I see your changed your sig Jump. Will Code For Respect instead of food. As funny as it sounds, it's true.

Do to recent developments in Livewire's thread here, I am putting this protest on hold for the moment (I can only speak for myself), until I see how the discussion continues. It's nice to see progress being made.

Sorry, but I would never do this anyway - I just don't think this is the right way to get change. :)

Well, my understanding was that nothing else was working. It's not like I jumped right too this. I've been active and supported all my hacks and the other developers in the code forum...

Not to beat a dead horse here, but the only thing you will accomplish through this is punishing the users who use and need support from your hacks :)

They are the innocent parties in all this :)

The same goes for every strike then?

When people strike it's for their livelihood. The issue here is about respect. I'm not going to belittle or patronize the argument in any way but I am scratching my head with it.

I'm sorry, what policy has changed to cause this reaction? As far as I know, things have not changed. I'm not sure how a "hack database" which is still being coded would have anything to do with policy. I'm sincerely wanting to know so that we can improve and address the concerns.

Actually that's a thing i want to know myself.

Due to a matter of facts, i didn't have much free time to spend on vb.org during the last days, and the only changes i remember during the last two months were those, requested by these users, who actually seem to have problems with those changes now, which is very wierd, as they were the one requesting them in the first hand.

Unfortunatelly i wasn't here that often, to really know what things had happened, but from the discussions i participated in the staff forums, there weren't any policy changes, so either, you know more changes than myself (which would be very interesting to me, as i should know those poilicy changes as admin...) or there are actually other reasons for those reactions lately, but then i'd prefer to know the true reasons...

My reaction was specifically to being called replaceable, and having had numerous suggestions go unanswered. But mostly to being called replaceable. Probably an overreaction, but we we're all getting pretty hot yesterday.

Things seem to be on a better track now.
