Thumbs up Rich Thanks for all the hard work!

Rich I just wanted to say thanks for all the hard work, all the time, and all the effort you put into the site. I know it's a lot of work, patience and dedication on your part. Knowing you, you haven't slept in days so I just wanted to say I appreciate it man!!

Now this is for the others on the forum. I know most of you appreciate Rich and all the hard work he does to so make sure you post and say thanks. This man works really hard for you.

There are a few of you though .......YOU know who you are that I saw whining yesterday about the site..
#1 you know Rich and you know he'd been up for two day's working on this and I'm pretty sure he probably didn't even sleep.
So the fact the you have big enough balls to b_ _ ch and whine is amazing to me. STFU and give the man a little respect and also give it some time to grow on you OK. Rich is always trying to make improvements on here to try and make the site better for all of us.
I think he has earned or respect and patience with this matter.
If I see on more person whine I'm gong to send you a virus that will render you computer unusable for a year.
Well maybe not but then again don't' push it!

LOL....you're the greatest Jeff, and a big reason why people love this site.
If it wasn't worth the trouble, I wouldn't do it....but the simple fact of the matter is I wanted to create a place just like HL has become, a place for really good people to have fun, make friends, and learn about ssystem building, upgrading, and tweaking....and its all of you....Paul, Blake, Jeff, Dano, Gordon, Drew, Jon, Josh, Bo, Hitman, polobunny, and everyone else (sorry, its late and I'm tired.....and still have an article to edit).....that make HL what it is.
Every time I talk to someone about the site, even guys from other sites and companies....they always comment on the quality of the forums, and the people that populate them.
We've come a long way in 9 months...we've grown tremendously fast, and the site is developing a very good reputation.....just bear with me....things are changing all the time, but for the better....I promise.
All I can ask is you guys continue doing what you are doing, except Paul, cause we really need him to do anything. Invite people to join us, spread the word and lets have fun

Ah Jeff, good one man!!!!
Yes indeed, thank you Cap for all of the hard work, and BS that you have to put up with.

Now what you should do, is take a couple of days, sleep, rest, take Jamie out or something for yourself. Just enjoy a couple of days of not dealing with it all. It will still be here when you get back man.:D

LOL that’s because you edit and delete inappropriate post. My post count would be over 1000 if it wasn’t for half of them getting deleted :)

Yes indeed thanks for this wonderful site and the hard work. I know how much you put into keeping everyone interested in the site and how much you care about the people here. I'd tell you to take a break but I know that there's nothing you would rather be doing. Well ok maybe a few things but this is your second passion.

Hell yeah jeff, very well said! Thanks for working your a$$ off for us Rich and a big FU to anyone that doesn't appreciate it. No forum is ever going to completely please all of it's members in terms of layout and color schemes, and making a fuss about it right after a software migration is pretty poor form. There's nothing wrong with not liking it, but at least wait to complain untill the man has had time to take a breath . Anyways, I'm pleased as punch with it now and I'm sure that we'll continue to see improvements this forum progresses.

Right I have no name now. :P
No prob, sorry I can't help more at the moment i'm suffering a *beep* cold, and I worked 12 hours yesterday and 13 hours and a half today so I couldn't manage to do the buttons and whatnot. =/ I'm also dead tired, as one would normally be I guess.
Anyway, cheers Capper and keep it up this site is great.

Very nicely said!

Yes, Rich defiently does alot more for this site then most admins probably would for that site. I mean the guy pretty much worked like two days straight getting the forum working right, most people would have probably worked on it, and left it for the next day, rather then try to get it working as fast as they could.

And like Django said, for all your hardware you should take a vacation:)
