Poll: If the developers removed the paperclip, I would...
live life as nothing ever happened
would cry for about 10 minutes, then accept the fact that it's useless
whine...whine....whine...whine......
start a protest and petition to have it added back
...die...my life is dependent on the paperclip!

And be nice, he was only making a suggestion!
Who was being mean? I don't see how adding one more setting though would make MyBB less user-friendly..

I think he was just making a generalization in which there is a reverse correlation between the KISS principle and the amount of settings you have. And I do tend to agree with that generalization.

RE: The paperclip
I think that if the paperclip stays, you might as well add it to the "Thread subscriptions" page.

RE: The paperclip
I use the paperclip alot to know if any attachments are in the thread and how many. I don't think it should suffer the same fate as Microsoft Clippit.
