we all feel it. forums are going slow. threads aren't always updating. the wheels are coming off this thing so i wanted to make a thread where we can discuss coping strategies for when "The Big One" finally hits.

can someone send me every image ever from the forums (not just GBS but every subform), including waffle image ones? if size gets too big will likely need you to mail me them in an external hard drive (at the senders expense). Thanks in advance (TIA)

I thought the title said "next forums outrage" and now I'm posting to let you know I'm outraged that it wasn't what I thought it was!

I thought it said outrage too but then the forums just went down for like a minute.
