I regret to inform you guys that due to problems in my life, i have to leave NTCompatible.
I know it seems like posting messages on a website isn't much, but lately, due to my condition (depresson), accomplishing the smallest things are difficult for me. I promise that one day i'll return but not until things in my life are resolved. I have had a great time for the past year and eight months. I'd like for DosFreak to take over as a moderator, he has helped many people and seems to me like a great choice as the person to take over in my place. Thank you all for your support.
