The behaviour of at least one individual has forced me to implement a new feature in pre-release 10; or rather disable an existing feature. It is now no longer possible to use HTML tags in comments, since this individual repeatedly abused this, and I can't tolerate that.

ANN v2 pre-release 10 : Comment 4 of 6ANN.lu

In reply to Comment 3 (Allan Odgaard):
> How about disallowing it only for anonymous users?
That would require me to write a user management system. :)

Yes, I received them. I read them. I considered what you wrote.
It is 22:17 right now. For the past three hours, I've been working non-stop on
another of my projects. There's lots of work to do for that page, too. ANN
would need a few weeks of time to implement all the features I planned for it.
fla.lu is desperately needing an update. gstbk.com is far from complete.
I didn't even start working on chartsurfer.com. yweb.net is empty. My personal
homepage (ckemp.com) needs a rewrite. What am I trying to say? That my
weekend is almost over again and that I didn't even cover 10% of what I wanted
to do. I will, eventually, get around to implementing things that people
suggest. And reply to their mails. But right now, I'm in a position where it
is impossible for me to do anything right away, nor within an acceptable period
of time.

I'm aware of that, too. The comments script is due for a full rewrite
"sometime soon", so I didn't really want to fix this and then rewrite it a
short time later.
I'm working 40 hours a week. I have a commute of over 80 minutes daily. I
train for athletics six times a week, up to around 2 hours each. I have not
one but several other websites that I need to take care of. I also have a
need to relax every now and then and turn by back to anything computer and/or
Internet.
I normally work one or two hours per day on ANN just to keep it updated. Last
month, ANN made me less than (an estimated) 400$. If it paid $2000, I could
run this as a fulltime business and work on it with more energy, and more time on my hands. If this was a fulltime business, I could justify spending more
time on ANN than I do right now. But as things are here and now, I guess you
all have to live with delays concerning the addition of new features and the
fixing of not-so-obvious bugs and errors.
End of rant. :)
