He has a history of going through, and casting punitive 1- star reviews of plugins all predicated on a false basis, and consistently abused the devs (ourselves included). Since you’re a mod, how else do you suggest dealing with these types of individuals that are ultimately destructive to the community, and drive away devs? (This all stemmed from a back channel complaint from a fellow dev). * This isn’t about like or not like at all. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Share on Social] Sorry, Can't Use It](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sorry-cant-use-it/) * [etcio](https://wordpress.org/support/users/etcio/) * (@etcio) * [11 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sorry-cant-use-it/#post-5573416) * “The problem”, mythusmage, is the fact that you’re an _[ profanity redacted ]_. You still haven’t learned that you shouldn’t abuse people that volunteer their time in a way that inures to your benefit. * I’m going to continue to follow your trail and call you out for the _[ also redacted]_ you are wherever you go. * Keep it up, champ. Maybe one day you’ll learn to engage people in a mutually respectful way that acknowledges the fact that you provide absolutely nothing to the community, and only detract from it. * [@maithilish](https://wordpress.org/support/users/maithilish/) – don’t be sorry. Trust me, this clown not using your stuff is absolutely the best thing that could happen to you. He’s been going around harassing and abusing devs on a number of different plugins because he’s an ignorant buffoon who doesn’t realize he’s technically illiterate. Unfortunately, his lack of self-awareness also fuels his caustic attitude. * Ignorance is bliss, as they say – except for everyone else. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Aesop Story Engine] Why WPMU?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/why-wpmu/) * Plugin Contributor [etcio](https://wordpress.org/support/users/etcio/) * (@etcio) * [11 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/why-wpmu/#post-5561098) * I’m waiting with bated breath. * On another note, it takes an incredible amount of gall for someone to give a plugin a 1 star review, all based on a false notion, and then come back wanting support to install it all over again. (Again, with problems stemming from user error) * Forum: [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/reviews/) In reply to: [[NextScripts: Social Networks Auto-Poster] A Serious Problem](https://wordpress.org/support/?post_type=topic&p=7888821) * [etcio](https://wordpress.org/support/users/etcio/) * (@etcio) * [11 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/?post_type=topic&p=7888821#post-7888898) * NextScripts and Peter: We’ve had our own run in with this guy. [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/why-wpmu](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/why-wpmu) * Mythusmage: you owe these guys an apology, as well as a retraction of your 1 star review. Everything that the author said is 100% true. WP Core handles all matters of installing, updating and removing of plugins. It is very likely that it was cacheing that caused the issue you’re referring to. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Aesop Story Engine] Why WPMU?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/why-wpmu/) * Plugin Contributor [etcio](https://wordpress.org/support/users/etcio/) * (@etcio) * [11 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/why-wpmu/#post-5561085) * [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/a-serious-problem](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/a-serious-problem) * Actually, mythusmage, I whole heartedly implore you to find another platform to work with that may be more in line with your competencies. * I don’t mind ignorance, but your ignorance lacks self-awareness. Beyond that, you’re malicious, and you act destructively based on that ignorance. * From what I can tell reading your post history, this is the typical cycle. * 1) You screw up the plugin or due to your ignorance, you errantly expect a certain outcome. 2) You then reflexively blame the plugin authors and then audaciously rate their plugin one star. 3) You then join their forum, casting aspersions and demean the plugin authors. * You have no idea what you’re doing or talking about. You’ve proven that unequivocally just in this exchange. You are precisely the reason why so many people end up leaving open source. They can’t stand having to put up with this kind of buffoonery. * I have yet to come across someone in this community who is more destructively ignorant than you are. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Aesop Story Engine] Why WPMU?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/why-wpmu/) * Plugin Contributor [etcio](https://wordpress.org/support/users/etcio/) * (@etcio) * [11 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/why-wpmu/#post-5561080) * Firstly, WPMU is a company. WordPress Multi-User no longer exists. It’s now called multisite and baked into core. [https://mu.wordpress.org/](https://mu.wordpress.org/) * Secondly, Aesop runs on both single and multisite installs without a problem. * Thirdly, what does multisite have to do with space? * Fourthly, I heartily suggest your educate yourself on WordPress matters before cavalierly making erroneous declarations or passing along misinformation. The statements you’re making with authority about this plugin (and WordPress) are categorically false. * Fifthly, if you’d like assistance, ask for it. Coming onto the forums guns ablazing when the issues seem to stem from user error probably isn’t a good way to start the conversation. We develop this open source for your benefit. We just request that you have some patience and perspective. * That is, unless you’re trying to invoke a “feeling of contempt.” * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Aesop Story Engine] Why WPMU?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/why-wpmu/) * Plugin Contributor [etcio](https://wordpress.org/support/users/etcio/) * (@etcio) * [11 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/why-wpmu/#post-5561056) * What are you blathering about? What does Aesop have to do with WPMU? * Forum: [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/reviews/) In reply to: [[Aesop Story Engine] Too Persnickity](https://wordpress.org/support/?post_type=topic&p=7891717) * Plugin Contributor [etcio](https://wordpress.org/support/users/etcio/) * (@etcio) * [11 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/?post_type=topic&p=7891717#post-7891747) * Kudos. Your wit matches your technical acumen. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Aesop Story Engine] Warning](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/warning-55/) * Plugin Contributor [etcio](https://wordpress.org/support/users/etcio/) * (@etcio) * [11 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/warning-55/#post-5370565) * [@mythusmage](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mythusmage/) – I’m not sure if you’re just trolling everyone right now. You’re either a simpleton or pretending to be a simpleton. I’m giving you the benefit of the doubt and going with the latter. * Since you already have a terrible attitude, deep sense of entitlement, propensity for breaching decorum, are overtly obtuse on technical matters and incredibly spiteful, may I suggest another profession or hobby where you don’t have to rely on the contribution of others? * BTW: Where’s your contribution to the community that allows you to galavant on your high horse, doling out 1 star judgments based on false premises? * Forum: [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/reviews/) In reply to: [[Aesop Story Engine] Too Persnickity](https://wordpress.org/support/?post_type=topic&p=7891717) * Plugin Contributor [etcio](https://wordpress.org/support/users/etcio/) * (@etcio) * [11 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/?post_type=topic&p=7891717#post-7891745) * mythusmage – the sense of entitlement that allows you to demand frictionless use of a free plugin, or you give it one star, is breathtaking. You represent everything that’s wrong in the open source community. * This is made ever more contemptible by the fact that it does, indeed, work. Viewing 10 replies - 1 through 10 (of 10 total)
