MAL Updater OS X 2.3.11

After many complaints about the update the limit, I decided to remove the restrictions, but instead show a donation reminder every 24 hours. I am going through difficult times due to a loss of a job and making this my current job. I initially decided to do this change due to the project funding being unsustainable and I can't currently afford the costs to keep developing the software for free. If there is more people supporting the development on Patreon or through normal means, I won't implement any other restrictions in MAL Updater OS X 3.0 that were planned.

I apologize for anyone I angered from the change.
