The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

Being sick is no fun.

Well, the on-line job progress of mine has come to an alarming halt.  The fact is that I have gotten sick.  The disease has sapped me of my energy, and that really sucks.  I find myself having to sleep more just so I can be well enough when I go to work.  Sure, it's only a cold, but it's a terrible one.  Sneezing, stuffy nose, sore throat and coughing up mucus.  It sucks! :( In fact, because of it, I ended up missing church just this last Sunday because I was so sapped of energy. -_-

So, that's how it's been for the past week.  Until I get better, things will still be at a slow pace.  I plan to speed things back up once I get better.

I have at least had time to think and have decided to take the advice you guys have given me on my eBooks situation.  I've been hunting down places where I can make a website of my own.  Found some good ones that range from $4.44 to $6.99 per month.  I might think of giving those a shot.

Also, CT, I would love for you to give me that list you had in mind earlier.  You can put it up here or send it to me through PM if you prefer. :)

Finally, I have been able to find an encryption program that is completely free that may be able to help me out once I get things rolling.  All you need to know is that it requires more than just a password to break into files with this little program. ;)

If you don't believe it, just check it out.  It's truly priceless: http://www.download.com/TrueCrypt/3000-209....html?tag=mncol

Anyways, that's it for now.  Hopefully I'll get better soon and then I can really get things going.

Until then, see ya later! -_-

Hope you get well soon.  And good luck on the job hunt once you are well enough to starting it again.

Hope you get better soon...I've had a similar virus this year already and I missed five days of work because I felt so bad.  It'll go away eventually.
