Looks like Backpage maybe gone

I tried posting this morning but it says come back in 15 minutes.
The whole site across the US is frozen. No one has been able to post an ad across the board since noon East coast time.

Ive checked every major city and the posted time is all the same.

So Im wondering where everyone will go if BP really does shut down.

What will that mean for this area?

It seems that it's working right now, able to see ads on there from today.

Yes you can see ads but no new ads since this morning. The ads are all from before noon.

It still says come back in 15 minutes when I try to post an ad.

New ads are being posted in Killeen at 4:50 pm today.....

They were down but not out most of the day. Just now came back online in Houston. Routine update.

Oh okay was wondering cause it said 15 minutes but it was like that for hours so I thought they were frozen since the new laws have been passed.

New laws??

The new laws in Washington are that you have to send in your driver license to prove that your over 18 to post on Backpage and I thought maybe it might be down do to that.
