Is mumsnet falling apart?

As well as "we're offline every thirty seconds " madness, it now tells me that the search function for unanswered messages is broken until 3 May. Is Tech on holiday? Got the sack?

Come on MN please don't die on me!

Has to add that as I just googled and was fascinated to discover the wealth of material out there relating to uses of duct/Duck tape. Who knew?

Let's not start the duck/duct tape thread again..........

Duck tape

Perhaps you need to spend more time in DIY stores

FarelyKnuts · 02/05/2012 11:00

Does it only work on ducks? This duck tape?

Could try duct tape if it does..

SoupDragon · 02/05/2012 10:51

Duck Tape. That's the answer to everything. Even dodgy servers.

Hello. Sorry about all this - we are on the case.

The Unanswered Messages search doesn't work at the mo because we've turned it off for a bit - in an attempt to reduce the strain on the server...

We hope to have it back on again tomorrow.

In technical terms, MN's servers seem to be fucked.

ThisWeekonFancyPuffin · 02/05/2012 07:17

Could we at least have a good offline message like this

LadyBabsWalthamCuddles · 02/05/2012 06:50

I don't care as long as they fix it having trouble sleeping recently and I NEED MN to be working

HecateTrivia · 02/05/2012 06:47

Yes, I get that too - can't connect to the server, it may be busy or blah blah blah.

I think they're going to need to spend some cash on upgrading...

LadyBabsWalthamCuddles · 02/05/2012 06:43

Mine broke in the middle of the night and I didn't even get the "we're offline" message. Just internet explorer cannot display this page
