I am sorry I was not “useful” to you
I think that would only be a valid complaint if you were paying me to solve your problem, which you are not.
I have no idea where your problem came from. If I had, I would have told you.
Fact is that I have updated many, many hundreds of forums to 3.3.0 and up and I did not came across this issue a single time, so this seems more like a configuration issue than a bug.
Nevertheless, I was happy to help you with your configuration issue, but before I could, you said you were going back to latest stable. When I warned you, you basically said you didn’t care. In my experience, many issues come from actions like this that happened in the past and they can surface even after many years, so I felt like I should warn you (again) for that. I even put in a smiley.
I understand your frustration, but I am not accepting anything as “it is what it is” and I do not understand why you are accusing me of that. If you still think that anything I said is “damaging to the project”, feel free to elaborate in a PM. no, on second thoughts, don’t. It’s your problem then and not mine.
