Are we losing yet another site? I am a refugee from two other sites so far.

No. Dr. J just made a Facebook and Twitter page.

Dr. J is just trying to appeal to another audience. This site is not going down.
That’s why that message was signed by Dr. J, not by someone official.
Someone tell me how an animal without fingers managed to become admin, but I’m not!

@Sarcasm Because he’s Dr. J. That’s why.

No, it is merely to spread the presence of Fluther across other social media. It is a way to make Fluther known and to get new users.

Also, when the site went down last week, they used Twitter to let people know.

Fluther isn’t going to shutdown. We’re stronger than ever. And that’s official.

@timtrueman Well, assuming these storms don’t flood the Flutherplex…

I don’t want to judge so fast before I see what he’s planning to do there. At least I want to witness the impact first.

why is this such an issue? we’ve got two questions about it already?....c’mon.

@shilolo Nope, the servers are safe in St. Louis. Although I woke up Monday to a puddle of water a foot from my bed. It made it six or seven feet from the window (which wasn’t open, it was just gusting in sideways ferociously).

@eponymoushipster Mine was just for a lark.

@timtrueman By safe, you mean, safe from DDoS attacks? Also, people are more valuable than servers….

Haha, yeah we’re safe and the servers are always vulnerable to attacks but they won’t last too long if we send Dr. J to splash some water on the attackers’ computers…

I was wondering why it said that on the top of the site. And I was wondering who the heck is Dr J.

@lilikoi You know. He’s about 7’4” and he perfected the sky hook in basketball. You know. I think he played for the Celtics. You know.
What I’m wondering is how the heck he got that up there??

Dr J was a small forward who played for the Sixers, not the hated Celtics! In fact, he got into a famous fight with Larry Bird. Man, I hate the Celtics….

@shilolo Well…he was 6’ 7”, 210 pound. Not REAL small. But not 7’4, either. The wiki article is also giving him credit for the no-look pass, which I thought was Bird’s creation. Wait, Larry Bird created the “Look-away” pass. Slightly different thing…

@eponymoushipster I asked before I saw the other question, but I see the wording has been changed now, and sounds a lot better this way. I don’t use twitter or facebook, and have no intention of doing so.

@Val123 Yeah, I know 6’7’” isn’t small compared to most humans, but in the NBA, that is considered small. Magic Johnson is taller than that, and he was ostensibly a point guard.

We’ll get our Wikipedia article eventually.
