Meta SE better not have the same favicon as Chat SE or my bookmarks are going to get really confusing.

ChrisForrence

I'd think that the MSE favicon would be a greyed Stack Exchange bubble

Undo

not likely

3ventic's Shadow

@animuson It probably has the same favicon as stackexchange.com

Just kidding all, we're not really splitting. This was the most elaborate hoax for a rep-cap EVAR.

Actually the scheduled time is in 23 minutes..

False start, on the developing team. That's a five-yard penalty, remains first down.

meta.stackexchange.com has stopped redirecting, and now displaying an error as though it's a real offline site.

Riking

Stack Exchange is currently offline, we'll be back shortly!

the link to http://meta.stackoverflow.com is not helpful on that page...

That blog post from 2 months ago really explains a lot :P

@3ventic'sShadow don't even joke!

@3ventic'sShadow It's cached. Try adding a /? after the domain.

On an unrelated note, my rep tab in my top bar doesn't work. Anyone experiencing that also?

Riking

[blocked] The page at 'https://meta.stackexchange.com/' was loaded over HTTPS, but ran insecure content from 'http://sstatic.net/error-director.js': this content should also be loaded over HTTPS.

@Doorknob Go report it on... uh...

Doorknob

Probably because they contain content from meta.SO, which is unavailable

GnomeSlice

Some stuff on the site might be nsfw, but has anybody else heard of this?

Undo

I could claim 'first migration to mSE'

Doorknob

3ventic's Shadow

@Undo Yeah!

Doorknob

Mysticial

Meta's down. Where's everyone going to go to post their off-topic programming questions?

@GnomeSlice no, it's on chat.SE

Doorknob

Because he doesn't have mod powar on meta

You can set the room's parent site to meta.SE already
