I know it's really weird.
The needs of those who DON'T want the full memberlist are well covered.
They will be able to disable it or use a shiny new version which is much better adapted to big boards.
That was announced at the start of the thread. There's no more to be said on this point of view except to thank Mike for the improvement.
But the group who DO need the full memberlist are not yet covered.
This has been mentioned on the board persistently ever since XF started. So there is still need for discussion on it.
But noticeably whenever those who do need the feature try to talk about it, now or previously, it gets a reaction from those who don't want it. It seems they want to block the feature for others as well as just disabling it themselves.
Their anxiety was understandable in previous discussions before when a more elaborate memberlist would use resources on their boards. But with the new option to disable it, this will not be a problem.
It is therefore mysterious why a group whose needs are about to be met, still wish to interfere with the other group whose needs are not yet met.
I see many features proposed or discussed, including on this thread, which are of no interest to me. To me that is no problem. I just focus on the things I do need, and skim across the rest without needing to enter those discussions.
