There are thousands of us on this list that use it FOR REAL. Some one having an issue with degraded Netflix streaming or they can't pull up their Facebook page is an abuse of this fine instrument we have for REAL problems. Fibers cuts, Level3 ATM switches going down, EC2 AZ problems, etc. are real and service affecting to those of us that run networks and companies. Not one person's evening entertainment quality being reduced. Can I please propose that we police ourselves enough to know that if what we are posting doesn't affect a large populous OR isn't germain to our livelihoods (network admins, techs, engineers, NOC personnel at any common carrier or ISP, etc) that it not be posted? Today, any email from OUTAGES commands attention, respect and is a community, voluntary call to action -- like ringing the bell in an old west town. Let's please keep it that way. _____________________________________________ Cheers, Mike Sent from a thingy connected to the interwebs.

I understand your point and yes I should have paid more attention to the posting - will give you that. I'm quite familiar with their infrastructure. But wasting a full paragraph on his wife cooking vs just getting to the point would have created a lot less noise on this list too.

You can't be serious with this. It's like you're skipping even basic troubleshooting or identification of a potential problem entirely. Knowing Raman, he sent this from his couch because he saw a little degradation while streaming an episode of Entourage. Nevermind that in his time zone, it's near dinner time, his TV's media unit is probably on wireless, and his wife is more than likely cooking dinner. Heating up a side dish is no reason to assume there's a network outage or degradation that could possibly be noticed all the way to Canada. Netflix's service infrastructure is a varied beast that involves Amazon's cloud services and no less than two CDNs, if not three. Make the effort, instead of making noise. - billn On Sun, Aug 14, 2011 at 3:35 AM, Paul Stewart <paul@paulstewart.org> wrote:
