marketing strategy. look at all of the default modules. they are each one lacking functionality that would bring them out of the dark ages. though, from an economic perspective leaving off just enough to be able to provide an enhanced version, is crucial to income.
even today, i am still sitting here wondering, why are the modules not set to install with an order of precedence, and instead of showing a failed to install message, why not state that there is a dependency for that module to be installed?
there are so many unanswered questions about this script.
why has the flash apps not been updated since 1987
why does RMS crash out after 2GB of RAM usage
why does the mass mailer not function
why is the language settings "search" not actually a search but a filter
why are the page design elements so limited that you have to stick to a box design
why do you have recompile the language strings
why do you have to clear the cache every time you blink your eyes
why are there no moderation controls
why are those default membership levels not removable
why is there not better control over Access to each module utilizing membership levels
why why why why
nobody knows, but these are legitimate questions, but they get ignored, because they are not important at boonquarters.
