Hm. Don't you mean "Who"?.


#2 of 32 by ryan1 on Wed Jul 17 00:31:22 1996:

heh


#3 of 32 by tsty on Wed Jul 17 07:44:47 1996:

"who's" are NOT things .... now, now, adbarr .....<tsk!>

   the current president of the board of directors of arbornet.


#5 of 32 by phoenix on Wed Jul 17 22:46:30 1996:

it's downtime


#6 of 32 by hannibal on Thu Jul 18 04:28:17 1996:

Heh..everything



#7 of 32 by ajax on Thu Jul 18 06:06:51 1996:

It is extremely hard to pick out a single feature.  I'd say its bureaucracy.
I think that's led to a number of its other problems (scarce board & scarcer
staff, which leads to angrier users and more downtime).


#8 of 32 by candie on Thu Jul 18 09:16:46 1996:

the fact that m-net is down all the time


#9 of 32 by eskarina on Fri Jul 19 14:29:22 1996:

The fact that even when its up, there is never a time when everything actually
works the way its supposed to.


#10 of 32 by glitter on Fri Jul 19 17:19:58 1996:

As if mnet being down all the time isnt bad enough...its even worse that when
you call to see the posted update, it boots you out before you can even read
it, whats the point??


#11 of 32 by steve on Fri Jul 19 17:59:45 1996:

   I don't think that it makes much sense to call M-Net, to find out
it's status--too much of the system has to be up and running for it
to be able to give out meaningful info.  I think that Grex and other
local systems are really a better place.   ...Has anyone posted the
status of M-Net on mi.misc?


#12 of 32 by eskarina on Sat Jul 20 00:58:32 1996:

earlier I called mnet and connected, and typed update, and got booted out.
After that I called and typed newuser, and got booted out.  I just called a
few minutes ago, and the phone rings, but no one picks up.  Heh heh, mnet
sucks.


#13 of 32 by glitter on Sat Jul 20 14:06:59 1996:

#11:  Considering that Karyl said that updates would be posted on mnet, it
makes perfect sense to me to call and find out whats going on...No matter,
mnet is up and running again...


#14 of 32 by krc on Wed Jul 24 04:02:28 1996:

And this evening it seems to be down again. Can anyone say SNAFU?


#15 of 32 by tsty on Wed Jul 24 08:36:27 1996:

can anyone also say "in recover?"


#16 of 32 by krj on Wed Jul 24 16:14:28 1996:

Most of the interesting users from five years ago have gone away.


#17 of 32 by lapcat on Fri Aug 2 23:24:35 1996:

And most of the interesting activities have been buried under trash.
(Which almost certainly has a great deal to do with #16.)


#18 of 32 by krokus on Sun Jul 1 13:48:42 2001:

I figured I'd reactivate this item, if possible.  The last response
was from almost five years ago.

What's your opinion now?

I spoke to Barry on the phone earlier this evening and he did not once mention
poop. I am worried about him.


#28 of 32 by lelande on Fri Aug 23 19:01:27 2002:

mnet sucks because mnet is down right now, and this is the WORST possible
timing for mnet to be down FOR ME.
