Maybe i made myself not very clear. Sorry about that.
I mention this as reading topics here shows the same behavior.
People complain. Specific people here keep responding how the
complainer needs to do it themselves or pay for it. Tracing the
people that "complained" there post history, shows that most of
them simply do not post anymore, after being told to do it
themselves.
I do not want to wast people there time, i only responded to this
here because its obvious pattern. I agree that this seems to be a
very small community and it is hard to get things done in a small
community. But it is counter productive to constantly tell people
that there is no solution, they need to do it or pay for it. Its
like hearing a broken record that keeps skipping to the same beat.
People who have the time and willingness to do so, WILL do it
themselves without being told on a forum. All the rest is simply
negative PR for the people who lurk ( not post ) and read the
comments.
The 'we' refers to me and my colleague. And 'we' do mean that the
amount of posting here that ask people to do the work is way more
then on other language forums. We understand the reasoning but
its about first impressions. And when anybody reads comments
stating the above too many times, it simply feels like the
community is too small to support the language. Causation and
effect. The more pushing does not result in more people actually
contributing. It can have the reverse effect of actually pushing
people away.
Its beating a dead horse because i expect that months from now,
the same pattern will still be here. Need to get back to actual
work or the boss will be less happy. And that person pushing that
much more effect :)
