If its on a post basis, how does it work with the stars appearing beside the thread title on the last five posts etc, as is the case with pips DD thread atm?



It was (and I'm assuming still is) the average rating of rated posts in the thread.

I thought it still worked like that.

We never had a proper farewell party for you mate. My thanks to you for two years great work here and three? at MH

Andy will post in a sec about what he's doing now.

The handover was officially today when our new guy, Mikey, uploaded this star stuff. I'll ask him to introduce himself

Unfortunately, yes, I'm no longer the developer of this site (so now you can feel free to moan about how things work without offending me ;-)).

I've been a PHP contractor during the day for about 3 years now and in evenings/weekends I've been doing freelance sites such as Mansized, Pocket-Lint and Rightboat (and a lot of other smaller sites).

I had a new year's resolution to my wife to work less (I've worked at least 4 evenings per week and all day Sunday including the evening in the run up to Christmas and indeed for a lot of last year). After Christmas I managed about a month and then it was back to the same as before.

It's unfair for me to spend so much of my time working when I should be spending more with her and the kids (and our new puppy) so it came to a point where I had to tell my clients that I wasn't going to be doing any more work on their sites.

Will has someone else to develop the site further (and I know he's going to post about that) and you'll be in safe hands.

For the foreseeable though, I'm not developing any more PHP sites outside of my regular daytime contract. (I am however learning Ruby on Rails and am doing a small project in that to get me up to speed). There's no hard feelings between Will and myself (indeed he's been very understanding of the fact that my family life has to come first now) and I'll still be around keeping an eye on the site for the foreseeable.

I'll add that Andy's gone beyond the call of duty for Mansized and MH many times and I for one will sorely miss his input.

He lined up Mikey for us and I'm extremely grateful to him for sorting this out.

Thanks again mate, you're one in a million
