[Poll] Why don't you write filters for proxomitron?

[Kye-U]

I didn't vote in the poll because I still write filters for Proxomitron; they're either site-specific or for a "batch conversion" job (find/replace mostly, for work).
Occasionally I'll get some "grand idea" and write a generic filter, like my "Image Thumber", "Bypass Download Countdown Timers" filters.

I like to share, so you'll find that I post some pretty weird filters, such as my "Kill Suspected Landing Pages" and "Nocturnal Surfing Mode" filters. I know that someone out there would find some benefit from the filters, so that's why I post them. Take for instance my "Nocturnal Surfing Mode" filter: I know that someone out there is a night creature like me and squints whenever an excessively bright page loads up.

I enjoy the process of filter-writing: recognizing an issue with a site/many sites, thinking of solutions/methods, researching on how to transcribe your thoughts to code, then finally, testing and more testing until I'm satisfied with the filter.

As for the purpose of "TUOPF", the main purpose is to provide support to those who need it, be it Proxomitron or some other issue. While surfing around different forums, I've read that some people are afraid to ask for help with Proxomitron due to the "elitist" attitude those with "more Proxomitron knowledge" exhibit to those who ask questions. I want this to be a healthy learning environment, and also at the same time an environment where different talents and skill sets can combine collaboratively to solve problems (aka, produce filters). I don't want people afraid to ask for help.

Be assured, the low forum activity will not affect my wish to keep TUOPF up and running! So keep posting, keep asking questions.
