What happened (again?)

Why I stay away from customize.org

What the heck's happened to that place I used to call "home" for skinning? Heck customize.org was the place where i was first introduced to Stardock products (while I was looking for blackbox themes, but of course I've stopped using that ages ago), but the place has really seemed to go downhill. It now seems to be predominately a bunch of MS bashers, minimalist-hackers, and piraters....ah how I hate piraters ...just look at a post made today in a Windows Vista post

"I'll probably just "test" a pirated copy.
If its any good, I'll use it."


Then of course another reply to the post

"I was joking, by the way. I think we all know that we here at Custo are planning to mod the hell out of this thing anyway. When is Litestep for Vista coming out?"
Ack! It's just a community of modders/hackers/piraters REALLY doesen't appeal to me >_<, and to think it used to be a better place, meh, oh well. They bash Brad about DesktopX 3.1 (as well as other programs by Stardock though they're all EXCELLENT! But No...they bash it because it's not free, welcome to reality guys! It's one thing to give a calm mature opinion that you prefer one program over another, but to just flat out bash it?!)
As seen here:
"What about Litestep and VBscript?
Granted it cant do it all, but still, paying for a customization util seems funny.
Who would buy it?"
Well Brad nice to see you really smacked him down on that
Once I discovered WindowBlinds there it led to me OD, and I've been sold on that and WC ever since, and always will be, haha.
So yeah, sorry for the rant(and the double-post), I just wanted to get that out of my system.

I checked it out just now - looks like quite a few immature egos over there, still building themselves up by knocking something (or someone) else down. Makes one wonder what they might have actually created on their own.
