So after months of threatening it my laptop has finally packed in. I am not sure if I will be able to fix it (power port has stopped working even though I recently bought a be charger). I can't exactly afford a new laptop so will try to repair/replace it. I have proboards app for my phone so I can keep up with mafia but God knows whether I will be in a position to roleplay properly. I will try to find some arrangement even if it means getting up the requisite 500 words, but atm I certainly won't be able to write a match as well as getting some roleplay up and I don't have the patience to do it on my phone.
I will let you guys know if anything changes, but if it doesn't apologies in advance.

Exact same thing happened to my old lap top. I'm not sure if buying a new battery would work or not.

The battery is screwed too and a new one may only be a short term solution because I wouldn't be able to recharge it if the port is out. I just pulled it apart and doesn't look like it's easily replaceable without soldering kit, which I don't have.

That sucks, I've had PC issues over the years as well. I mean nothing hurts worse then a PC crash out of nowhere, but on that note. I hope everything works out dude.

My ports on my old laptop went out as well. Replacing it is like 140-200 depending on where you go, maybe you can find cheaper being outside of the country, that's just how much it ran me. Then the motherboard fried 3 months later so it was almost not worth doing it in my case...Hope all is well my friend.

You may just need a new battery. Our laptop did the same thing and that's what fixed it.
