Most people will know how demoralising and tiring a thankless job can be. With getting things back up and running again after the hack, Bob is again going above-and-beyond the call of duty. Lets use this thread to give a shout out to the almight Oddbob and let him know that we think he's ace!

Bob, if you're ever in Sydney let me know and I'll buy you a beer or several!

"Thankless job"? Ever since the hack, all I've been reading is "thanks bob!" and "great job, bob!". Frankly, I'm getting a little sick of it.

Well I strongly suggest reading another thread then.
If the worst thing that was on this board for you to get sick of was people saying "thanks" then what a sad sad world we live in.
If it were 6 months from now I might agree with you, but with the poor guy still labouring to get things up and running, I don't think any amount of "thanks" is likely to be too much.

And with any luck for you, people will put their thanks in this thread and you won't have to upset yourself reading it elsewhere.

Criticise people for harassing new members, or totally writing off the game someone's laboured long and hard to complete, or for putting spyware in their game, but don't criticise people for thanking someone for doing something on EVERYONE ELSES BEHALF.

Thank you, Oddobob.  Smiley

Does that cover pretty much everything that needs to be said? ;)

Pretty much the long and short of it, folks. Past couple of days have been a right downer, no mistake and just getting this forum up and running has turned that from "mehhhh" into "yay".

Essentially because I may run this place, I may bang my head against a desk far too often over this place but you lot ARE this place. And you're ace.

Hopefully once the giddiness and excitedness of having the forum back up passes things will get back on a slightly more productive tack, but it's understandable given the down time that people are a bit hyper to start with especially with a whole fresh forum install to deface and make homely.

Just like an animal marking it's territory I guess. LOL
