    This event was nuts, it really showed just how terrible Roblox servers are.
    It's also comedic how the servers went down again this year just a week before the 2 year anniversary of the burrito incident.

    I don't think I'm right but my guess as to why it's called the burrito incident is because the chipotle event was taking place and players spiked, adding salt to the wound was that it was nearling halloween, so people were trying to get their halloween event rewards fast, leading to the servers being overwhelmed crashing with severe damage

      No, not really. The platform has seen loads of times before where a huge amount of players were in a game at once and it caused little to no issues.
      Example: Adopt Me reaching almost 2 million concurrent players at once in april of 2021.

A memory I had was that people, including me were making jokes. I did touch grass for all those three days, though.

    I'm getting so much memories from this shutdown. Back in 2021, I was in 7th grade, and once I got home on the 28th of October, I went on Roblox just to play Jailbreak, then suddenly, the screen "We're making things more awesome. Be back soon." shocked me. I've never been so flabbergasted in my life. When I tell you, I was freaking out for who knows how long, because all I wanted to do was just to play Roblox, but I couldn't because of a malfunction (idk). And as we all know, when we tried getting on our accounts, it would refuse. I was freaking out, I thought someone hacked my account and probably spent all of my cash in JB. I'm surprised this only lasted for 3 days, but in my eyes, this was by far the worst 3 days (until November came around). But yeah, its crazy that 3 years flew by so quickly, and looking back at it, I fucking miss it so much with a passion.

    Depression- people silently waited they knew all they could do was wait
    Bargain- people were begging and pleading that roblox would comeback online soon (or at least from Twitter/UA-cam)
    Acceptance- roblox finally returned and things were back to normal
