still the possibility exists, that you post your "release" to a different forum and a moderator moves the thread to the community blog.

You expect people to be motivated to do free work when you treat them like second class citizens?

you didn't follow the forum rules, why should we give you more permissions?

You expect people to...
We do expect people to follow the forum rules - and this includes not abusing subforum rights that are given for the purposes of sticky/announcing threads. We are also happy to see people who enjoy working on Spring related projects, but we do not expect it of anyone; that part is optional.
I deny that ...
I don't think denial is going to get you anywhere here - of course people are reluctant to give responsibility to those who mis-used it in the past and don't admit error. I can't think of any circumstances in which abusing sticky/announce/etc rights to close a report that was made about one of your own posts, can be viewed favourably. (And, especially not when the report was made by a moderator, to ask that another moderator handle it.)

You are of course free to give "your side of the story". If you want to ask for subforum rights back (?), a pm to the administrators group is the best place to do it.

Please rename thread, the title is misleading. And also it does not belong in off-topic.

It belongs in pm - off-topic is as good a match as any.

Thanks for changing the title at least, this has nothing to do with admin permissions.It is related to spring though quite a bit, which is why i don't believe it belongs in the off-topic section:

But of course you can have different opinions about that. But since about 50% of all threads get split into the off-topic section, this is soon becoming the only "topic" section, ironically. :)

Au contraire - amongst currently active threads, you have only viewtopic.php?f=10&t=35052 for company in the off-topic forum.

This one should continue in pm, if wanted.
