Time and Tide

Not only don't they wait, they don't play fair.

This is a rather mixed post. First, my real life has gotten somewhat busier, which is in and of itself neither good nor ill.
The second, is that this community has gotten a _ton_ busier, a very good thing.

The third, is that I can't keep up the way I have been, (or have been trying to at least! :] ), due to 1 + 2 above.

This is not, precisely speaking, something new; it's been going on the last week or two already all but named. It's just that I need to formally say it, and not expect--or have you expecting--that I'll be back up to 'normal' speed 'Real Soon Now.'

So, folks, please accept my apologies for my slowing you down, my delayed responses and fixes. :\

I'll send in my most recent set of fixes ASAP, and do as much more fixing as I can (though not on as frequent a schedule); and if anyone has a question I'll do my best to answer right. But Big Ideas and Discussions will probably take time to respond to (and already have, counting email).

Sorry folks. :\ <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shrug" border="0" alt="dunno.gif" />. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" /> All the same though. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

So don't not send me things or not ask me questions; please do so. I just may have tell you it'll take a while to get back on something...
Then again, most concrete questions I should be able to answer fine right then. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />
 
Hey, no worries! It is far better you focus on things and take it a bit slower than burn out and vanish from the modding scene altogether! It is all too common out there on the big net. So many fascinating projects simply fading into mist and then nothing...

So, focus on what is at hand in your life and just keep a toe in the door here - we'll make sure no one tries to close that door! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile2.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":))" border="0" alt="smile2.gif" />

Never mind Nathan. I second everything High Sea Lass said. As long as you stay around, I'll be happy about it. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />
Take all the time you need.<img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/doff.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":doff" border="0" alt="doff.gif" />

Thanks, folks. :]
Cheers! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" />
 
Amen, Nathan, I thoroughly agree with all sentiment above. As Ricky Ricardo once said, "Tak-a-tizzy!"... We'll be here... <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />
 
Apologies? Why, even if you drastically reduce your contributions they will still be outstanding. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":yes" border="0" alt="yes.gif" />

And there should be no feeling of obligation or duty here, that would only spoil the fun. We all have to balance PotC and the unimportant rest of our lives somehow (haven't touched Potc for more than a WEEK now <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/w00t.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":woot" border="0" alt="w00t.gif" /> <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/no.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":no" border="0" alt="no.gif" /> )
 
Maaan, same here, busy busy... <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shrug" border="0" alt="dunno.gif" />
 
And from the other side, thanks again. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" />
 
Welcome back again, Nathan! We have missed you. I personally missed you terribly. Bugfixing has gone terribly slow without you. Hope you can give us a hand now that you're back. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />
