# happens all the fucking time
b3ta is unreachable for long intermittent periods.

i emailed them with the error messages, they told me it was a problem with b3ta.

i told them that thousands of other people could access the site while i couldn't, and other ISPs i tried still worked. they still insisted it was b3ta's fault.

wankers.

# my wholly unreasonable theory
is that there is a team of technicians masturbating onto my connection box at the local phone exchange.

# It's a tough job, but someone has to do it
And I'm in work from 10:40 til 22:00 again tomorrow, after having done the same shift tirelessly wanking on connections all day today.

# we've had no bother
and we're on freeserve - did you try jelly.b3ta.com or the ip address (which I've forgotten)

# Yeah
What's the deal with jelly.b3ta.com? Is it just some sort of backup in case of DNS fuck-ups or what?

# they have two servers
jelly.b3ta.com, and the unfortunately misspelt custurd.b3ta.com

they also have the sensible aliases www and www2
