2old2play Still Off Line (sorry)
To all the 2old2play members and users out there, I’m sorry. I have been working on the site maintenance all weekend and still have a TON of stuff that needs to be worked out. The database is just SOOOO much bigger then I thought and going line by line seems to be my only real option for not screwing things up entirely on the site. What I’m basically having to do is go through each “section” of the site and optimize the code before moving onto the next. When you think about the shear number of “sections” (i.e. forums, blogs, clan forums, gallery, tournaments, news, comments, shop, and on and on and on and on) you can understand why this is such a huge deal.
I basically have decided that NO MATTER WHAT I will put 2old2play online by Monday as promised. The only issue is that there may and will be a ton of stuff that wont be done. So if you notice things broken or out of place DO NOT email or PM me since I’m %100 sure I already know about it. I just don’t want to be down any longer then we already are. So sit back and try to relax for one more day as I stumble through a bit more code until we can open back on Monday ready or not…
P.S. In case the blog doesn’t say, its 3am here so if I sound crazy or spell like a 2 year old it’s because I need sleep and have been working all day and night. So I apologize in advance.

Dood,
You’re doing a mighty fine, ( and difficult ), job.
I’m sure nobody begrudges you the time and effort you have sacrificed for us and the greatset games sight on the ‘net.
Hope you’re still sane at the end of it all. Thanks bro.

Take your time. We’ve all got enough patience to wait till you’re done.

It’s all good, do what you can, everyone will understand.
And as always thanks for the hard work, wish I knew coding so I could help you.:)

Just admit it doodi you accidentally broke the site, and you are working like crazy with duct tape and super glue to hold it together.
on April 29th, 2007 at 3:59 pm
Take whatever time you need! We all appreciate the work you put into this site for us.

Um.. do you always do your typing at 3 am? Because that pretty much looks like your normal mode of spelling…
Good work though, I think all of us appreciate the enormous pain in the ass this must be for you, and we appreciate your dedication and perseverance.

Doodi -
Thanks a ton for giving up your weekend and your free time like this so we can enjoy 2o2p.
Now quit making excuses and get the damn thing back online already. :oP

Hey Doodi–take it easy, we will survive. I am having separation anxiety, but it’s not to the danger point yet…….
You are the greatest! Thank you for what you do!

Work that code, buddy. Show that sucker who’s the boss.

Doodi,
Know how much we appreciate all of your efforts, both in creating the site and in toiling to keep it an optimal an enjoyable experience. With programming in my background (okay, long, long ago, but it’s there), I know well the solitary feeling of things not working and people pacing about with scrunched faces wanting to know when you’re going to get it fixed.
Take your time and hold onto your sanity. We’ll cope just fine in the meantime.

Thanks for all your work. This should remind us that someone has to put in some hard work so the rest of us can slack off at our jobs and keep informed about all things gaming.

Can’t wait to see all the hard work pay off..
Keep it up bruva.

No problem Doodi….
It is greatly appreciated all the hard work that goes into the site and it is a minor inconvenience to not be able to “goof off” at work by spending my day at 2o2p’s site. I’ll live and my employer will be most appreciative of the increased productivity without knowing the why.

Take your time man. You can only do as much as you can.
Thanks for all the hard work and dedication.

We do appreciate this doodi.
You can tell, because in any other forum people would be up in arms shouting their disgust at a minor interuption in their fun time.
But here everyone is singing your praise! I think we all can agree, take as long as you need and don’t kill yourself doing it. We want 2o2p to be as much fun for you as you have made it for us!
Thankyou very much!
