.

So that must be why you never reply to your damn email.

i hate it when @home fucks up and goes down for days at a time, but...

I also hate it when it doesn't work for 5 months out of a 9-month period.

i thought that excite@home == AT&T@home.

i thought that excite@home == AT&T@home.

From what I understand, AT&T was set to buy Excite until the stockholders revolted. So if they were able to buy Excite's, then I doubt it's all the same service. The service may function the same but each is it's own separate network.

[danarchist]

Huh. Anyways...this is my last post for tonight. And if you don't hear from me for a while, you know what happened. I hope it doesn't take too long for them to change our service. Well, I think I've made about 100 posts tonight...Vermillion Hells! I guess I've got to get on to bed now...

Tschüs!

[danarchist]

Hmmm...I'm still alive...

[SoKatH]

Yeah, I'm now a @rogers.com user... it's good that us Canadians have shit under control... sort of.. haha

Well then, I'm glad that I use my college's network for internet access. It saves a few pennies and eliminates the trouble...

[Lüt]

Bastards took me down.

However, I don't need to vent here because I've been smashing everything in sight for the last 30 minutes so I think it's pretty well taken care of.

[IMJack]

Help... Help me... Cable modem... down... trapped in.. dial-up... hell... page loading takes... five minutes... losing mind... e-mail takes too long... DoomWorld takes too long... can't... access... porn... help... help...

This sucks. At least AT&T has promised us double credit for all the time they're down. I'm stuck on the dial-up provided by the school, those little censor-nazis. *sigh* I need some booze.

I'm with total retard here.

However, I'm not even bothering with Dial-up so I'll most likely be out of the scene for the next few weeks. I'm not paying royalties to AOL so I can browse pages at molasses speed and I'm sure as fuck not putting up with NetZero or any of the other worthless "free" dial-up services (I'd sooner pay with money than my sanity).

I guess this means Zaldron has a fair shot at beating my postcount :)
