I don't want to see this site brought down as so many have been by sock puppets who are unwilling to have reasoned, rational, respectful conversations and be held accountable for their words and actions-wraith808 (March 07, 2011, 08:46 PM)
Tell me how uploading an maintenance release of an app that has been here since 2005 show we are being any respectful to our donors? Are we not now already taking the donations for granted?-lotusrootstarch (March 07, 2011, 09:03 PM)
Perhaps you are taking the donations for granted, but as someone who pays out of his own pocket for a site that several people use, I can tell you that I'm sure mouser isn't taking them for granted. Again, you are looking at it as a singular service for pay, and that's not what it is at all. The 31 days of events is to highlight the fundraiser, not to pay for funds. If you get into that logic, then they are not donations, are they?
And don't think I don't see that you re-purposed the words that I wrote, instead of taking them in the spirit that they were given. Your style of debate is pretty sketchy. More dodge and avoid rather than attempt to understand at all. What is the purpose in such a discourse if there is not a two-way flow of information and ideas?
But, let's let that slide. As mouser said, this has degenerated to the point that there's no productivity or value from the conversation (or lack thereof).
