    I will be spending the majority of this down time in the fetal position shivering in the corner, possibly with a small dribble of spittal oozing from my mouth

    Seriously Robert - just do it. We can live with the board being off-line for 2 hours if it saves you a day of labor.

    Subscription system was implemented and I removed the donate button out of fear that I would be called a dirty money grubbing sack of shit.

    That being said; I'll probably re-enable it soon. Theres a long story behind how financially screwed I am but I'll skip it aside from stating that I will not be buying any christmas presents for anyone. Even "base" bills are very very iffy.

    No need for that... I can setup a fake board somewhere to play on or just make sure to get the irc wrapper done beforehand. It shouldn't be too bad knock on wood.

    Now *thats* an interesting idea. I could see that as a public service campaign or some other form of court ordered atonement.

    I don't know man... I get IM notifications from people that PL is down faster than the script engine can process error reports.

    The first and last are the quick ones, including telling Mr.MySQL to take a long nap.
