#AO3 outage

[frownyalfred]

I don’t know how to say this in a non-obsessed way, but I need the ao3 status updates to be beamed straight into my head whenever the archive goes down. I need that shit announced like we’re in a plane attempting to make a risky landing. Oh we’re down for another 20 minutes because of a server in the Pacific? Sure, thanks. I’ll just wait here.

PSA about AO3 right now

I understand this is a little panic inducing but PLEASE do not try to keep logging in or reloading the site, it's going to overwhelm the servers and make it more difficult for the very hardworking staff. And it will take longer.

so pls be patient
