♥Tsimi Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 just stumbled over this old topic http://www.oscommerce.com/forums/topic/366941-chemo-banned/ and i was curious, why or how could this happen to a member of osC forum? and what happend to Linda McGrath? when i was using Milestone 2 she was around here and there and added alot contributions (old name for add-ons). is she banned too? or did she retire because of old age?
burt Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 Bobby sadly passed away, so do we need to bring up the reasons why he was banned from this forum ? Suffice to say that for a forum member of his calibre and expertise to be banned is an unusual step, and it taken only in extreme circumstances and only for very good reason (* see note below regards new members). Linda and a bunch of other shopowners forked osCommerce into ZenCart. * - if someone new comes in and does something against the rules, eg a spam link, they are immediately banned, no questions asked and no chances given.
♥Tsimi Posted January 7, 2014 Author Posted January 7, 2014 regarding chemo that is really sad to hear, i mean that he passed away. R.I.P. regarding linda why would she or others do that? why the sudden change to fork osC? i know zencart. they just changed all "tep_" to "zen_" and for my skill level the code was difficult to handle. well....too bad.... do you know what happen to Ingo Malchow from the german osC forum?
burt Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 I guessed Linda and the other few believed that they could do a better job. I don't know about Ingo Malchow.
mhsuffolk Posted January 24, 2014 Posted January 24, 2014 And what about spooks and FWR Media? Live shop Phoenix 1.0.8.4 on PHP 7.4 Working my way up the versions.
burt Posted January 24, 2014 Posted January 24, 2014 What about them? I guess people move on to other software or retire or pass away or emigrate or go to live in a cave. Who knows.
Mort-lemur Posted January 24, 2014 Posted January 24, 2014 @@burt Whats wrong with caves?
