So when does SE plan to credit our accounts for the multiple ongoing service issues?

I feel like the middle ground here is:

SE is not directly at fault for the connection issues cause by DDoS attacks on their ISP. SE has an obligation to provide a certain level of service to its consumers bc of our contractual agreement with them. However, they have a vague ToS clause in our contract to help cover their liabilities. Has the problem reached a point where the clause is no longer an excuse for non-compensation? Maybe for some, for others no. Those saying yes have every right to feel that way and voice their opinions, and aren't wrong (in the legal sense) unless a court upheld SEs ToS. However, common sense would tell you that the damages incurred by individuals as a result of the issues in no way necessitate the kind of legalistic approach that would be required for compensation. Further, it would be more appropriate for them to take action as opposed to yelling into the forum void if they actually feel so strongly about the issue.

TL;DR
If your mad, say what you want but tone it down. We are talking dollars in losses, if even that much.
If your chill, tell others to be be chill. Don't just tell them to shut up.
