Fizzy, (see, now almost all this post is gonna be towards you... not all but almost.)
When I say complaining, I speak of repeating the problem. If someone posts a bug report twice, I would call that complaining. Maybe it's not... maybe it's simply double posting. But in my vocabulary, flawed as it is, I call it complaining. I don't mean to cause problems by having different definitions than you.
Your opinion was helpful, was welcome. However, all I could read from your previous replies was that you wanted this mod added and that you felt this issue was over-rulingly important. So, to respond to that, I replied saying (to both you and Fizzy) that it was not going to be added. That was paragraph one, which was directed at both of you. The next part I directed at you was to say that this feature was not the end of the world (or the end of a forum account) and that I was not going to follow what I felt your advice was, and bend over backwards to break everything I've tried to do in SMF just so a few more URLs can be indexed.
Perhaps some changes I make here go more than un-noticed. In fact, I could probably name at least one feature that not a single soul except me knows about. I try to make people aware of these changes, and even post about them. However, the fact is that repeating the problem (saying again and again that pages are not getting indexed.) is not going to make me more likely to solve it - it's going to make me less. This is just how I am, personally... if I've started working on something, and someone goes on about it more and more, I stop.
Right now I'm waiting. I'm waiting to see if this change fixed anything. Even if it were the most important feature in not only the world but universe, I would be powerless to get Google to tell me whether my last change solved anything.
I'm sorry if my post was unclear. I'm sorry if it was difficult to see what I meant by some of it, or difficult to see who I was talking to. I'm sorry if the amplitude of my reply was unguagable.
Again, Fizzy, I listen to your input. I listen to all input - I have read every single topic in this board, meaning even every single post in those topics. I have not skipped one single topic, whether it was yours, Jack's, John's, Clark's, or Mike's. However, once I read it... I am the only person who can tell my self how to take that input.
Perhaps I will put it off.. perhaps I will ignore it simply because I don't care. But, in this case, I am doing things about it - your input is being heard and something is being done. But, now that I've done something, going left and right on it is just going to cause problems like people deleting their accounts.
