God damn you, dorm Internet! I thought I'd been banned!
Jesus Herkin' Christ! I go to post a message and I get a "Page cannot be found." So I freak out, thinking I got tombstoned. :scared: Why? I think. Too many sex thread? Too depressing of late? Shameless post whoring? :scared: :cry:

I'm about to cry, and I try to load DU again. Turns out my login had timed out in the middle of a post so I had to log back in. Lemme tell ya, we only get about 60 kbps, so it's not worth having to log in to get shitty speeds like this. :grr: Bastids. x(

We're circulating a petition to remove the bandwidth cap for next year. I doubt they'll listen...assholes. Especially you, dorm manager bitch. I hate you. x( :grr:

:rant: Rant over.

7. I should be figuring out what classes to enroll in next year.
I've settled on two but I need two more and I should get a copy of the course catalog but there's no one at the reception right now because it's the weekend. :shrug:

9. What you don't realise is that the rest of us are organising a petition
to keep the band-width cap in place.

Without it there D.U. would have to follow the example of splitting G.D. and G.D.:Politics and we'd have to have Lounge and Lounge:ZombieNixon. :P

13. Did you intend
:Politics to happen? Because that is so perfectly fitting!

And so as to not hijack the thread: Dear ZN, forget about your courses for next year for the weekend and get some fresh air! I thought I read somewhere about bypassing bandwidth caps... maybe makeblog, or register.co.uk...? If you want to stay in, maybe you can advance the evil agenda and fix the bandwidth issue for the whole dorm :-)

15. We've been trying to do that for months.
We managed to sign in on the VPN at the computer science building a few blocks away and got much higher speeds, but unfortunately the connection timed out every 20 minutes. :(
