    Main thing is you got it back, well done. Bitter experience has taught me never to say 'it'll only take ten minutes' however easy a change it seems... especially when I've a flight home that day.

    Ah c'mon Sully, would you prefer if he fecked off at 5:30 and said he'll sort it tomorrow... credit where it's due and all. Nobody should have to work those hours just so people can post comments about their mothers.

    Ah, I know he's joking :)

    I don't get paid overtime anyway! Fixed monthly rental fee on CuLT, quite a bargain if I say so myself, even if I do fudge things up due to lack of experience once and a while.

    Thanks for the words of encouragement, it means a lot to me stacked up against the abuse from other sources. Fragile ego, far too concerned with how everyone else perceives how well I'm doing my job. A lot of people watching.

    Edit: oh and I'm one day over a kidney infection, high fever, and still have a chest infection, cracked lips and coldsores so yeah I'm feeling sorry for myself :)

    In fairness there are a few idiots posters complaining about how awful it was to be without boards blah blah blah. CuLt had to actually fix the site, I'm sure it was sh1t for him. At least we had the option to do other things.

    Ah **** the begrudgers, wingers and selfish gob****es who have nothing better to do then critesise others. Its a free service, a bloody hard service to keep running with a lot of the work on one mans shoulders and people who appreciate that are those with a bit of common decency. The rest are just idiots who should be told where to go anyway.

    Good man CuLT. Not many would put in the amount of work and effort you do. Keep on rocking dude!

    Good job on getting it back up working.

    Of course your cracked lips and coldsore means you won't be getting anything else up for a few days, so now none of us are screwed :pac:

    CuLT, I doubt if anybody here underestimates the excellent work you do. I know I certainly don't. Thanks for all the hard work, and take care of that flu. I have had it for the last twelve days, all of Christmas, and it's pretty bad. You need a long holiday in warm sunshine :cool::)!!

    No new features. Just trying to keep one of the existing features working the way it's meant to be. In this case the backup which is probably one of the most important features of the site. If that back up isn't there and something bad happens, then it could reduce this site to nothing.

    Fair play, CuLT, sterling effort.

    I'm wearing an I <3 Cult t-shirt.

    Thanks for all your work. I'm not going to pretend I understand anything about what you do but it is appreciated nonetheless. Anyone that keeps boards running smoothly is a hero in my book!

    Anyone else want a t-shirt?

    You poor thing. Might I suggest you do your next downtime at lunchtime, that way you might actually get home for a bit of dinner.

    Honey you're doing sterling work. The site has vastly improved since you came on board.
