It would be better to ask if someone has set up a temporary chat instead of stomping around like a spoiled child. This topic was posted at 2 days of chat being down. Is that inconvenient? Sure it is, but running around screaming we want chat now is not the right way to go about things. It is also not the way you would expect a moderator to behave.

There are some problems that can not be found quickly and when found can take quite some time to fix. What about secondary problems that pop up after the first? There are other things only the ISP can do and they aren't likely to do anything over the weekend.

I would like to remind that milo is a free site for its members. Depending on the nature of the problem it may take a bit longer to get it resolved due to limited resources. This is not google or amazon that has the money to spend on a staff to watch for and fix problems 24/7.

I did use wix for temporary chat in the past, but I wasn't a big fan of it. Many people also told me that they had problems with it not working right after I had shut it down. I had been looking around for better options for that, but hadn't found much that I found suitable.
