Do you ever give up on MODs because you get bored of the amount of time it takes. I'm often in this situation but come back to them because i really want to finish it.
Also on average how long does it take you to script things?

It really takes time for your mind to relax. It is same as making a program. Sometimes, I stop a while to have a deep fresh and continue to go on my porject. I felt that your mind is crushing all of the codes that you want to type. Or simply that your mind keep on thinking that what you want to do and you really to complete it. But under constant pressure and time, you will definitely feel bored. Thats the time that your mind needs to have a rest.
Writing a MOD takes time. Getting it through the approval process can take ages. I don't mean that it takes a long time for the MOD Team to respond, it's just that they are very picky (it's their job, afterall). I spent months on a MOD, submitted it, and it got rejected for what I consider inconsequential issues under the name of "security".
I recognize their points... they are all valid, and they have rules to follow. It's just disheartening to go to all that effort thinking you're done and find out that you're not.
evil<3 you know which MOD I'm talking about, I bet.
I have several released MODs but they're all short. Easy to write up and submit. I have tons of non-released MODs in use at various places that are more complicated.

I never give up. perhaps move it on the 'long time' project.
I have 1 ABD project:
http://www.phpbb.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=399836
All coding has been done, it was a block spam project but it was not effective to STOP signups, yet to stop them from beeing active..

This sounds really awesome, we already spoke about parts of this before. It could use javascript to "add actions". It could be hosted here (but also elsewhere, just an offer ). Some parts of it are also already done / being developed by Lord le Brand and drathbun (output in multiple formats).
I`d help with development where i can
