Those things happen, and actually have happened before on STSF. It was probably just a temporary server failure in the chatrooms, or something like that. ::shrugs::

Hey there,

 

Great punt? ::puts on his old person clothes...like those A9 always wears:: You don't know what a punt is! Back in the day, when you had a punt it was a REAL one...could keep you from getting online for five or ten minutes in some cases. Youngins.

Only five or ten minutes? Bah, you had it easy! I remember punts that took people out of comission for an entire sim!

Indeed! At least in STSF after you get punted, you aren't screaming at your modem "Stop with the busy signals and just sign on!!!"
