Hey guys, We've had an internal discussion on this, and I'd like to share our thoughts with you, so you understand where we come from.
In essence, our software is free, but our time isn't. I think we can all agree that it's in our best interest as users that we charge for our services and reinvest for a better product. I understand that it's hard to justify getting a support contract for the occasional small issue that shouldn't take "more than 5 minutes to fix". But if we give out our software and support for free, what's left? With this, I'd like to propose that this forum is here for the community to help itself, but that we avoid requests *specifically *made to the Scalr company or Scalr staff. We prefer a *karma-based* system where the more an individual answers others' questions, contributes to documentation, and adds value for others, and more likely we'll set time aside to investigate an issue, try to reproduce, or develop a fix for them. If any of you know any community management software that would facilitate this, kind of like ohloh.net's kudos (http://meta.ohloh.net/kudos/), please let us know. Thoughts?
