Apparently they didn't make it different enough... This is a keystone cops movie.. Take a look at the pictures of the idiots fixing this stuff on the dreamhost home page and you'll understand why we get this kind of service.. I have had enough of blaming things on "Naughty Switches".. and Routers that "Freaked Out".. I taking my 15 "marbles" and going to Hostway or something... The cheap price just isn't worth it any longer.. These guys are the laughing stock of the hosting community...No wonder they didnt wear Dreamhost logoed shirts to the Hosting conference. they wanted to laugh (I'm sure it was a nervous laugh), too when people stood around and made fun of Dreamhost...

At this time, the DreamHost status blog apparently cannot access mysql.dreamhoststatus.com. But all of my sites (all running on the same physical host etc.) are working fine. -TimK I noticed sluggishness on one of my DreamHost-hosted websites today.

I would have appreciated a better explanation and more updates. And haven't they said in the past that the Dreamhost Status blog was hosted not on DH's network? I mean, this is why it should be.
