I asked a simple question, in a new thread, rather than revive a 7 month old thread. Why? Because security vulnerabilities have been patched at this point, I didn't think it would do any harm to simply bring a topic back up. I was told the owner didn't want to try adding a plugin because of issues, and said that was fine, I'd respect the decision, it's not my forum.
I was then jumped all over for asking a question that had been asked before, with people talking about giving negative rep. I'm just saying, I respectfully said I understood. I didn't try to argue it, or anything. Yet, multiple others were quick to denounce me for simply trying to find out the status on something, that hadn't even been asked about for 7 months (at least, in a new thread that I could find).
Point is, why do people feel the need to be rude about something? I'm not looking for an argument at all, just asking people - be at least a little more polite. Forums don't become popular by being treating people like dirt.
-Also, I do realize this is a free forum, but that doesn't mean I haven't spent money here.
