    OMG I almost peed my pants, thanks for letting me know about this. I saw a HUGE drop starting a short while ago and didn't know what was causing it, I was going nuts trying to figure out what was happening

    I don't know about Resource sites (I don't own, rent to own, or lease one) but MySpace is for sure has STB right now. Makes sense though that resource sites would receive less traffic during the inevitable Myspace outages.

    I've had problems for 2 days now with MySpace, ever since their latest "maintenance" shutdown.

    On this note, just for topic of talk,

    What do you think would happen, if myspace didnt allow html in any more comment and built an internal css system, so you could only edit you page within the system,

    How many webmasters would go broke?

    I know this is off topic but , since its down this wil lhelp pass time:)


    MySpace understands that user privacy is the key to our success.

    We do not spam.

    Thats your Job! :)

    230 users online at this time yesterday, 27 users online right now. Blows my mind that a company now owned by Fox Media can afford to be down during it's peak hours, and peak days.

    Are you sure fox media cant afford to be down> or you can't afford for them to be down?

    Maybe all you guys should call fox media , and tell them that you are all loosing revenue......Wonder what they will say?:p:p


    Or maybe just be gratefull for all the money you have made off there site .......and just wait untill they restore......

    No company can afford to be down. Especially a company pulling in over $10 million per week because it not only scares advertisers away, but causes major fluctuations in revenue; especially during peak hours and days (which would be today).

    As for you're stupid little comment -- sounds like you are not making much of santas letter, huh? :p :p

    Maybe scare wasn't the right word, but they are not happy. The point I am trying to make is that downtime should be non-existant for a site that is ranked #3 in the world.
