Aside from the fact that your using audacity in the wrong context there, did you ever consider the possibility that the author doesn't have the time to work on this modification, doesn't have an internet connection anymore, is sick, is dealing with family members that are sick, has lost the life of someone close to them or, God forbid, has passed away themselves?

Have a little perspective. This is superfluous piece of code that neither enhances nor diminishes your life by its support or lack thereof. It's free, which means support was never guaranteed and you knew that going in. There are infinite reasons why a modification can be no longer supported and to criticize the author just because you didn't get an update is where the audacity comes in. Modifications come and go, and support is entirely dependent on how much time an individual has to give it. That means it could change at a moments notice, foreknowledge of which you are not entitled to and you get as a courtesy, not as a right.

If the author decides he just doesn't want to do it, he doesn't have to. That's his or her right. And insinuating people are dumb for asking questions is also audacity, since we here at vb.org support each other, which is why some modifications that where abandoned two to three years ago are still active as members work out bugs amongst themselves. I think you should be a little more careful and considerate as to who you call terrible.
