The complaint has merit though. I've never really quite understood why the shroud of secrecy around quarantined modifications. I think if we are to err - then we should err on the side of helping the community. And the majority of this community are novice hobbiests who like to better their forums. We're not advanced coding gurus who can easily delve into code as to find and fix modification exploits. The current policy should take that into consideration - especially for those of use who do tend to stay tuned to the modifications we install by subscribing to installed mods. What good is a
QUARANTINED! stamp on the thread when we have no further information as for what course of action to take.
"Uninstall the modification and wait until someone gets back to you ... if indeed anyone ever gets back to you." Is not an appropriate solution. It's cold splash of water in the face. :down: I mean - the quarantined email woke many of us up. But what the hell can we do about it??
The policy needs to be revisited if anyone on vB.org Staff would even care to do so...
