XenForo has revoked our license

XenForo is popular forum software known for allowing users to congratulate each other for posts with a large number of whimsical stickers. For years, it has powered the KiwiFarmers’ ability to clap each other on their virtual backs as they abused the disabled, cheered on mass shooters and shared sickening sexual depravity.

Oh no. Not the stickerinos!

I need my internet points to feel good about myself. :stress:
 
Null literally falling for the "rewrite it in Rust" meme lmao
But I guess everything happens for a reason, even if it's bored and butthurt autists spamming letters to a company.
Also just wanna say KF is the only site that actually makes Xenforo run buttery smooth, I see so many other forums using it and they literally feel stuck together with tape. Whatever shit you + other programmers did, it fuckin' works good.
 
I still find it so bizarre, that you can purchase something; use it just fine, and then have an insane faggot scream about you, and so the guy you brought shit from revokes your power to use what you paid for.

Yeah did Xenforo send over some sort of justification or something? A screenshot of a license revocation doesn't really mean anything.

I actually have built forums for corporate clients. It's been a while--vBulletin days, but this is the sort of thing I would advise a client against using due to issues like this. It's extremely unprofessional if they did it just due to complaints from a rando--and to be clear I'm not convinced that is what occurred here.

Is there more info on this?

Also you are going nowhere with a Rust version of the site just give that up haha. Get real.
 
Please make it open source.
Affero GPL so any re.tard using it cannot deny releasing the source and/or crediting the Feeder
Or in maximum FOSS-profit mode, Affero GPL for "free" users, proprietary for "Premium" users.

The Qt company, of Qt-GUI fame, does this dickery, where certain modules are strict-GPL so it can only be used in GPL software *or* by paying the Qt Company for a commercial license. Other projects do the same, IIRC Gitlab does it.
