So what has happened?

I got promoted from being a goodygoody who could only report posts, to being the guy that can actually take a active role in helping the community through management. In other words, I'm finally a supermoderator

A lot of you guys have been asking me, what has happened though with my other ties, such as my most prominent connection with Euroteck and Neal. Nothing bad happened, infact, I think the best thing has happened. I've gotten to know the industry in and out with Neal guiding me step through step. We've gone through good times, and we've gone through the worst as well. We've had nights where our inbox's were full with about three hundred e-mails each, to nights where we actually sat there, trying to figure out what to sell to keep ourselves alive (okay, him, not me ). We're still the best of friends, but I decided that I cannot serve Euroteck directly on this forum anymore because I personally see it as a conflict of interest. That might change, that might not, but I just wanted everyone to know that helping out MBWorld is a great oppurtunity and I could never pass that up. However, at the same time, helping out MBWorld through other aspects such as giving great prices was also extremely satisfying, and in no ways am I going to leave Euroteck on a bad note.

Haha no one gets voted off the island man! The island is ever expanding, like that one off the coast of Brunei.

C43AMG, we've been working on it all summer, everytime I feel ready that it should be released, some under the hood stuff comes up.

Give it time, as always.
