oh, well.... again 10 pages...
I think I was last time 3 or 4 weeks ago here. And still the same kind of threads, the same kind of questions... and of course the same answers. The same people who are upset because of the always same answers, not willing to accept that this will not change no matter how much they think they deserve it. Is anybody surprised? Did you really expect anything else? Do you believe in UFOs or in Santa Claus?
We are all adults. Most of us might have children and know what it means if we say "no" to the kids. This "no" will not turn into a "yes" no matter how often the kids are asking. At least it should not, otherwise they will never respect a "no" from you in the future anymore. It is time to accept that here too.
But now it is getting more difficult. Myself and many others might not be worried about the lawsuit, or burn-out syndroms. We can handle the stress part over the time and the lawsuit (IMHO) will end in a positive way for XF.
Now a third possibilities for the hiding of KAM pops up. A VERY private detail. And I beg you, think first for a long time, before you continue to ask again and again egoistically questions. IMHO it is none of our business. If this is the real reason, it is more dangerous than the lawsuit, because emotions, feelings are involved. This can and will of course cure over the time as well. But the time frame is not as predictable as i.e. the outcome of a lawsuit.
But be assure, as soon as you start to investigate private details on the internet in the forum publicly, you only make things worse. This will only reopen old sores. Believe me, you do not want to do this. It will not help you, it will not help them.
All people who state that they know the real reasons behind all of this should have thought first, before they posted this. This is nothing to satisfy your ego. I think that Jake is acting correctly in forwarding all questions regarding this to those, who claim that they know the truth. If they do not want to tell the truth then (which I respect), they should simply shut up and learn from this mistake for the future.
So you have three choices at the end of the day:
1. Wait until the lawsuit is over and see whether development continues then
2. Wait until any kind of personal issues are resolved or healed and see whether development continues then
3. Quit XF and export your forum to an inferior product without lawsuits and without personal issues
No matter how hard you try, nothing will change these three options you have. Whether you like it or not. Bite the bullet, make your decision, cool down and enjoy again life.
