Has something happened?

On 1/27 and 1/28 I was having a lot of issues with this site not functioning properly. Yesterday (1/29) it seemed to be back in order again. My curiosity being, almost all of the senseless bullshit has come to a screeching halt ever since the site issues began....and by "senseless bullshit", I'm primarily speaking of the masses of all the usual idiots contacting me, all of the stupid 'friend requests', the trolls, etc... . I find it odd that since 1/27, the "normal" activity just abruptly stopped. That's not at all a complaint. I just find it odd. Anyone else noticing this, too? Anyone had recent site technical issues? Just makes me wonder.
