Firstly, a very Happy 3rd Birthday to Racuda. :D
It was today, 3 years ago that Racuda V1 hit the web!

I would like to comfort everybody, that Racuda has not died, I have recently renewed the domain for another 2 years!

I have also revised my affiliates, deleted the sites that were down, and those who didn't return a link, and updated some buttons.

And Version Three! has made some fantastic progress! I've recently spent allot of free time on it, the template/layout is practically complete and ready for content! So depending on how much time it now receives Version Three could be released within weeks! (I don't like to place accurate deadlines because then you have to meet them. :P)

So.... it's all good!

I plan sometime in the near future, reply to all the affiliate requests I have received. I have not properly responded to any of these for some time.

I have been very very busy lately, and haven't found the time to sort through all of my e-mails, including about 6500 that are spam. Sorry to anyone that has sent a request and hasn't received a reply.

I plan to do this in the near future.

(However I'm not sure if year old messages are good to repond to!)

I recently said not to bother sending requests, I now encourage you to send them. Thanks.

Earlier today, visitors may have noticed a problem with a virus being installed whilst browing Racuda, this was due to a 'Malicious Code' being placed on a large variety of Racuda's pages, in various places, due to a problem with my host, which meant many of it's other customers experienced that same problem.

This code has now been fully removed and all is now safe. Sorry to anyone who may have got this virus whilst browsing. Thanks.

Well sorry I'm lazy and busy etc.
Affiliate requests haven't been answered for months, I hadn't even checked my e-mails until earlier today, receiving aproximately 840 e-mails, of which aproximately 810 were just spam.

There haven't been any updates, to V2, or V3...

What can I say... well i'm just lazy, anyone who is very interested in this site (if there is anyone), don't worry this isn't the end... lol.

I suppose I must mention I haven't posted for ages... so... I thought I must...

Ok, honestly I have been very, very, very poor in relation to affiliate requests over the past months... ....and months... I really do apologise to anyone who has sent one. Your e-mail will still be in my inbox, however If you receive a reply now, chances are you've probabaly forgot you even sent one, it's been that long.

I don't know when I will find myself replying to these requests but please be very patient and understanding, and understand that yes, I most probably did receive your e-mail/request.

Just thought I'd let you know whats going on as you deserve to know.

Yesterday, on the 25th of July 2006, Racuda became 2 years of age!

I have to be honest and say I totally forgot... but I was aware it was around this time of year when I released Racuda 2 years ago in 2004.

It feels like alot more than 2 years... and I'm surprised it's not more like 3 years...

The future update of Racuda V3 should be the biggest thing to ever happen around here. Lets look forward and hope.

Considering all the changes made, during the TEMPORARY (before V3 (in progress)) update to Version 2.1. There should technically be no viewing/readable site complaints/problems.

Version 2.1 consists of approximately 20 changes/updates (some small), mostly on behalf of the viewing and 'readableness' of the site. (You can read more about the changes made/V2.1 update in the previous post).

Many of these changes, may not of even been problems to viewers before but I saw as potentially ways to better the site.
