the point is that an open-source application can be community-improved ... others can come and develop some stuff that could be added to your software, or fix bugs, or at last others can learn from your source ... yet this is for ppl that have common sens and would respect the original author of a software for their hard work ... truly, there are kids that would come, take the source, redesign it and claim that its theirs ... but in the case of this application why it should matter? ... if you and the contributors to this software would constantly update it why should it matter? caz your application will always be the most updated and everybody will still be using your application ... or at last this is my point of view ... I always encourage open-source development for applications that are free to use and will never get to be sold for $ ... and you never know when a good intended man will come and want to help with the development and its fully rejected and you lose a valuable contributer ...
From my point of view ... what I would have done is a post like "[open-source] Community driven private server bot - most updated!" ... a very nice looking thread where everything is clearly specified ... a list of credits for ppl that contribute to the application and what they've done or fixed and that would encourage ppl to contribute even more ... and the final result should be a much more clean, bug-less and feature-full application ... all contributors will be happy to have and take part in a project like this and the common-users of the application will have more trust in it since its open-source and they are clearly aware that an open source application will never contain any malware ...
I am sorry for this block of text but I just had to say it
... anyways ...
