If i want to start to develop spring for increase my technical challenge i should not do destructive changes? How could you feel yourself if i will register from a lot of accounts and make own changes in project that kill all of your job? I will do it for my increase my self-confidence as developer but i don;'t think that you will like it.

I think there is should be rules and vector of development. Maybe it should be testers/players requests.
But you can't make changes to our version of the code because you don't have permissions...
If you want to break everything on your own copy - feel free :)

Noone is stopping you from boosting your selfconvindence!

We neither have the power to stop that nor do we want it.

So why do you missuse your power and stop us from playing?
With open source, even we don't have the power to do that

Once there was a motor (some say "engine"), a car and drivers.
The car was much loved by drivers, but as time progressed and technology advanced it became on oldtimer.
There were some brave (and reckless) engineers that tried to update the car to work with the every advancing motors, but the drivers didn't like the new car.
The engineers knew that at some point the oldtimer would not be allowed to drive on public roads anymore. The engineers knew that even with a lot of effort, they could never make the oldtimer sound exactly like before, if it had a new engine. So they took the liberty and made even more adjustments. Thus it was even harder to make it sound like the old engine. So the engineers and the drivers had difficulties finding common ground. They fought a lot about the sound of the new car and ultimately nobody was left to work on it.
Then came the time to save the planet and remove pollution from the air and old engines were forbidden.
Now the drivers cannot driver their beloved oldtimer any more and yell at the anti pollution policy.

The BA9/PA offices were actually unoccupied, which brings me back to point 1) of viewtopic.php?p=590653#p590653.

The only reason BA10 migrated to 104 is that its developers liked the engine.

Sure, 104+ may have exposed some weaknesses in the lobby update system. Such technical issues can be fixed though, social ones less easily.

RickHustle wrote:The balance of BA has changed and many people do not like it.
While that's regrettable if you are a fan of "old" BA (wherever you draw the line), player balance preferences are not really our problem to worry about.

RickHustle wrote:These updates of the engine versions do not bring any changes in terms of fixing bugs
1) look at mantis or the commit log if you want to know what and how much is getting done
2) sticking with 103 forever in your own little private bubble universe doesn't bring any changes either, wouldn't you agree?

The car could have been driven 20 more years and being used for its purpuse. While now its rusting in the garage people have to walk and hope for mighty developers to appear to maybe build a new car sometime else

And why should be the engineers of the old motor be the ones to decide which new motor should drive your car?

our garage, our motor and our streets.

also this really goes off-topic. there are several hints about how to you could solve your issues / improve the situation.

And why would engineers choose a new motor that excludes women (mac users) from driving?

because we like to build a new and better motor: women just don't have a key to start the new engine. :-P

still: IMHO there are no nice real world examples to explain the situation.

I think i have just seen a glitch on this last post.
1 min ago i read "next off topic post i will split the post".
Now it magically changed to "from now on i'll (try to) not respond to offtopic posts."
Very suspicious...
Bug?

It's not players or engine devs fault that a new engine version of BA hasn't been adopted yet.

But there's no benefit for engine devs frustration to be taken out on players by restricting version, it doesn't help adoption of new versions, it just divides an already small community for no reason.

BA player like new engines and improved performance, just a popular version that uses new engine hasn't been released yet and that isn't the player's fault. Silver has mentioned he may work on a 105 high performance of BA, however, like you say its a small community and it takes time. I think restricting stuff just risks existing players leaving in the meantime and doesn't really benefit anyone.

Oh sweet summer child. Zerver was the one with the Grand Master plan to remove lua, because ya, that bodes well for the future of that fork.

Edit: and to address Ares comment: If you and most of the people bitching in this thread left, I would venture that the atmosphere would instantly be FAR less toxic, racist, homophobic... So, bon voyage! Don't let the door hit ya on the way out!

whenever I joined BA discord I often saw you spamming racist and homophobic slurs

coming from the inventor of the botflag its pretty rich. your first commit message to BA doesn't make it seem like you have good intentions for the community

I have great proposal for developers wich think that they don't need players. Let's replace url of default Official server to new uberserver of Mando. Developers could to continue their work makes more bugs or kill the project at all as they wish and other people will enjoy their old bugged but worked game. All will be satisfy.
