No one claimed it went down globally. It is possible to have a regional issue with access. Could be the CDN or some DNS service got a bit overloaded and the GOP guys didn't get the dick they were seeking, but it's resolved now, so not to worry. They can always check later in the evening from their hotel room.

I would expect something to have recorded downtime at least, but none is reported. Just saying that down detector isn't as reliable as the official logger

Like I suggested, if it's the local CDN or some DNS, grindr central would be working fine and Republicans at home could get as much dick as they liked, just those at the convention would be affected, and then only temporarily.

Why is it so implausible that Republicans indulge their secret sexual fantasies when they're away from home?

Why aren't you under every article claiming outage complaining about how unreliable some unreliable-website-tracking website is? Why is it only when Republicans get shown up for their hypocrisy that you're suddenly turning the skeptical to maximum?

You're arguing against positions I don't have, you good?

Just going off what you said. I find it weird that folks take any number of reports of network outages of websites or apps on the chin except when it's the gop crashing grindr yet again at their convention (when they're all away from home with people with a similar vested interest in not being seen on grindr by their neighbours).

Suddenly then it most all be a hoax or bad data and needs arguing with and couldn't possibly be true. Weird closed mind shit.

Are you not taking the user reports on down detector at face value? All I pointed out is that those unverified reports conflict with official data about uptime. I even explicitly said there was a spike, as usual. It's just not literally breaking the app. Then you conjectured those baseless claims I don't hold simply because I said there's no real evidence the spike was so big it breaks the app
