Guys, the best possible answer is to make our home automation setup work the way we want it in reliable and efficient manner, with or without our EOL veras but with each other's help. That's what we are seeking after all. While keeping our minds open, exploring all the novelties and discussing what we can do to continuously innovate improve and optimize. The vera had an awesome forum with tremendous community of developers. I sensed the end of an era and as much of our time and energy we have spent there, it was not all wasted. The best answer is to move on, not only for the sake of answering but also to refocus on what we aim to do: A community to grow, develop, debate, explore smart home technologies.

He's publishing the truth himself, I don't need to say anything. Honestly, I don't know how he doesn't see that he looks like a fool. I don't want to be ugly with him, but I won't not defend myself.

I petition to move all dev’s Vera plugin forums to here
-
Omg this is really unbelievable!
I read rigpapa is also active with homeassistant.
Is rigpapa also active on this forum? What name? Anyone knows his name on homeassistant?I justed wanted to say, go rigpapa!

@sender he’s known as @toggledbits here!

Shoot... the secret's out now... they'll find me for sure, now...

I'm out of popcorn.. Switching to chocolate

The movies over for me.. got banned. Well I at least asked for it
-
The acting is over... now you can just be a spectator. I thought the thread was closed. Apparently not...
Have to appreciate all the posters for the courage to speak up and try to bring back reason in there. Sure managed to get the guy to come completely unglued. -
@toggledbits you are awesome! Never used reactor but I have seen your involvement and communication and I just wanted to have it said to you.

And the winner in the right corner of last nights MMA Forum Fight is .......Riiiiiiiiiiiiigpapaaaaa.......
So Sad that the other guy cant accept his limits. You cant act as a CEO on a companyforum like you were just an annoying user. If he had stayed off the forum and let Nice guys like Sorin and the others do the talkng i guess the hole forumclimate would be better and ezlo more successful.
Good that you stand up and Don’t let bad People push you down @toggledbits -

Jeeez, he's still ranting. Have any of you ever heard of "confession by projection"?
Edit: It's time to bring the temperature down over there. We all know who we're dealing with. We've made our point. Thank you all who have chimed in on my behalf as well, and offered words of support here. I'm not leaving until he kicks me off. But it's time to let this one die out, cool the temp and let the forum get back to the business of the community. His anger on display won't change anything anyway; the market will sort him out, not me or anyone else here. For myself, I'm getting on with the business of building tools, and if a single-digit percentage of people use my work, I call that a pretty good day.

Clearly deranged. All I ever wanted to do was support openLuup users, and point out that, under the new regime, that was best done here rather than there!

Some people are having way too much free time

Didn't need to explain AK. The guy shows us something green and tells us that it is orange. It's be going on since I was there. Everybody else can see that it is green...

And not enough neurons...
Talk about forum rules.. so many he made up to justify banning people giving feedback and expressing their problems and obviously not applying them to himself. Community users are not possessions or employees... they are customers. He is dictating that everyone be happy with the trash and lies he is feeding people without asking why customers are unhappy. Honest customer feedback is essential to success. In my line of work, we don't let ourselves make a single customer unhappy... not one.
Let him be.

Seeing all these stuff on the other forum, gave me more pressure to really remove my Vera dependency in my current setup!

Use Vera-Decouple from @toggledbits
I still have my Vera (now Plus - I got one new for 80 bucks on eBay as backup and swapped my Edge to be the backup) perfectly decoupled from the cloud, happily doing its ZWave stuff and with 5-6 days of luup uptime for the things I'm still doing locally (like scenes or code to turn on lights in group, or things that are best locally). If they'll turn off their servers, I'll be impacted exactly zero from this. -

Yes, absolutely. Finally time to clone that ZWave dongle and plug it in to ZWay, or elsewhere.

@therealdb i'm using one Vera for my 3 zigbee thermostat (so I can probably replaced them by zwave) and the other one it's only for the DSC plugin, that I need to debug on openLuup directly to bring it back on openLuup (was there a while ago and stop working, already talk about that with AK)
All my zwave devices are since a while in ZWAY!
All my scenes/code/etc... are in openLuup since a while too!
