How long have you been away?
Last month there was a big crash of the database.

More important and maybe the reason why you came back,
lot of good and funny discussions.
Tousands of polls with and without sense.

I hope your exams were successfull.

You missed losing a bunch of your posts to a server crash.

Servers came back online a month ago yesterday, adn many lost quite a few posts. We are now running off of a December backup and Spoony Bard is trying a few different thigns to get the posts back, though it's unlikely it's work (he's not sure what he's dealing wiht, AFAIK)

Around 4000 users lost their accounts, if they registered since december. ENGS stuff should be okay, since it was on a different server.

Other than that, EN World is same old, same old. However, I must say that that was a better April Fools joke than Intellifilter could've even been :lol:

A gas shortage and a flock of seagulls. That's it.

Damn seaguls

I don't think I had any posts I wanted to keep so I should be uneffected by that mess, oh well... the one I wanted I downloaded

Shame about the rest of youse.

Thanks about the exams, I think they went fine. Physics, Maths, Chemistry and communication studies; all should have been fine.

that was a line from a movie or TV show, i'm pretty sure. i think the question had to do with someone who had slept through the 80s or something, and asked what they had missed.
