I don't see why this is such a big deal, who cares about thanks? I've been using Orape and have been the one updating clients using the program for the past idk three weeks? When 'thanks' was disabled I still uploaded them, answered every question (don't hold me to that, there were some really stupid ones). I don't do it for the thanks, I think I'm fairly helpful with my description as well, there's no need for this really. I'll upload 2 clients each time with the same mods inside of them, and if someone gets to it before me, so what? It's a community, I like to help out people. This program was released and is use-able by anyone, I include in each of my posts that I used a program for it, and I didn't make the client at all whatsoever, I just chose what I wanted. I am getting spoon-fed by this Orape updater, so why not spoon-feed them?
This whole stickied thing is just superfluous to me. As long as there's an updated client about an hour after an update by using Orape for everyone to use, everyone will be happy. It'll just be released because it takes no time to make and people will want to use it on the wait for Nilly's client.
For me, I don't care either way, but I think it's fine how it's working out, take away the thanks from it if thanking someone really matters, I don't get why getting thanks is such a priority. It's a community, first one to get it out and help everyone out gets thanked for it, it's the beauty of a hacking community, work together.
I don't really care either way, but it seems pointless. Anyone can make the client anyway.. If anything, sticky the released Orape Auto-Updater
