We cannot express enough gratitude to the many people who DM us information on news, leaks, papers, or samples.

It helps us out tremendously.

We cannot do this alone and the love and support from all of you makes this possible.

Thank you

Our advice to people who are new to computer stuff

1. Don't take yourself too seriously, have fun with what you're doing and enjoy mistakes and set backs

2. If you don't enjoy something, don't force yourself to do it
