Farewell

Great is the art of beginning, but greater is the art of ending
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

I announce that I cease all development and activity in the programming universe indefinitely. My career has reached the turning point I was not expecting for at least another year, leaving me highly off guard and without laid-out plans for this hobby's continuity. I have begun a 5-year residency program in Neurosurgery which is clearly not compatible, time-wise, with programming.

I gave in all my passion for developing, and you gave me back your loyalty and trust, even when I did not deserve that much. Now it is the time for payback. I release all my present and past work as Open Source software, in the hope some talented developer will continue maintaining and expanding my vision of a modern, sleek forum software. The intrinsic flexibility of MyBB is the true hidden gem of an otherwise outdated codebase; I do hope the project can continue and be updated complying to the latest coding standards.

I hereby thank Euan, kawaii, andrewjs18, Ben, Matt, Omar G., effone, Eric J., Devilshakerz, Wildcard, JordanMussi and all the other team members I have had the opportunity to work with when I was a MyBB team member. I thank Tomm M, my mentor, who inspired me to pick up coding with his piece-of-art plugins. And finally, I thank all of you MyBBoost subscribers who have helped me getting through my toughest university years economically.

Yours sincerely, Filippo

merging 2 accounts, possible bug in beta 5

@Shade,

I'm still running beta 5 on my big board, so please forgive me if this has been fixed in beta 6...hopefully I'll upgrade to beta 6 in the next few days...

I had a merchant sign up on my site about 6 months ago, but didn't post much nor did he subscribe to become an official merchant on my board. said merchant signed back up today using a new account and signed up for the subscription through bankpipe. after realizing this, I merged his new account in with the his old account.

bankpipe beta 5 doesn't know how to handle this correctly, so it wipes out any visual information in the payment history. I'm not sure if it retains any data in the database. perhaps bankpipe should run some update operations like mybb does when 2 accounts are merged.
