Thats because of the general dogma I have with my mods. My mods are NOT written for you, they are not written for XenForo.com, they are not written for anyone in particular, except ME. I write the mods for myself, but I do also make them easy to use so that I can give them out to other forum owners who wish to use them. A see a lot of mods being written based on the requests of users... and in that case, I fall back on a staple of programming...I think Jaxel is about the first portal I have seen that really got it on the mark with forum software... admins however tend to still put too much information into blocks, as they don't know the golden rules for websites... less is better getting to content.
The point of this is that somewhere along the lines, there is a problem with communication... and it all starts from the customer. Customers always claim to WANT something; and usually what they want doesn't work, because its not what they NEEDED. This usually leads to something called "feature creep"; as more features get added to a project, as bullet points in order to sell it, it bloats the software, makes it harder to use, or simply breaks things along the way. We saw this in vBulletin4.
So basically... if I wouldn't use it myself... I wont program it. Its why 95% of wiki features are actually missing from my XenCarta wiki.
