So Paxton and Stian should stay wiht PHP5.2 and remove features from the AAC because PPL are to lazy to update there webservers?
2.
With breaking the license you kinda doing a "Criminal act" so Paxton could start suing ppl that wont follow it.
Ain't it better that they just get a warning and nothing really happens?
3.
If you don't know anything about php/apache/xampp etc then why do you even have a website?
If you are going to use a program you should first learn what it is and how it works..

Just don't be stupid.. omg
1. I'm just pointing out that having dynamic functions would be better. So that when you have a feature active, you can benefit from it, if you don't then it won't prevent the website from functioning at all.
Look at vBulletin and Invision Power Board; They have dynamic requirements, and their software will adapt to what you have (within limits), and if something is missing then simply disable the part of the software that relies on that function.
Also sweetie, I wasn't talking about lazy, I was talking about big companies who would loose A LOT of money if they had to shut down their servers every time PHP/Apache/Whatever decides to release an update. They plan ahead and decide that "every this and this date we will update", not "Oh look they released a new patch, lets shut down the servers again just like we did 3 days ago because PHP updated their software 0.1 version higher".
2. Paxton already clarified this, please read his post.
3. I really fail to see how this relates to my post.
4. Not entirely sure what you ment by this, but I'm going to take the high road here and assume it wasn't directed towards me.
@Paxton:
That's really good to know
All though please keep in mind that most ISPs assigns their customers a dynamic IP, thus if you blacklist an IP, the "bad person" just have to reset their modem and/or network card, and presto, new IP. Additionally, this means an unlucky sod who just happens to get this blacklisted IP after rebooting his modem, will be blocked from all ModernACC servers, despite not doing anything. (Because he got the blacklisted IP ment for the "bad person" who escaped it by resetting his modem/network card)
