I just tried to log in and it sais they are down

*Confirms* Even though my other account is still online, my normal one got dropped.

I can't login either.

This is happening all the time - why are we all using such an unreliable im platform? Although I don't use it, AIM never gets these kind of issues.

Yeah, it just signed me out when I was talking to this chick lol, Damn!!! ... Aww well, don't matter really, I'm just chilling out on the net now, the same happened to me a few days ago .

This will give me a chance to bond with my family a bit .

They must be doing more updates or they are blocking users or I don't know...I give up

I can't see why they would be blocking any users, maybe they're setting up some more precautions for the whole 'leaking' thing ...

btw, I'm online now .

Oh who knows it's microsoft.  They are obviously doing something or Sir Bill pulled the plug just to keep those guys in the messenger department occupied.

I can get back on now, hopefully everyone else can

im back online now...

Same here

blargh, i thought they were laying off with the service changes....then signed out again, o well, i'm back in...

I got back in, then signed out and couldn't get back in :\
