YES, WE FUCKING HATE IT TOO: Recently, the site’s been plagued by very slow load times or, occasionally, what we call the White Screen of Death. Please know that this is driving us fucking insane. We’re alternately cajoling and swearing at Uproxx’s tech people while they work to fix the problem. Keep checking back in. It’ll be fixed ASAP.

Get it fixed by “Sexy Friday” or else. *
* Or “else” I’ll just spend more time at YouPorn.

I’ve noticed cookie deletion seems to help. Maybe your servers will finally learn to stop having unprotected sex with Gawker’s servers.

I blame Frank TV.

Oh, by the way, I don’t know if anyone’s brought this to all of your attention yet, but the site is taking a really long time to load today.
Oh and what’s with these ads? I have one for a dating website! LOL!

Don’t worry, we’ll keep bitching about it until you fix it.
You can count on us!

Your website has a pussy problem.

Uproxx, the Gerge W Bush of Web performance.

/cues up “Spanish Flea”, the greatest please hold song ever.

Dammit BDD…stop using all the book money on Vikings jerseys and leave some for a new server.

Lemon Party never has this problem :(

Meatspin never has this problem either. Though much like this site, if you hang around long enough, it will call you gay.

@ Pemulis
I’ve watched 237 spins. Anybody bet that? Uh . . . never mind.

Maybe if there were fewer political comments that had to load, it would move more quickly.
October 9th, 2008 at 4:19 pm
TDub for the win!

@Pemulis: How about a NSFW warning there pal.

Yeah, really tough to keep a webserver running.
I’m envisioning Chim Chim running the show in uproxx’s colo…

Thanks Rocco. I wasn’t thinking about it, but wasn’t sure.
