You know what I like most about the Curse client?

And doesn't obey the "Automatically install Curse Profiler" checkbox....

I've edited my previous post to indicate I'm wandering off, but I'll throw one more reply here.

My point is, if addon authors can't be bothered to even update their TOC value, I'm not terribly...

-edit- I will concede a point here, though. I am using FancyBar, an addon from early 2007, that I haven't found as simple of a replacement for. It does throw...

You state it's really not difficult, then go on to say how you violate mod author's rights by creating an unauthorized compilation of addons, then rehost them on WOWI instead of distributing it...

So, I install Curse Client to see what the deal is.

It installs an addon that, as far as I can remember, it never asked permission to install.

At least it wasn't Weatherbug, I guess.

Preemptive preparation for 3.1, for starters. Updates, enhancements, bugfixes as further reasons.

I notice your only addon was updated yesterday. Why'd you do that?

There you go.

This is an argument as old as copyright, as old as money, as old as barter depending on just how you look at it.

It is technically possible for them to do this, and in the past WOWI used to require logins to either search for or download addons. They need to refrain from making the site more difficult to use,...

I'm not certain it is morally wrong. The people who feel they have been wronged surely do. I've created many things in the past that have been included in outright commercial products (Doom and Quake...

Here's the thing. These websites, curse and WoWInterface, are pretty close to openly hostile when you're looking for something. Search for an addon, and it'll gleefully let you download an obsolete...
