And I'm sorry, but a few vocal members does not represent the community - we have 110,000 members, and you are like the angry mothers of the community.

All the other hack authors who have had this happened to them are of course upset, but they understand and get over it. I think some of you should just do the same. We are aware the rule wasn't that clear but we had enforced it before so it is not completly oblivious to the "community"

I did not forget. I really dont care what rule you made or what rule you may enforce. You may have to make a rule right now this second to address something. This is normal as our environment is one of constant change. The only thing I care about is the public outcry. This is now a priority of Jelsoft which has become quite prominent as of late.

Currently they are not allowed in the forums but a good portion of the membership would like to see them here according to recent polls. What I would like to propose is an equitable solution that hopefully addresses the major issues.

Tony, do not make the mistake of becoming defensive. Your use of quotes on the word community is to mock me. If you do not agree with the context then do not agree. I am sure you have another outlet for derogatory notions.

Those that have an opinion will post and those without one will not. If members are expressing themselves then they are representing their portion of the community. It is a large enough portion to spend 30 minutes reading a thread. That is large enough for me. What are your standards?

If it doesn't matter, then why you posted that it was a decission by a single moderator.

For the rest see my answer a few posts back.

To establish credibility of it's haste, nothing more.

You can always decide not to read if the content is not to your liking.
