Headaches are the worst. I'm taking a new medication for my arthritis or inflammation, or whatever the heck is wrong with me, and I get these ThunderClap headaches, usually in the middle of the night. Head hurts so bad it wakes me up out of a dead sleep. Absolutely NO FUN.

Thank you!!

I'm doing okay. Had a doctors appointment today. Got some meds that I hope and pray help my head. These headaches suck so bad.

Welcome back!!

Hope you're doing alright?

Here and checking in!! I was in the hospital and the state hospital for a while. Now I'm in a group home.

Miss everyone!!

Over the past couple of weeks, I've gotten back into PHP development. (Visual Studio has a great plug in for PHP, but it's a subscription 🤮), and I decided to try making the Battle Mod that I once created for SMF twenty years ago. It wasn't much, it just had a little button members could add to a message post and a line of text would be generated at the bottom of the post, usually inflicting some sort of "Karma" damage.

Anyway, I started making this for XenForo (my current forum platform), and with the help of DeepSeek, I have to say, it's pretty amazing! I've gotten probably six months worth of work done in less than a week-- I actually understand XenForo's design a bit better too. And once I got past burning down the bridge to rebuild it (understanding aforementioned XenForo design) I started making actual progress.

Now this current version has support for multiple role playing game systems (not just a prototype system), it has a Leader board, a full on character sheet editor, and is fully integrated with the Shop and other Gamification features I've added. It's a pretty massive project!

But I'm interested to know...
1) Does anybody care about something like this?
2) If you've ever built anything special for your forum (assuming you have a forum)?
3) Am I just a crazy old (cat-less) lady?

Let me know!
