  • So how come, in order for me to make a comment, it wants me to log in to Stack Exchange, where I always fail to log in successfully, after I got there from the link above, while logged in on ELU.meta? Nuts. It would be nice, but it's not to be, apparently.

It wasn't just ELU, but has now been fixed:

This was an issue with the SOA and A records being cached really hard on some DNS servers for a day. We never had a TTL higher than 5 minutes on the A and no higher than an hour on the SOA at any point, so we're at a loss to explain why some downstream DNS servers chose to cache for a full day.

The records in question are fixed now, but if you had this issue then beware your DNS server. It, or an upstream server, is not configured properly.
