I think that yes allot of the addons failed but it should be up to us if we use them or not, I don't think badspot should be so controlling of the addons that we use.

Each time a broken add-on screws up, guess who has to deal with a horde of help topics being made and a bunch of support emails being sent to him.

Actually, now that RTB has a bug report button (for rtb only) people have been using that to report everything Blockland add-on related (help omg cant spawn a zambie) which is great - I guess less support emails for Badspot. I don't care either, since RTB bug reports are incinerated upon being received.

Yes but, wouldn't it be much better to tell people that if they screw up there game with fail bin stuff that it is there fault and not the responsibility of badspot or the RTB with the bug reports.

During the early days of v9 I used to go onto these forums and say yay I wonder what super cool stuff will be in the fail bin. I still use allot of the stuff I got back them and never once have I had any issues with it.

Something I have noticed about BL over the time I have used it is that everyone's game is different. It could be to do with your OS or what addons you have, but addons work differently for different ppl, and so some things in the fail bin will affect some and not others.

No, that'd be much worse. Giving people the means to screw up their game but telling them not to is just handicapped.
