This really gets me and I am totally baffled how Pommes and abufrejoval complain so much.

I am software developer and if we released something like dss lite all the time trying to satisfy a bunch of complainers that do not contribute (money mostly!) anything to the
community, other than tell everyone how something should be free in their terms!! I would be looking for work!

You see if our small graphic company did this all the time I would be out of a job and most software engineers work very hard to give you the best experience possible.

But seeing all these issues over the registration is all about you just getting extra equipment - this is a no brainer!!

You know if the electric company gave you free power, I wonder if you would complain that they did not provide you with a UPS, if the power was to be down for a day What has this world come to.. just Unbelievable!!!

And shame on Open-E for not charging for DSS lite!!!!!

I would be glad to pay $100.00 to have mine registered and to squelch the leachers that do not respect the work that goes into any development. I know they lack the knowledge and do not understand the complexity of what it takes, but my god why not charge to pay for the servers that run the forum, engineers, advertising, documentation, updates…...

These are the things that make a software guy go ballistic.

SO SHAME ON BOTH OF YOU!!

This is for all the complainers!

When you make things free to “humans” they become domesticated like animals on a farm and never do much to earn it themselves and soon draw on your efforts. Take it all away and they will hate you for it for many generations to come.
