    My Internet connection's been completely messed up (constant disconnects and time-outs) for the last few days, so I've been pretty much only doing the most important stuff concerning SP, like checking the mail and the boards, and leaving the rest for when they finally get this thing fixed. I've still got a mile of backlog in the SP updates department (it'll probably take me a year to catch up on all this), so I'm already working on the next site update. Slowly, but surely, the pile is diminishing... Anyway, the next site update will probably have to last till near the end of January, as I've got a boatload of things to do in RL by then. I wonder how many other people have to slave away in December and January when everyone else is enjoying their holidays... *sigh*

    Me too! Though my site is not as large as yours is. I have so much to do on it lately, it gets overwhelming sometimes. I run the site RPGOne Translations. We do game translations of older video games like on SNES. I am doing the code for the site based form phpnuke but highly customized, so it involves so many fixes for security and checking the latest updates, and making sure the protection software is working and updated etc... It really even takes from my time I have to work on my game translation projects. We get like 3 or 4 hacking attempts each day now. Its sad. Noone has managed to hack in yet though. But I have so much to do for the next couple months with the site and the projects so I feel for you! :) Thanks so much for making this site so great and putting your personal time into it. I have been a silent fan of this site for quite some time. And will be for as long as you are around. ;)

    Add me to the December/January sufferers list.

    8 exams.

    And as Harbourboy said: We're not taking all your hard work for granted. :)

    [​IMG] Uh, Tal, I think they were referring to me.

    But you deserve some credit too.

    Do I know how hard the holidays are going to be. I mean, all that time off, and spending my free time with my loved ones. What is a guy to do?
