You are receiving the poor treatment from the Observium team because of all the self-righteous assholes who came before you. Like many (most?) open source projects developers end up spending a great deal of time dealing with users who either do nothing more than complain or claim they fixed everything by changing a “1” to a “0”.

A LOT of open source projects have shutdown for this exact reason, too many assholes to the point where the developers say “fuck it” and just move the project either away from the crowd or just throw in the towel in all together.

Thanks for this extended version of "fuck off derptwat", this is a pretty true (if only part of it) representation of reality for many projects.

If you haven’t already, you should look back through the mailer about all the moaning and bitching done by users when Observium noted they are going to a paid platform. Apparently $150/year is completely outrages…

If there is enough interest, I'll also offer a yearly price for users to be able to be entitled douchebags.

If you look at it from afar, it looks a bit like $150.00/year. But don't come too close to the monitor ;)

@Observium guys, not all of us are complete* assholes J

We keep lists! ;>

I'll not comment at the actual issue at hand, my exact comment on Jira has been posted in this thread multiple times now, and it's just as true as it was 2 hours ago.
