While it's nothing interesting or worthwhile to most of you, I just felt like I had to say this.
I am no longer wearing socks because jQuery just blew my socks off.
This JavaScript Framework is much easier to learn than I previously thought.
It implements so smoothly, and while I keep making mistakes because I'm brand new, it's easy to find answers and so forth.
I was originally planning on holding out on adding in the whole 'Web 2.0' phase of javascript until I was sure that, well I could really do it all.
So far in one night I've managed to implement (for the forums); Inline Post Editing, Quotes, Quickreply Previews.
I have further plans to add Post Reporting.
Unfortunately for me I'm still a bit noob, so everytime I try to add something new, it breaks everything I had previously implemented.
But! It is a good sign. :3
Unfortunately I won't be uploading the update until the entire thing is ready, which is still about 2weeks to a month away. I know, but I am a one man team!

Hi everyone,
Since the registration has been opened up quite a lot of people have signed up, far more than I had expected or anticipated. I had never planned for word to spread over at DeletionQuality just yet and Silence did so without warning me, and so by the time I had come online the next day a whole lot of people had joined.
Unfortunately and most importantly I think it is important for me to explain that the website is not finished. There are still lots of bugs and unfinished bits to do. While I appreciate that you are all excited and so forth, considering pretty much all of you are from Deletion Quality; I politely ask that you keep the 'general' conversations back over at DQ for the time being. (As the website is technically in beta, I will be wiping the forums clean and everyone's stats when the website is released anyway).
While I am happy for some small talk and so forth, the reality is that I haven't really selected any Moderators to help out for the time being. To be honest I don't really want to split my time between Moderating and Developing the website when I can focus my time towards developing and get it finished quicker.
I do appreciate everyone's enthusiasm and support, but I think for now it would be best to keep the whole thing low key. When it's ready you'll know, I'll make sure of that.
That being said, if you come across a problem, bug or something doesn't work, or perhaps you have some feedback about something, please feel free to send me a Private Message.
