Admin: "Sorry guys but we're working on a fix for the multiplayer problems, there'll be a server reset in 30 minutes"

User: "What was the problem? Did they forget to open the ports? Did they have to update the firmware? Was it a malloc() issue? Did they forget to re-route it via the proxy? Did they forget a header file? Did they integrate the right settings for UDP traffic?"

Admin: "Please, we don't need any backseat coders :) just wait like everyone else"

User: "Aww, I was only interested"
