Hey everyone.
I'm writing this Post to just go over WebWareBox now and why I want it gone. Anyways, let's get into it.
So, for those who don't know, WebWareBox is a piece of Software that you can install onto your Website. It let's Users upload Programs, Music, Files etc. The Project was originally created by me and was soon Open-Sourced under CodeForum.org. I ended up Resigning from my Position as the Lead-Developer not too long ago but then became the Co-Contributor of the Project.
Anyways, in the past month, I have developed a hatred to WebWareBox. There are multiple Reasons why and so let me list them all for you:
I now hate WebWareBox and also despise it. I don't want it to exist anymore and the Project deserves to be wiped from GitHub and the internet entirely. I did enjoy working on WebWareBox during the first couple of months. Even during the Re-Write, I still enjoyed working on it. It was only around mid-late August that I just started to not like it anymore and wanted to get away from it. As stated above, I stressed myself out, the Code wasn't really that great in my Opinion, I hated working with HTML, CSS and PHP and I had done pretty much everything that I could do.
But, i had established a Design-Language for the Project and planned to modify Pages that didn't fall in the Guidelines of that Design-Language. Needless to say, I didn't do it. Then, I made the final Version of the Logo that was about to be used.
About two days or so after the creation of the final Logo, I just gave-up, deleted everything from the Master-Branch, deleted my GitHub and CF Account, removed the Project from OpenHub and left. In my Account Deletion-Message to @Malcolm here on CF, I specifically said to him:
And so, with my hatred of WebWareBox(And all of you, probably tired of me talking about it), I now propose that the Repository of the Project be deleted and that all Posts and Threads related to the Project, to also be deleted(But do not delete this Thread).
Thank you for reading.

Anyways, in the past month, I have developed a hatred to WebWareBox. There are multiple Reasons why and so let me list them all for you:
- Code that isn't great but isn't bad either(I'm a person who wants Code to look good).
- Having to work with HTML, CSS and PHP(It's only now I've started hating working with HTML and CSS. As for PHP, I don't know anything about it other than Comments, echo "" and Variables).
- I've done everything I could do.
- Got bored working on the Project.
- Stressed myself out on the Project.
- Some annoying things happening along the way(One annoying thing that happended is @Malcolm, taking everything out of the src/ Directory and putting everything in the Root-Directory. According to him[If I can remember], it was too make everything a lot easier to access. That was BS).
- Since I was focusing too much on it, I literally had no time to focus on anything else.
I now hate WebWareBox and also despise it. I don't want it to exist anymore and the Project deserves to be wiped from GitHub and the internet entirely. I did enjoy working on WebWareBox during the first couple of months. Even during the Re-Write, I still enjoyed working on it. It was only around mid-late August that I just started to not like it anymore and wanted to get away from it. As stated above, I stressed myself out, the Code wasn't really that great in my Opinion, I hated working with HTML, CSS and PHP and I had done pretty much everything that I could do.
But when I had done pretty much everything, that's when Development began to slow down. So, I resorted to writing Documentation. Those pieces of Documentation only took about 2-3 days to make and after I had done them, I had nothing else to do.I had done pretty much everything that I could do.
But, i had established a Design-Language for the Project and planned to modify Pages that didn't fall in the Guidelines of that Design-Language. Needless to say, I didn't do it. Then, I made the final Version of the Logo that was about to be used.
About two days or so after the creation of the final Logo, I just gave-up, deleted everything from the Master-Branch, deleted my GitHub and CF Account, removed the Project from OpenHub and left. In my Account Deletion-Message to @Malcolm here on CF, I specifically said to him:
But, I did also say:Please delete the WebWareBox Repository.
That second Quote, I wish I had never said. Because now, the Repository is just sitting on it's hands with nothing being done on it. There hasn't even been a single Contribution in the past Week with the only Contribution being the Master-Branch Wipe.If you want to continue the Project, you may do so.
And so, with my hatred of WebWareBox(And all of you, probably tired of me talking about it), I now propose that the Repository of the Project be deleted and that all Posts and Threads related to the Project, to also be deleted(But do not delete this Thread).
Thank you for reading.
