Matt Young 0 Report post Posted November 25, 2004 We have 1 phone line here at my parents' house where I am currently at. I signed off AOL dial up so that my sister could use the one and only phone line, but I am still able to chat on AIM while she's on the phone. I am also obviously able to use IE, and it's as fast as cable! We have no cabel modem of any sort. This makes no sense, but it's wild. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Matt Young 0 Report post Posted November 25, 2004 Come on, Inc. Fess up. You slipped some 'cid in my Diet Cherry Coke, didn't you! This is seriously fucking with my head. I am already delirious from sleep deprivation, and no one here can figure out what's going on. This should theoretically be impossible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Boner Kawanger 0 Report post Posted November 26, 2004 That's happened to me before. Main difference? I didn't piss in my pants when it did. Were you directly connected with someone? That seems to be the cause for me. That or a ghost. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Matt Young 0 Report post Posted November 26, 2004 I was directly connected the first time, but i'm doing it now and am not connected. I'm pissing my pants in excitement because of the fact that my 56k is now working like broadband, and I'm used to ridiculously slow computers. For example, I couldn't get insidepulse.com to load at all before even after 10 minutes of waiting, and now it takes 5 seconds. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kaertos 0 Report post Posted November 29, 2004 Sounds like you are running DSL. Doesn't make any sense, and you usually need a special modem and a network card, but heck... don;t look a gift horse in the mouth. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Matt Young 0 Report post Posted November 30, 2004 411 is good now only for some wrestling news and Evocator Manes' columns, plus maybe a few other choice columns that pop up every once in a while. The Scott Keith rants, music section, video game section, and comic section- the main reasons I went there- are all gone. Insidepulse is where it's at now.

Guest The Shadow Behind You Report post Posted December 2, 2004 Maybe your parents got DSL and didn't tell you. Look around the cpu to see if there's any new equipment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Matt Young 0 Report post Posted December 2, 2004 I've thought of that when the thing started. I even mentioned it to the them. No, nothing's changed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
