Thanks. Thats really odd and unnecessary. It makes life harder for those who use his add ons to keep track with developments and surely will additionally not help selling more licenses for his add ons.
I think @Ozzy47 clearly has a point with the requirement that add on developers are requested to react to bug reports and support questions here on the forum on the one hand while on the other hand there are loads of bug reports for XF posted here on the forums and stay not only unfixed but completely w/o any answer or reaction for months and years. Clearly a bit of double standards (while at the same time to a degree understandable given the size of the XF team as well as the request that add on developers should support here if they advertise their add ons here). Miserable situation and the beef that resulted from this should not have those results in the first place - it's a loose-loose-loose situation now.
