Jeff Ooi disappears from the face of the blogosphereoblogo.

For the past 48 hours, the nation's Sceptre and Marching Band Baton of Free Speech, Screenshots has been down.
Some avid netizens claim that it has been up and down, whilst others still say that it's only ever been a downer.
Reports from the most current version of Malaysia say that the site has been under siege from distributed denial-of-service (DDoS).
Most observers don't quite get what the fuss is all about, given that most Malaysians are used to being denied any form of service.
Meanwhile, in a strange sequence of non-events, even Potshots has come under siege as one local blogger made a claim that has no source attributable to a reputable person, in saying that "Its postings obviously have one aim - to undermine Jeff’s credibility."
The blog also calls author Daft Oi's name, flippant and Oi is personally outraged that his mother has been slighted in such a way.
"My mother took great pains in coming up with a name that was individual and would portent my fate as Malaysia's voice of reason and democracy," said the blogger behind a mist of tears.
The blog however continues by saying that, "I must say it’s rather well written with a cheeky flair, though it's just a one-issue blog. Now, this seems to be a more intellectual approach than the DDoS."
Potshots is now considering legal action at being called one-issue, since it is interested in attacking all forms of media, from newspapers to blogs to the missing persons' ad on breakfast cereal boxes.
Further to that, one of the commentors on said post remarked,
"That Daft Oi is a pathetic opportunisitic prick."

Daft Oi would like to clarify that it is no sort of -sitic except for parasitic and it takes offence at being called pathetic when it is obviously apathetic. Everything else is fine.


A prick, this evening.

Most of all, Daft Oi would like to add a disclaimer that there are no guarantees that any sort of intellectual approach is to be expected from him.
In unrelated news, Maxis denies that any service has been denied, let alone those that are distributed. Once again, this is Potshots, working terribly hard to bring you all the news of tomorrow, yesterday.

Why 5xmom removed positive comment of Potshots? Did she just realised that Potshots is making fun of Jeff Ooi?
