It happened again, and I screencapped it.

Heavens, that's absolutely insane. I wish I had some idea of how/why it might be happening. I do hope it's some sort of mad glitch, rather than something personal.

Hmm, it's still not happening to me, and I'm using Firefox as well, albeit the Irish-language version. I'm running NoScript, but I doubt that's anything to do with it.

[matt_doyle]

I'm both alarmed and amused, not to mention very damn curious about it.

Lmao. Matt.

It's because LJ cannot handle your brainpower and it overloads the system momentarily. Have pity on the site. Have pity.

Broken image link...?

[matt_doyle]

Um? It's working for me and at least a couple other people...

[lesstraveled.livejournal.com]

Weird - I thought it was Adblock/Noscript blocking it and switched to Chrome but that didn't work either. In any case read comment in your previous entry, and o_O

[matt_doyle]

Yeah, it's still telling me that ScrapBook doesn't exist, so I have to assume that's why it can't find the image... man, this is even weirder than the picture appearing in the first place.

[matt_doyle]

Now it seems to be loading again for me, at least...

[lesstraveled.livejournal.com]

I see it now!

.... man, that is WEIRD.

[matt_doyle]

YES

[matt_doyle]

Or... it was until a few moments ago...

[matt_doyle]

LJ is currently claiming to me that http://pics.livejournal.com is a URL that does not exist, which may have something to do with it.

o-omg

[matt_doyle]

I was a little scared, tbh. Especially since it seems like this only happened to me. LJ, are you trying to tell me something? Is this a threat or a warning?

[nounsandverbs]

... virus?

[matt_doyle]

Haven't the foggiest. It's not doing it any more, but it did so on four out of eight clicks on the 'post' button this morning, all within a half hour window.

[wakamoto.livejournal.com]

Sounds like someone's DDosing LJ, with all the image problems you're having!

[matt_doyle]

Yeah, that was my first thought, too.

THE QUESTION IS Is it /b or the goons



OR SOME AS OF YET UNKNOWN THIRD PARTY

like ireul

[kessie.livejournal.com]

Holy shit!

[behindmirrors.livejournal.com]

That's crazy-spooky!

[dragon-of-doom.livejournal.com]

Since I know you're using Meg's computer, please run a virus and spyware check just to be on the safe side. It may be nothing, tbh, but it would still make at least me feel better.

WTH?!
