you really can't blame people for missing wau, it's just so easy to run once a day before you log in. You should release the software to curse or something heh.
still no reason to go ballistic over something that is provided free of charge
Your second quote of me is like I explained not OK, but I said already:
"And I must say I used the wrong words because I just didn't knew what happend!"
And I'm sorry for that...
I was reading opinions for over a hour and found no facts... I was angy and venting it...
@Ydrisselle
I'm kind of a poweruser... I tested nearly every addon on this side. I don't steal bandwith 'cause I update only every few days and I also wrote tutorials in my home language about how to use WAU and specific addons and create profiles and other general things so that people won't come here to bother you with dumb questions! And I always give credit to the devs!!!
But now I don't know if I should write a tuto how to switch to CC or tell them to GTFO from ace... 'cause thats like how I feel now!

Don't feel like that. Most if not all, just had some share of flaring up.
The first camp is the "venting out-surprised" group.
The second camp is the "so many threads and posts about the same topic that mostly have words 'it sucks', 'bring back WAU', and implied "you made a wrong decision" and "you failed".
Add those two together, both camps will definitely flare up. Once everyone cools down, we'll be fine. That includes me, honestly, I dont deny that.
For now, test CC, if you are not happy with it, dont use it yet. Try to tell your countrymen to do it manually temporarily until CC becomes something you all will enjoy using. ^_^
And check the FAQ I compiled, see what you can add ;) Much appreciated.
I followed your steps! Works perfect! Then I reverted everything to the state before and tried the CC. Actually it working half as bad as I thougt!
I will tell my community everything about CC, waiting and changing!
My guide was read like 30k times and I have about 500 visits a day on my page about using ACE! So I think I will make a lot of people happy and unconfused with the information I got here!
Every addon is now WITH externals I don't need Lib"..."? I got that right?
Will this mode be there again in the future? I liked WITHOUT externals because it was faster!

That is correct. Regarding WITHOUT Externals, the devs are working on that. CC is a work in progress (i.e. Beta like the AddOns on WoWAce/Curseforge) thus not everything is implemented yet. I prefer the disembedded way of doing things myself, however I am currently going embedded until the bugs with CC are worked.
Good to hear that the w/o externals are being look thorugh.
Thought Curse will scrap it since most people will download the whole addon manually through their website and w/o additonal program (WAU/CC) there's no way one can keep track and download the disembbed addons manually w/o messing up something along the way

Don't let them see you type "ACE"...that implies an acronym, like "Another Clerical Error"
It's very interesting to me. I've almost exclusively used Ace addons for the last couple of years. I really liked the way everything was laid out and the updater was really handy and worked well enough.
Then, out of nowhere I hear through the grapevine that the bandwidth monster was eating through the pocketbook so a "change" was incoming. Sad, but what can you do, right?
So I end up here in this thread and from what I can tell, this place is a complete @sshole parade. Between the "if you don't like it then leave" mentality, and a general undercurrent of animosity, you don't have to tell me once, let alone twice. I will be leaving promptly. I can tell when "outsiders" aren't welcome. Pardon me for intruding. I was lead to believe this was a more "public" forum.
However, I would like to say that I'm sad to see the updater go. Despite my objections to how they "run their business", I did actually give the Curse updater a try and I was less than pleased, to say the least.
So, I'm taking your advice. I'm leaving, I won't be back, and I won't be using the Curse updater either.
Thanks for all those days that Ace made my mod updates smooth as silk. At this point, once the expansion comes out, I'll be scrapping all my mods (specifically the Ace ones) and starting over from scratch. That's probably a good thing anyway, so I guess it all works out in the end.
Good luck to all of you with your future endeavors.
Apparently the poster was gravely insulted, made an account just to say he is leaving all Ace addons for what they are. I said bye.
It's simple really, after repeating the same thing nicely for quite a while, you get numbed out by it, you simply give up because most don't read stickies, nor search (though I must admit, afaik the search on the site currently isn't functioning properly) so you just say stuff bluntly.
I don't mind normal users, when they come here with suggestions or ideas in a concise manner. Sadly, quite a few of them came here to post "I want WAU back! Change is evil, Curse is evil". It's those posts that get me to be painfully bitchy. :P
I just wanted to thank you all for the efforts you have put in in the past, and I'm sure in the future. yes I will miss WAU but I'm sure without having to worry about all us noobs downloading all the time, you will be able to come up with better and better add's. I do hope that this site will continue to strife to create some of the best addons I have ever used.
good luck and wish ya all the best
You're fine, don't worry. The change was needed, has been made. So now it will be ok. Just be patient for the quirks to get sorted, and in due time, I do think CC will be ok as well.

And I must admit that I nearly found every addon with the CC!

Proper usage is simply "Ace"
