Comment on Kicksend Practices Part I – Backend & Webparent

"And as a NoScript user, I'll have to carefully consider if I want to whitelist you."

I'm sorry, but this is pretty silly (and getting sillier every year this group of NoScript users continues to fuss about not being able to access working applications without javascript being enabled.)

If you want to cripple yourself, fine; but don't expect developers to bend over backward for .002% of their visitors.

0.002% is an exaggeration, but I understand your point completely. Wasn't intending to come off as crass. Just pointing-out a trade-off. (And I do believe there are more non-JSers out there than we realize, many of them not by choice.) Kicksend doesn't even attempt to let me know I'm not supported, and just presents me with a broken page.

I guess in this day and age pointing that out just makes me sound like I'm boo-hooing.
