Ah yes, Me having spent hours on getting this to work really doesn't mean a lot to you, doesn't it?
If you're going to use my work, then why don't you pay for it?
I decided to distribute this for free, but this doesn't mean I give permission to every half-arsed developer to rip out the main code and use it in his plugin.
I'm not stopping taz from making his own reloader plugin, I don't care about that. My reloader isn't making me any money at all, and to be honest I'd already forgotten about it.
But if he wants to do his own, he should do his own research, just like I did. I am in no way obligated to share my knowledge with anyone, and if I ever do share information like this, I will do so out of my free damn will.
The main problem with your 25-lines of bullshit is that you've forgotten one major thing: It's freeware, I decided to share it with the world myself, and this does not in any way force me to make it just the way you'd want it. It was provided as-is, and if you're not satisfied make your own. And by "Your own" I mean by doing your own testing, investigating, retrying, and so on.

TB! Stop that baby shit!
You are really acting like a #¤W%#¤% kid on 5 years.. You are really being to ridiculous... Sorry people, but you gotta admit he is.. Again.. As he has done before in the past... All you sarcasm and "oh no" BS...
Ah yes, as soon as I don't just plainly accept anything thrown at me, or decide to not help out like I usually do, people always bring that up... but tell me, what's your fucking point there? It makes no bloody sense!

Why wouldn't you want to help TazDevil?... Is it beacuse he wants to develope an improved version of one your plugins????... Is it beacuse you feel it would be competition?... No.. I see... You did spend much time on getting the Reloader to work as it does.. Then why didn't you spend 5 more minutes to do the improvement as TazDevil wants to do?... Or if you didn't think about it then, then do it now?... It would help the other developers a hell of lot.. It is nice to have a reloader, but it's really a pain in the ass to have to have an open conversation to reload plugins and to type in a command to reload.. this means I will have to be online on the account I uses.. But what if I want to stay offline.. If I test something, and don't want to be online.. What then?? Use my secondary account.. Yes, but then I wouldn't be able to still watch my standard account contacts, e.g. if my "under development plugin" doesn't support polygamy or craches....
The greatest would be a Reloader plugin in which you can define 2 hotkeys, one to unload plugins, and then it will keep unloaded until you press hotkey 2... Or something similar... You could have done this ages ago... And now someone wants to do it for you.. Of course giving you credits for it... But all you can say is "No"...
The plugin was provided as is, I couldn't care less what you want, I was merely sharing something I created for myself. And the reason I said just "No" was that at the time I was really hung-over, couldn't be bothered to type more. And thinking back, I don't think I had to type more, I am still the developer of the plugin, and I am not obliged in any way to explain why I refuse to cooperate with something.

You could have giving a better answer.. A answer he could relate to... Maybe you could have giving him a hint on what to do/where to look... Something!!! Anything but a "No" answer!!!!.. We are a god damn community, people are supposed to stick together and help eachother... We are trying to create great plugins, not #¤%#% competion... If you don't want to help and be part of the community.. Why are you here then????... We have to help eachother...
You really don't get it, do you? Normally I help out, a lot more than I should be at times, and this time when I refuse, I get crap like this thrown at me? would you call that community behaviour?!

It's ok if you don't want to give out the entire source, but you could at least have spent 1 minute on giving him some hints as to what to do, of if you didn't want to do that, then you could be willing to create this reloader yourself... You might do that, I don't know.. But then you at least could have stated in your post that you would do that, so he shouldn't worry...
I know it's wrong to reverse engineere other peoples plugins... But what would you expect with an answer like that????....
I'd expect people to just accept my answer. is that too much to ask?
You ask me something, I refuse, and you keep on whining? that's five-year-old behaviour...
quote:
You think you own the reloader plugin part because you made this smart feature to hold it until a button was clicked... NO!!!! Nobody owns any thing!!!!.... There is no competition, no nothing!!!! Just plain and simple programming.. Community.. Sharing... Making the best out of messenger.. That is what this is about... But why don't you want to help us the other developers to make greater and greater plugins?....
I own the code I write. And if you disagree, then don't touch it.
