As an added thought, if you prefer to discuss me or my Dad further, it should probably be done by email. So if you want send me an email and we'll try to clarify any misunderstanding that way rather than detract from the original topic.

Arantor I have no wish to carry on this discussion with you here because it is obvious to me someone has been feeding you a line of BS and it isn't me.
Dad is alive and well thank you and I have never posted anywhere, here or on SMF that he was dead. Heaven forbid that is just morbid. I've never posted here either that he was dead so again you have me mistaken for someone else.
I have not logged into the SMF forum nor have I posted anything there. Neither has Dad. SO I have no idea what you are talking about and have no way to validate your link or what it says.
But the facts and truth is, we have not logged into or posted anything on the SMF forum in over a year.
I've just checked my past posts on here and can find nothing of what you speak of so I'm at a loose as to what you are referring to.
This is my last post here over a year ago http://wedge.org/pub/smf/7996/my-review-of-customer-service-on-smf/msg288899/#msg288899 and my next post was this one http://wedge.org/pub/smf/8221/sm-org-compromised/msg290840/#msg290840
Arantor I have no animosity towards you or this project and have never spoken unkindly about either.
Neither do I have any animosity towards the SMF project.

I just talked with Dad and he confirms his access is being blocked with this error messageQuote Curious since he hasn't been on there in years either let alone make any requests.

Well I can't say I'm surprised by this as security vulnerabilities have been reported by many over the years. Years ago there seemed to be a taboo placed on anyone who reported these breaches which is why I have not logged in there for over a year.

Features / Re: Miscellaneous/WIP screenshots
« on April 8th, 2013, 07:40 PM »The one problem with accepting outside funding is that we stop building it how we see fit, and start building what others want us to build, which is not the same thing at all. Features start getting adopted that are specific to a single use/single installation, rather than a broader use (and I'm aware that this has happened already)
Right now we build what we want to build and that's ultimately the bottom line - people can make suggestions and whatnot, and we're not under any obligation to accept them, but we will if we can see the benefit of it. But the minute money gets involved, it changes that dynamic, and I'd hate to compromise what we have for the benefit of the few at the expense of the majority. I'm just very wary about it.

I agree with Aaron Smith regarding seeing daily progress on this project. It's refreshing. I may even present you with the same R&D offer our corporation made to the SMF team years ago that they talked themselves out of.

Arantor, I like that feature but if a person can see their post from a folder they no longer have access to, are they able to edit/delete it or not?

Turning the light on in a mushroom barn is self defeating. It stunts the growth and requires more shit to be spread when questions abound. :whistle:
