LJ Strangeness

[plonq]

Has anyone else noticed any oddities with LJ this morning?

(Outside of its usual quirkiness I mean.)

More specifically, I tried responding to a comment today and it kicked back with a "server too busy" error, but went ahead and posted the reply 3 times for me.  It could be something at this end - other than user error, I mean.  Our network has been more than a little flaky lately.

My LJ was working fine... until your post showed up.

It's YOUR fault my LJ suddenly slowed to a crawl.

We all do our part. Now I'm off to see if I can break Fark. ;)

At least was a couple of months ago o.o

The uhhhh LJ Info journal that has updates explains this. Basically there was a fuckup and they havne't gotten their shiny new servers in. Also, the "Paid users go first" code is making people wait 10-12 secodns, and they didn't mean it. Meh.
