Well, there are some rules. And threads like these all behave the same. So they are easy to recognize. Do not check first if the problem is real or not (otherwise we have no fun at all). Post that problem (use a catchy subject). Make sure that you implicitely state there is an intentional misconduct. Threaten that you will leave if this will not be changed. If proven untrue then try to twist the words and use emotional blackmail wherever you can. Use personal

Currently my own player is drawing text instead, but in next versions it will use the SD Plugin API. So that means that I have not experimented with these myself. Do you mind if ask the Masters of Disaster and make sure you will be CCd?

Wait a minute. This is worse than I thought. You said "Plus, the html use by the admins ect may be cute, but I find it offensive." That means you implicitely state that there is a intentional misconduct. Then you threaten to go when this will not be changed with "therefore not deserving of my continued support." You are doing the same as the guy who started the thread. [Message

A lot of these threads have a scheme like "If you will not comply then I will go". Sometimes additional emotional blackmail is added to make it more of a melodrama.

White_Moth: You forgot the melodrama. Statements like "Just a few more things to think about, otherwise I see Wincustomize becoming just like "all the rest", and therefore not deserving of my continued support." is exactly that. [Message Edited]

White_Moth: Only Admins are using HTML because they are beta testing it. It will be made available to members shortly. You make think that this is offensive, but like you stated "Remember, no matter how smart you think you are - your not." and "It is always easier to find fault than to find solutions, let us all work harder, and together."

That was an interesting thread. You first suggested bad practices by selecting the thread name. When several admins explained the situation the melodrame went on. Then you changed the nick and played the victim. I am Dutch, so English is not my native language, but even I can understand the satire in parts of Jafo's last post. Threads like these look like cheap soap operas.
