Well, I’m not jumping through the hoops nor barking like a seal for no fish. SCROOOM comes to mind, as I’m pretty irritated by this experience. You guys have something that might be put to a greater good, but forcing a would-be user to navigate through all these shoals of treacherous currents, pulling you this way, then that way and heading for the rocks all the time, well… I just pulled the plug on my own effort before I screwed up a perfectly decent running server.

Settle whatever pathologies you guys have amongst you, have a fist-fight out back if need be… whatever! But, get SOMETHING settled and publish this thing with a common set of install tools. To me, tar doesn’t cut it. That ‘package’ installer seemed to be a common demoninator between tar and rpm, which I prefer.

I want to use worldforge to provide therapy for the 2 million locked up in prisons in the US. OK, I’m political and wish to bring about some social change. I cannot use this because of your internal differences and hodgepodge of installation methodologies. If it isn’t cohesive, there is evidence of a basic lack of teamwork, and I’ll use the word again, empathy. That’s what our program means to bring to convicted criminals, who also lack empathy towards their victims. Meditate on my installation experience, and put aside your differences. They are in the way of some serious use for your system, and that is an abuse of my time, while trying to achieve a goal. I’m sorry, I judge this a blowout, and worse, not the ‘Right Thing’.
