bye nigel.

i will keep your island running for a while in case you come back. but if your gone for a month or so with no sign of appearing, i'll give the hosting spot upto somebody else (a few other islands are on the virge of being ended too).

Bye Nigel. I have hardly been on a-tractor much for a long while now. But it's not like I won't ever see you again, since you're on my msn list! :)

In case no-one's realised, I'm leaving too...
At least now that I'm gone, someone else can dominate the top of the wealthiest list :twisted:

Sorry to see you go but I fully understand taking some time off Nigel. Enjoy it and feel free to drop by anytime to say "Hi"

We may have had our differences in teh past but the more recent past has been good.

Take care

Nice Avatar Bubba!

So how comes everybody's just leaving for no reason at all?

I'd just not play the game but i will still stick around, probably forever and always. A Tractor's been such a great idea and I don't wanna see people coming and disappearing just like they never came at all.

well i am leavin to concentrate on my studies :wink: GCSE's coming up in a few months, and i got my mocks at christmas! gotta catch up on coursework aswell!!!
Thats not counting social life aswell, which means no time for this :wink: might be back in 6 months, but maybe not.

i might occasionally be on forums if i need to ask help over some matter or 2. since i am always suffering problems with this comp.

:shock:
Well, I wont be forever, I just got other things to do. wanna hear a very bad story?
"Sure Nigel!!" :

Ya know my a-tractor guide? well, it was once very long ago a .DOC, and then I thought using a converter to make it a PDF eas a great idea.....

Now my second hard drive is screwed, I cant access jack **** and seeing that I cant edit the PDF (becuase of encryption) im doomed, without the original .doc, there wont be the new update I wanted to realease, unless anyone knows how to fox a hard drive that wont boot up, at all lol.

not that .doc is much better, but this is why i always rather ill-favored copy protection schemes and elaborate measures to protect intellectual property. it always seems to wind up biting everyone in the ass, heh.

could you copy and pate from the pdf? the layout can't have taken that long to set up, eh?

maybe this thing will convert it for you. well, five pages in the trial.. i think yours was ten though, heh.

there's a billion converters, though you might have to search a bit to find a freeware one.

proprietorship begets proprietorship i s'pose :]
