Arkcher Posted April 10, 2008 Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 I dunno if MW has relayed the message or not, so I will sieze this one intarwebz-oriented oppurtunity to poast moar. As you probably know, i was in the process of moving, And now that we're out of one house and in to the other finally, AT&T decides to not give our new area service anymore. Its a bit out in the country, close to a state park, some 11 miles out of town. Being this far out, we made NUMEROUS calls asking to confirm with multile representatives that service is indeed available out there. It is, allegedly, but now that we've moved there, it isnt. so like, the day we moved there, they stopped giving service to that area. So, the cable company that does provice service to that area, we've also contacted many times, and they say 'Yeah, we can get you internet. um. in like, 3 weeks?' so, 3 weeks later... 'Oh yeah, um, yeah, we can totally get you internet. sometime in the next few weeks.' 2 weeks later... 'Yeah, i might get you guys internet sometime... Your next-door neighbours will get it first though.' If we use the same cable line, why would it matter? couldnt they get us both in one day? The intarwebz just dont like our new area, and Im going insane without it. I have 3 story updates, one new story, two new videos, some MMORPG guilds i havent tended to for about a month, for which i know i've been banned from by now, And Im rather scared to go check my email, fearing what events have passed that turned in to monstrosities without me. On the plus side, since Im homeschooled, and depends on the internets, I havent had any school for the past month or two. But its not very fun because I have NO communication, very little cell phone signal and no internets. LAWD I AM SO BORED D: anyway. Im alive and such, havent abandoned you guys, and by now this tiny keyboard and 600x800 resolution screen are a little tough to work with. So. Im out. I will stop by every internets-intensive time I can get hold of, and Once I get internets at my house, Theres gonna be some serious whoopin's on Brawl online o:< with nothing to do, I've had ungodly amounts of practice. Fare thee well, 'Til we meet again, Some other old-timey staying. ph34r not, i return KTHNXBAI Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arkcher Posted April 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2008 -rips many hairs out and frustration raaaargh- OKAY So Im here, on MY computer. turns out, Our beloved local cable company has run out of their cable internet modems, and thats why they're stalling for time as to not give us internets. But, now that we have a better idea that We really wont get internet for a while, my dad ended up having an epic showdown with AT&T tech support and convinced one of them to go out of his way to give us -drumroll- DIAL UP CONNECTION IT IS TAKING SEVEN MINUTES TO LOAD ONE ******* PAGE -hides in a corner and cries much- The internets are taunting me with their terrible speeds. I have 78 unread emails, and since 20 minutes ago when I got dial-up plugged in, I still havent got one single email to load. so I'll keep tryin for it, and be online as much as I can, but it wont be often; Dial up is using our phone line of course, and with bad cell phone signal, Im currently using up our one reliable way of communicating with anyone. so Most all is well, Internets are terrible, I will move on to other sites for mah bid-niss and return at another time.

Funny how you get a modem with real internet on the weekend I have no internet whatsoever. - Glowurm Did you know internet withdrawal symptoms involve not eating as much? It's true! Or at least, I seem to eat less whenever it happens to me... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
