For example, as a new point, you still think this is a new rule. It is not even a rule. Rules are placed for actions that you can take, but should not. And if you do not follow those rules, you accept to pay the consequences. Uplaoding txt or xml or php is no longer possible. It's gone. For hacks, or for normal posts. You cannot do it even if you want to. So a rule for this does not make any sense. Had it been a rule, it would go something like this "Do not upload large files unless they are compressed as a zip file. If you repeatedly upload large files (larger than 10 kb) without zipping, then ..... " So that would be a rule. Sorry you feel annoyed by my posts, but that's your problem. |
Just because you cannot swear (due to the filtering system) does not mean "not swearing" is not a rule any more ;)
It is a rule - Just because you cannot get around it doesn't make it any less of a rule... The "annoyance" factor is more from your appeared lack of acceptance that the staff have already said they will think about it... Satan |

I actually do have a lack of acceptance to many things I object to, and I've been doing it since 2000 here and at vb.com. One of my favourites was when Jelsoft stopped offering Impex as a download, and demanded that people send their db's if they want them imported, and Jelsoft staff will do the importing for them. I objected a lot stronger than I'm doing now. I annoyed a lot of people, and had people actually ask "What are you afraid of from submitting your database..." "Jelsoft already decided that, so stop" etc. blablabla. I kept at it, and thankfully, they dropped that decision. If that annoys you, be annoyed. |

do you visit any other forums? do the admins/staff run all changes of said forum through the people? not all forums do and i shouldnt expect this to be any different. even though this is a hacks community it isnt a public forum just as vb is viewable source not gnu. they can discuss what you said in private as all the same arguments have been done most likly.
if your really offened by this you could always release your hacks elsewhere. i know of several other sites that allow for this. |
Our aim isn't to have people stop releasing their hacks here over a bitter argument about zipping up files when releasing mods.

I'd imagine it is to make a common file format for the Hack Database, and also to allow users to download all the files in one .zip file so they get all the information they need (assuming the hack author zips up all the files :p) in one place, allowing for less trouble distinguishing the instructions and also allowing them to place all the files within a folder structure somewhere or whatever so they know what hacks they have installed ;) Satan |
I think a good solution for everyone would be to have it automatically bundle the zip files, it's very possible and not hard to do at all :)
