Status update

Hey folks,

So the front page looked a bit outdated. Thought I'd fill you up with what's going on behind the scenes!

The biggest news I have to share at the moment is that DQv6 is still under development. Actually not really big news. I have nothing to show either! I must admit that I severely underestimated the mount of hours needed finishing it. Good thing though is that it will undoubtedly be the most robust and biggest version of the site ever! And that's a reason why I'm taking so long finishing and polishing certain parts. The whole site has been re-coded and re-designed from scratch. Mainly to modernize and give the site easy maintenance aspects so that it will be easy to re-design in the future without too much of work involved.

The toughest parts coding-wise are now finished but there are still some sections and features that I'd like to keep working on and polish a bit more. I'll get back to you with more details when things are starting to look finished. I can't really give any dates and my best estimate for a release is... not too long from now ;)

See you around folks!

DeletionQuality.com

Hi guys,

I have some small news to share with you today. I finally got hold of the .com version of our beloved website name! What that really means you ask? Not much actually. If you ever type in the "incorrect" .com address, you'll be auto forwarded to the original .net version :) Mainly it just feels good for me, ahe!

I have no idea why it has been occupied for so long, sice it never actually held a real website behind it. But I was notified that it would expire real soon and was able to grab it before anyone else took it.

See you around

Happy 6th birthday DQ!

Hi folks!

Today is December 4th, and that means DQ just turned 6 years old!

Can you believe that? Six years? I remember that exact day when the first version launched. I was still living at home and I sat in my room, and was so totally excited that the new website already had 12(!) registered users in the fresh phpBB forums. I sat up late that night and replied to various spam posts and felt that it was the start of something great.

I'd like to thank all of you dear members that still hang around this small website, you make it go around. Also a big thanks to the staff who keeps the place intact, even in times when I haven't been around much myself.

Here's a random neat contribution:

On a side note - as suspected the new version of DQ isn't quite ready yet. But better release something with proper quality instead of something half-assed-rushed right? :)

Keep this site kicking!
