Revver glitches for Time Warner Internet users

Postby Paul » 31 Oct 2008, 12:17

Just so everyone knows what is going on:

Revver is currently having some network trouble for people using Time Warner for Internet access. They are working on the problem, but in the mean time, many of our videos are available on YouTube.

Unfortunately, there is nothing we can do to speed the process up, so if the videos are not loading for you, just sit tight. We will let you know when the situation is resolved.

Any notion that this is Time Warner "Net non-Neutral"-ing Revver?

Um, actually, it doesn't work for most of Poland. It might be a bigger problem.

Hate to ask this agian, but will the latest video be posted to YouTube? I mean, the vids on there now are great and all, but it would be nice to see the most recent on it. I understand yall are busy, but if you get the time could you put up the latest vid?

I suggest that all customers of TimeWarner call and complain about this apparent non net neutral action against revver.

I'm assuming the revver issues that have been going on recently probably account for the later video as well yeah?

So will the Revver/Time Warner issues delay the 11/4 week's update?

And can I hire Evil Inc. to kick the asses of who is responsible?

Delay? Yes, already.
Cancel? Nevar!

It should be up first thing in the morning. We're just waiting for it to finish processing.

No. The vid is 12.5 minutes long. Youtube has a ~10 minute cap on vid length.

Stay tuned, however. Graham is going to be posting the vid to another hosting service later tonight, so keep checking the site.

EDIT: it will be posted to blip.tv

I'm not in the least bothered if it gets split into two parts but another hosting service is definitely OK with me. Thanks in advance Graham, and thanks for the info TA.

I have seen videos over 10 minutes long, including a stand up routine by Michael Winslow that was 58 minutes long.

Users who had Director (or similar) accounts prior to Jan 2007 (i think) were able to post longer videos. If you had that ability, they didn't take it away from you. However, new specialized accounts are limited to ~10 minutes and 1 GB in size.

Argh!
Now that LRR has moved to Blip.tv to serve -I'm completely blocked from viewing or dl'ing any of the vids on my work system!
Since, I have dialup service at home, I guess I'm SOL for viewing.
Dammit!

Hey, ‘Bones,’ ” my brother, Parker, asked me, "what are you going to be for Halloween?" The elementary school party started at 7:00 PM. The winner of the prize for the most original costume got two free tickets for the Sunday matinee. Parker was dressed and ready to go. I watched him parade in front of the mirror in his pirate costume. He's so handsome, I thought. All the girls in the fifth and sixth grades were madly in love with him. I'd spent the afternoon defending myself from his rubber dagger.

" I'm not going!" I replied.

" Why not?"

" No costume."

"That's dumb," he said. "You hardly need a costume. You're already a perfect scarecrow!" I was used to these observations. Furthermore, he spoke the truth. At twelve, I was already six feet tall and weighed eighty-nine pounds. Tack on red hair and freckles and it added up to one thing: I was a scarecrow.

School days were charged with searing taunts. "Down in front." "How's the weather up there?" "Are those skis or shoes?" It was hard to smile back, and even harder to make friends.
Aion kina,

I tried plastering my hair down flat on the top of my head and prying the heels off my shoes. I took scalding hot baths, hoping I'd shrink. In bed at night, I put my feet against the footboard, hands against the headboard and pushed, hoping to press myself back together. Nothing worked. So I saved nickels and dimes in a cider jug to pay the future surgeon who would find fame in Ripley's Believe It or Not by cutting six inches of bone from the legs of the tallest girl in the world and making her the same height as everybody else.

"When I grow up," I told Parker, as he brandished his cutlass in front of the mirror, "I'm going to live on an island where there's no one to stare." My brother raised his eye patch and looked at me hard.

world of warcraft gold,

"Sounds awful," he said, and left for the party.

Alone, I listened to the cheerless night and pictured the costumes my classmates had bought. I had tried on a few, too, but nothing fit. I could picture my classmates in their costumes, having a wonderful time. As I wandered about the house, I remembered happier days-before Mommy and Daddy were separated. When Daddy lived with us, he always made me feel loved and wanted. Seeing him now for short visits wasn't the same. The more I brooded, the more my self-pity grew.

Then I spotted a broomstick standing in the kitchen corner. Maybe I could make a costume, I thought. Outside, a sheet and pillowcase billowed on the clothesline. I could be a witch or a ghost. Then my gaze fell on the back of the cellar door. My father's old plaid work shirt, faded overalls, jacket and cap were hanging right where he had left them.
wow gold,

"I could be a hobo," I murmured as I buried my face in the dusty clothes. But Parker's taunt kept coming back at me. "You're a scarecrow." As much as I hated to admit it, he was right. Well then, a scarecrow was what I'd be. The closer I got to the school, the louder the cheers and clapping became, and the more my fears grew. What if they laughed at me? Worse still, what if they didn't do anything? Hiding behind the tool shed next to the gym, I pulled everything out of the pillowcase and started to dress. Because I was so tall, I could peek through the high window and see everybody taking turns on the stage in quest of the coveted prize. Ghosts, princesses, monsters, cowboys, soldiers and brides-they were all there, clad in store-bought costumes, fragile dreams for one night. My teeth were chattering. Would they clap for me? Would they whistle and cheer? My stomach ached from anticipation.
ffxi gil,
I'll run home! I decided. No one would know I had been there. But Parker came on stage and glanced at the window. It was too late. He had seen me. If I left now, he'd call me chicken. I watched him bow to the audience and listened to the squeals from the girls as he leaped on chairs and tables and parried with his sword. Next, a small gorilla climbed on top of a ladder and ate a banana. Lincoln gave a brief address. Cleopatra danced with a rubber snake in her hands, and a soldier marched and twirled his gun. Only Tarzan remained.

Maneuvering carefully through the entrance, I went in, held my breath and prayed, Please, God, don't let me make a fool of myself. The applause was so loud for the King of the jungle when he gave his call and swung on a curtain rope that no one seemed to notice me walk slowly to the center of the stage. A pillowcase covered my head. With arms outstretched and hands clutching the broomstick inserted through the sleeves of an old plaid shirt, I wore a felt hat and faded overalls stuffed with straw. The room was suddenly still.
world of warcraft power leveling,
Nobody clapped. Nobody cheered. The only sound I heard was the hammering of my own heart. I'm going to die, I thought, right here in front of everybody. The world was tilting, and my ears were ringing when the hood slid down my nose, just enough so I could peer through the eyeholes. And that's when I saw my classmates for the first time, as they really were. Petite blonde fairies with golden wands-and steel braces on their teeth. A baseball hero with a bat and mitt-and bottle-thick eyeglasses. A boxer with fighting gloves-sitting in a wheelchair. Someone asked, "Hey, who is that?" "Parker's sister!" They looked at one another, surprise brightening their faces. Clapping and cheering filled the room.
