I would tend to agree with Klieber when he closed the actual bug about |
| 20 |
this issue that I read through a few weeks ago. The problem with |
| 21 |
leaving it optional being users vote a bunch on bug X and then the |
| 22 |
developer says he doesn't care, and then the users bitch because 'their |
| 23 |
precious voice was ignored'. Personally if users want crap that bad, |
| 24 |
they can submit the code themselves. |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
Most if not all of the developers here are volunteers, and just because |
| 27 |
a bunch of users vote up a bug doesn't particularly make it important to |
| 28 |
work on. I think that if this is made clear enough somewhere, them this |
| 29 |
could work. Obviously voting is a very nice tool that could help out a |
| 30 |
lot of people who use it. It's just not worth it (IMHO) when it annoys |
| 31 |
the other half of the people who don't use it. |
