Re: C09062008 - Intrasystem Warpin'
Congratulations, you're now banned for a day. :rolleyes:  Stop asking us to make exceptions to the rules just for you.  It's annoying, and it makes you look like childish.

Incidentally, for reasons of project stability, the limbo code may not be added to the trunk at all.  I hesitate to definitively say "no", but at the very least Taylor and I would need to be convinced otherwise.

Before you close this thread may I know why you keep saying stuff like "make exceptions to the rules just for you"? For me? Giving me money or helping me out with the Uni would indeedly be a "personal" help but...what about this? I simply said that I don't want such a nice feature WMCoolmon came up with to be implemented in regular builds with a delay of several months. If I remember well you made the request to create the Limbo code - correct me if I'm wrong - and you should therefore be as happy as me to see regular builds using it. :nod: :)

Oh well, how would I know this? ;)

First of all, I didn't make the request for WMC to add the limbo code.

Second of all, if I had wanted to close the thread I would have closed it yesterday.

What I'm referring to when I say "stop asking us to make exceptions to the rules" is exactly that.  Don't whine at us to add a feature in the middle of the code freeze.  Don't whine when we establish a board rule.  Don't whine when we close a thread.  It's extremely annoying, and it makes us less inclined to help you in the future.

Incidentally, it's not just you; a few other people have exhibited this behavior too.  So the one-day ban is basically a slap on the wrist saying, "Bad.  Stop it."
