MyBB needs to stabilise its code for a long period and not keep upgrading and breaking everything that others have made for it. Blame the "Management" for the lack of / and loss of coders who were once interested in MyBB but eventually tired of continually upgrading their work, and for what? Just to do it all over again and again. MyBB and some of the dyed-in-the-wool senior members / mods there are of the opinion that MyBB is the greatest thing since sliced-bread! and seem to expect that everyone else should think the same; and that they should contribute a lot of time for not even so much as a thank you. Such as it is.

I'm going to have to disagree with you there.  Most plugins work fine even after upgrades.  Only things break if we go across major releases.
It's very difficult to keep compatibility if you want to continually improve a product.
I don't mind if people don't say "thankyou" or similar.  I give things away for free without that expectation.  It's the internet after all.  I do, however, mind idiotic complaints and requests.
