I doubt that's likely, it's not going to be cost effective to provide for the unlikely event that everyone on a network is going to be calling at the same time. Not that it couldn't handle an significant amount of extra traffic, but definitely not everyone at the same time.
Plus it took me 5 or 6 tries to get through to people I was trying to phone.

Yes.
You are.
Anyways, can we have as many links as possible to news stories on london as they pop up? Luckily i've got in touch with all my friends there now, but still, its important to know what's going on...
We can't get through to our London office, even e-mail’s down. They’ve all been told to leave the area ASAP and make their way on foot to outer London!

Why? I can't handle something bigger than this. I'll straight up go commando on everyone and everybody if that certain something happens. I don't care if it's all fake conspiracy shit or not.

That's what I was thinking. A lot of explosives are detonated by cellular phones.
How the fuck would you know? Answer: You don't.

Fuck off you stupid trolls.
"Some of the IEDs have been remotely detonated using relatively simple, readily available low-technology devices, such as garage door openers, car alarms, key fobs, door bells, toy car remotes, FRS and GMRS two-way radios, cellular telephones and pagers – which enable radio frequency command detonation. Therefore, this implies that observation of the target area probably requires line-of-sight observation points in many cases. However, the adaptation of using radios, cell phones and other remote control devices has given the enemy the standoff ability to watch forces from a distance and not be compromised. "

Yes you idiot, they just wire the vibrator motor to become a trigger. They have to ring the fucking phone. It’s not the fucking space ray coming from other people’s phone. God, you're fucking mad.

what a fucking stupid thing to say.
I'm sure that if this were in Montreal, everyone would be saying "too bad ToxicBug wasn't there".
no we wouldnt
first, noone knew you were in montreal (cause noone cares) and secondly, everyone would know you'd be safe somewhere in a basement smoking weed like theres no tomorrow or hanging with your fellow streetracers

I highly doubt it.
An online friend of mine was on the train to Liverpool Street station when the explosion happened there. Fucking terrorists... What a waste... And all because the US helped out in World War I.
