Just for the record:
It looks here, as if I have started a thread with the title "[OT] no topic". This is not the case. The posts here have been part of another thread, and have mysteriously moved here, without any comment, and without telling the concerned posters. Strange.
Are you trying to say, that I did not do so? Maybe you should take your crystal ball back to the shop, it's obviously broken. Take note of the fact, that I did visit Maxwish's website before I wrote anything in this thread.
Yep, I thought so, otherwise you would have seen that on his open dir site it is absolutely necessary to rename files to prevent cluttering and chaos
And you believe that you know what I saw, and what I didn't see? Interesting ...

Then you probably should not post malicious insinuations about other people.
I apologize to the community for such off-topic posts, but I can not and will not tolerate things like that, as far as I am concerned. And it seems, as if Mr. or Mrs. icfu hasn't yet understood that.
You should not apologize to the forum for being offtopic but to Maxwish for that malicious "LOL" instead.
Besides that I recommend you to just use that wonderful ignore button below my postings if you are not willing to accept different opinions. I am doing the same now to prevent further escalation.

That is not a good idea. If there is need for additional stuff, the author of the regarding plugin should be asked to add it. Plugin authors release a product, and like a hardware product, it has content, shape, and a name. Do you also buy a Mercedes, paint it in a new colour, put a BMW engine into it, and then re-sell it as Porsche?
Yeah and comparing Cars with Software is like Comparing a Movie with real life...
If you dont like Max's Site then why dont you create one of your own and make it better ?

What you wrote about me visiting Maxwish's website before commenting it was a malicious insinuation or even a lie. That you now call it a "different opinion" speaks volumes. Quoting Mark Twain: "Get your facts first, and then you can distort them as you please."
As I alredy wrote in my previous post, I will not ignore things like malicious insinuations or lies. And as I have presumed, you are not able and/or willing to understand that.
