The search was absolutely exhaustive...

It’s the exact same scenario we saw a few years back. 😁
How long has it been since it was last operational? Maybe roughly two years?

silentwalker58 said:Question.

Can you drive straight from Washington, D.C. to the Suburban Town? Or is the road blocked?

They’ve been spotted right at the entrance to the Suburban Town by the Walmart in the Suburban Town, out near the exit in the Neighborhood, and they frequently set up in the Suburban Area just past the overpass when you're coming from the Hillside.
He doesn't know where they're stationed if you take the route through the Suburban Area toward the Suburban Town, though I'd bet they're on the bridge.

People only ignore the church's situation if they refuse to look, or perhaps if they just happen to be devout followers of Bozanica. Otherwise, it's actually a massive problem.

rowdyorca3 said:So, the stuff mentioned in the video isn't even actually on the website. The whole page feels more like some sketchy ad than an actual portal—you're basically just watching a tutorial on how to use something that doesn't even exist! Do they seriously think everyone can just sign up and get their passes by Monday???

Robert Grant55 said:NOTHING!!!

I’m logged into the eCitizen portal right now and the service is nowhere to be found.
The free helpline is supposed to be open from 8 to 5 PM, and the service was meant to go live at 4 PM 😵

Tomislav Karamarko is pulling the strings from the shadows to push his digitalization agenda through... 🤣

If anyone happens to know how to get to that point, please let me know.

I hear what you're saying, and I get the logic behind it, but there's a major disconnect here. In the YouTube tutorial video, they're showing links for registration that simply don't exist on the actual website.

Is it just me, or is the homepage still totally unresponsive?

btw. how on earth is the system supposed to handle the crash once everyone starts rushing to grab their passes...

You know that specific type of person—the kind who can barely survive forty-eight hours without their partner clinging to them—who suddenly decides this thing straining healthcare systems across the entire country is just some glorified flu...

It’s a funny dynamic, really. On one hand, you’ve got these codependent types who can't function solo, and on the other, you've got total idiots downplaying things people are actually dying from...

So, why don't you just go ahead? Go infect yourself and everyone you care about so you can finally build up some immunity. If your partner gets sick too, just stay tucked away in isolation together... I mean, if it's "just the flu," right?

It isn't even weeks anymore; we're talking a matter of days now. 🤦 😵

Adam Collins4 said:🤣

So, it just wasn't convenient for you, was it?

But now you're crying about it because your little plans didn't go exactly the way you wanted...

Next time, maybe try using a bit of foresight, and you might actually play your hand better...

Plus, from what I can see, someone here—specifically you—was technically breaking the law because you weren't registered where you were supposed to be...

But hey, as long as you look out for your own backside first, right?

The second part of that is so incredibly selfish I don't even want to waste my breath commenting on it...

Try shifting your focus away from your own self-interest and toward protecting your family—and heaven forbid, keep the infection away from them too... then maybe you'd have something worth singing about.

Maybe, or maybe not. 😛
It’s not like my entire life fell apart; mostly just some concerts and nights out.

hollowmason64 said:I really wonder if you'd still call it "blown out of proportion" if it was your own ass or someone close to you among those deaths.

Yeah, except the Chinese are just waiting for the second wave now, and they just shut down the borders to foreigners.

I would, because I’d be in the minority of the absolute minority.

briskjackal5 said:Man, it’s always so easy to talk about 2% of the population "dying off" when you're assuming you won't be one of them, right?

I guess death doesn't seem so heavy when it's just a statistic.

And tell me this—if 2% is such a tiny, insignificant amount, what percentage of the American population do you think "died off" during the entire last war?

-Stipe

The first source on Google says 18 million people. What is that supposed to mean to me?

Adam Collins4 said:So, what exactly were you waiting for before finally making the change?

Was it not in my best interest? Or maybe because I split my time between multiple addresses?

Kenneth Jones70 said:Please—just move on from this thread.

If you’re getting a kick out of us being locked down because of some exaggerated nonsense, go find another thread to post in.

Me, along with probably 90% of the sensible people left, agrees that this whole travel ban thing makes zero sense.

Once the government shows they're actually terrified of this flu and starts testing everyone who was near an infected person—instead of just waiting for symptoms to pop up—then maybe I'll believe there's a reason to worry.

Right now, it’s all just overkill that’s going to ruin everything.

This isn't a war, and these stay-at-home orders are about as stupid as it gets.

The media is just pushing doom and gloom; nobody’s talking about the 90% of people recovering at home with barely any symptoms.

Seriously, just drop it and leave this thread alone.

👍

Even if 30 million people were to die in Italy, that’s only 0.04% of their population. If a similar catastrophe hit the US, we're looking at roughly 1,500 people. A huge chunk of those would likely be critically ill patients who, frankly, wouldn't have survived much longer anyway. It sounds horrific, sure, but we aren't going to lose even 2% of the population.

The sheer level of fear-mongering surrounding this situation is infuriating... and forcing citizens through this ordeal with these permits is pure torture. All of this is just stressing people out, which is arguably worse than the virus itself. People are going to deal with more fallout from the stress of this than from the actual illness.

The priority should be isolating the elderly. Thankfully, my parents understood that; my grandmother already stocked up for Easter so they can spend the next two months staying safe without having to step foot outside.😁

rustywalker42 said:No, it doesn't work like that. Permanent residency is for foreigners. Citizens of America don't have "permanent residency"—they have a primary residence, and you can only have one.

So, according to your logic, someone who has been living and working in Washington, D.C. for quite some time, but keeps their official address somewhere on the Gulf Coast, isn't technically "in" Washington, D.C.? What kind of twisted logic is that if their actual goal is to restrict the movement of the population??

I just don't feel right if I don't leave a little something behind.
Besides, I know exactly how much it matters... I have a buddy who works as a server, and you can tell the difference immediately; his whole attitude shifts depending on whether someone leaves a tip or not.

Is switching to wiredotter89, Guaser, or Gaster too much of a leap?

It’s really not that big of a deal. Just pick one and let New Orleans know.

Keep calm and use Reddit

I had a close call with a stray dog the other night. The rain had just let up, and since it was dark, I was pushing it a little too fast. I took a sharp turn into my driveway, only to find a white dog standing right there in the exit path. He was terrified, I was terrified, and he bolted into the darkness before I could even process what happened. Honestly, my first thought was that I was going straight through the windshield; I was speeding, the pavement was slick, my tires are pretty worn out, and I’d have had to slam on the brakes hard... it would've been a disaster.
It was a stroke of luck that he was white. If it had been a black dog, I almost certainly would've hit him because I wouldn't have seen him until I started braking, and since my driveway gate is only about five feet wide, there wouldn't have been any room for him to dodge... he was right in the middle of the opening.

I read somewhere that if you’re running an ad blocker, a virus from a forum can't actually infect your computer. I’ve got an ad blocker active, and my Avast isn't even popping up with alerts like it usually does when I stumble onto a sketchy website...

Kara, you were sitting on a +1000 surplus 😁

Honestly, I don't see the point in making a change like that...

There’s plenty of purpose here. This second part is just my new handle since you can't swap out the whole thing at once, so I kept the old one attached. See the logic now?
