What is going on with this site, you get DB lost connection errors all the time now. I can't remember the last time I was actually able to access and browse for any kind of jokes at all!

Understandible when Jacko died - it hit 8/9000 views, and fell over... but it's falling over with 250 odd people viewing - are they really that strapped for cash?

I thought the bloke who owns it also owns b3ta - that must mean he's got a decent host somewhere...

Pain in the arse frown

Rant over!

Tell me about it. Whenever there is a significant event and I try to go there to be the "first" one with all the sick jokes, it's always down thanks to the 10 million other people with the same idea.

Just go to the Sean Connery thread, all the jokes are cut and pasted there!

Because the chap who runs it (Rob Manuel) does so largely out of his own pocket.
As you'll see, there's no advertising; I'm assuming there's not many well funded companies signing up to get their name on a page with dead baby/rape/racist jokes on it.

Because those who read Sickipedia can't keep up with B3TA, those who use B3TA can't keep up with 4Chan, those who use 4Chan can't keep up with Fark, and those who use Fark can't keep up with Something Awful, and for those who can't keep up with anything, there's Pistonheads.

(Its your fault.)
