I will do my best to keep posting. But it's almost impossible to go back to dial-up. That's like reverting to whale oil lamps.

I would never go back to dial up either if I had cable, but I do hope you get something worked out. I think I speak for everybody when I say there's no way we can imagine the boards without you. How about DirectTV? They offer a broadband service, but I don't know if you have to subscribe to their TV service or not to get it, but it's worth a shot.
Good Ol' Batmanuel!

Almost, but not quite. I had a DSL service that messed up my computer somehow, and I returned the package the next day. I went back to dial-up (le sigh), but maybe I'll try a high-speed service again some day. Anyhoo, i'm pretty new here, but I hope you can still keep posting here somehow.

Don't panic yet. Lawyers are claming that cable is a utility and federal law states you have to give subscribers 30 day notice. So its likely this will be delayed a month. (I hope)

Bad news. Excite@Home got the go-ahead to shut down.

What is going to happen to Higher Score? It sucks you are leaving. You can anoint me as Toonzone News reporter to cover you until you come back!

Adios, Matt! :(

Oh no. Well, this may very well be my goodbye as well. Until we can find another internet provider, you may not see me on here for awhile. I will miss all of you, and can't wait to come back once this is all straightened out!

Reporting news shouldn't be a problem.. my old 56k doesn't have a problem with forum-based pages...

High Score will be tougher to do, though.
