Good morning,
I am curious as to the reason that the Zekken plugin thread has been locked. I was logging in this morning to upload a copy of my database file to the thread, and found it to be completely locked. What is the reason behind this?
Reading through the last page or so of posts, I see a toxic player and attitude towards the plugin and it's developer, but, beyond that, there are only basic incorrect statements made about the plugin itself.
I have been using Zekken since it's release back in December of 2014, and not once has it performed with anything less than satisfactory performance.
The database system that was provided by Neverdyne was, at release, already quite extensive, and not once did he mention he was going to continue to 'flesh it out' more. Instead, he decided to build in a very, very simple to use ability to add in your own spells into Zekken's spell database for avoidance, furthermore, he included complete and easy-to-follow instructions in the main post on how to do so.
The attitude that was received by s single toxic player, was that if a database was included, it should be maintained by the developer, but again, a promise to maintain the database was never stated.
Instead it was left to the players, knowing full well what it entailed to add/remove spell to/from the database, again, thanks to a full and complete set of instructions on how to do so in the first post of the plugin.
That being said, the plugin is still in a working state, and has been for a very long time, netting over 13K downloads in its most recent version. So I ask again, why is the thread locked for a fully functioning plugin?
The very nature of this plugin is to allow the community to add and remove spells from the plugin's database to enhance the performance of the plugin. A plugin that is still fully functional, but we cannot do that if the thread for the plugin is locked.
As a final note, it was stated by Toxic Player, that the developer was no longer supporting the Zekken plugin, because he had moved on to a paid version, even go as far as mentioning the website's name in one of his posts. First of all, is this not against the ToS of posting on these forums? And second of all, there is no such plugin. The one, and only, plugin that currently exists as a paid version in addition to a free version, is Agil, a gear optimizer and SBing plugin. Third of all, as I stated above, Zekken is still fully functional and still has the support of the developer and the ability to be enhanced by the additions of its user-base.
I ask for the final time, why was a fully functional plugin's thread closed, why was a toxic players attitude, and direct external store site mention not addressed, and why was there no reason posted as to why the thread was closed, so that some type of rebuttal or correction to the situation could be made, or at least understood by the potentially 13K users of Zekken?
I await the answer. Me and my fellow Zekken users.
