Okay, people, relax!

Sorry, but I really have to agree with foogod on some points. The whole 
page issue in the beginning did keep me from just handling quick 
problems (like the temporary iframe, which is still from the first 
pages, like the contact page at that time was simply "Go mailbomb 
ChristianHJW". The contact page changed though, somehow the page with 
the iframe didn't). In the beginning I had this quick-quick-quick 
motivation. I did the design in 10 minutes, implemented it in an hour or 
so, and when the PHP script arrived (thanx hikke!) I had the first 
temporary pages up really fast. Then I began redoing the first temp 
pages, and replace it with something more final. I did all the pages 
that were up on wiesneronline.net/homepage at that time. But work wasn't 
finished from there, there were still a lot of things to deal with. Even 
the whole site structure was undefined (Christian wanted some extra 
stuff, and I had some ideas about it too).
Then came the issue. At first I was really like demotivated, and kindof 
unsure too, since basically anything I'd do on my own (I work most 
efficient on my own) could be shouted at by robux. And that with 
Christian running around like a chicken saying "robux is our most 
important developer, we can't have him leave the project". I had more 
like this opinion that if he left for any reason like this he wouldn't 
be worth the effort to begin with anyway. But well, had to be careful. 
When the whole flame ended and stuff I really didn't feel like doing 
anything about it at all. Christian wanted to have it public soon 
anyway. Not that it was ready for anything like that. Time passed and I 
adjusted some things. But not anything that'd make it really ready to go 
public. But well, I'd lost my spirit anyway. So came yesterday (or was 
it the day before?). Anyway, Christian wanted to put it up on the main 
URL. Ok, I said. So I logged in, wrote a new "Latest News" thingie, 
moved the old page to ./oldpage, moved the new page to the main dir, and 
there it was. Christian and I decided that it was incomplete, but at 
least less outdated than Tronic's old page. So that was kindof the end 
of the story. Homepage up, but not good enough to be up. And everyone's 
to blame. Make peace. We'll get it fixed.
