Straight from the IRC Chat when arguing with him why he is doing this.
Here are his words:
PS: He changed his nickname to TheDoctor[B][COLOR="DarkOrchid"]<TheDoctor> Emerica, [U]I'm not giving the source out because people want it, simple as that[/U][/COLOR][/B]
<Jason2gs> R0b0t1, donno. Sorry.
[B][COLOR="DeepSkyBlue"]<Emerica> [U]Teaching us a lesson or being a jerk?
<Emerica> I said teaching a lesson[/U][/COLOR][/B]
* Nava2 looks at his "Teach Yourself Java" Text... long road ahead.
[B][COLOR="DarkOrchid"]<TheDoctor> [U]jerk[/U]
<TheDoctor> [U]no doubt about it[/U][/COLOR][/B]
[B][COLOR="DeepSkyBlue"]<Emerica> Hmmm
<Emerica> [U]Why is that?[/U][/COLOR][/B]
<Jason2gs> Lol...
<R0b0t1> Jason2gs: http://www.falconpl.org/
<R0b0t1> OoOOh
<R0b0t1> Pretty.
[B][COLOR="DarkOrchid"]<TheDoctor> [U]why not? I get my kicks that way [/U]:)[/COLOR][/B]
I hope that sums up all questions an answers to Why and What Benland100 thinks and is doing about the situation.
He also states about what he thinks will happen to the situation and why he did it:
<TheDoctor> Emerica, no one will do it, because no one will put forth the effort. I don't give the source because I want you to learnHope that helps :rolleyes:
(Yes I know I am sad too)

Oh no! I wouldn't want people realizing I'm an ass… At any rate, thanks for realizing I didn't even know smart was broken before I logged onto IRC and didn't plan on doing anything about it since I'm no longer active at all, but I'm sure someone will appreciate your efforts. Find me somewhere that says I have to do something about it, and I'll listen to whatever you say. Coming back to people talking about hacking into it to fix it isn't exactly motivation to help :)

So now, what are we supposed to do?

I did not see anything wrong either.
It teaches us a lesson. Do it yourself; put in the long, hard, and grueling hours as he did to create it. Or simply crack it which is what some people are attempting to do but with no luck. Just ask Widget =P

I see that as wrong, as you did not consult him in the first place. Go with the first.

Since you know what you're talking about, I'll let you handle it from now on. Have fun, its people like you that make people like me not want to help anyone.

Worst comes to Worse : Wizzup, or Nava or Narcle or Hypersecret (all godly scripters) will probably team up and create the Fantastic Four and make a godly SMART

Well apparently "he did because of me" thanking him for teaching us a lesson and just sees me as a jerk; thus blaming it all on me that "it is people like you that ruin it for everyone else" something along those lines.

So, basically, we were invited to decompile it and fix it?
EDIT: Provoked, not invited.

I don't see you as a jerk, I think you're full of hot air and I don't appreciate you blowing it at me.

Dude Ben You know we love you man, and I will never stop getting impressed with yout SMART.. its awsome, and we all love it, we all support you and your hard work and 1337ness.
I, talking for almost all, I think, ask you not to let us down please, you are the SMART pro, let us know any way of showing you our gratefull thinkings and appreciation to you.
We know you have no obligation to SRL or to us , but we know you are nice to all us for letting us use SMART, since you could easily have not shared it, but well we are lucky to have SMART which is a great resource for autoing and for all SRL members , because we can be autoing while making scripts or works.
Im trying to encourage you to fix it for us , programmers and all SRL.
Many thanks for everything, thanks for SMART, I think its very Impressive and usefull.
Cheers,
Dracody

Ok I edited it to Almost all so you dont worry Bullzeye ;)
Anyways Im not begging , just trying to encourage him, if he doesnt want to , well… we would have to deal with it :(
I have to confess it would be bad for me since I auto with at least 2 SMART always, most Ive autoed on the same computer was on 5 Scar-SMART's open, on same computer, so honestly It would be bad for me, but Im trying to let him know we support him and appreciate his work , and not to get discouraged by some misunderstanding. :)

The only thing I could have asked is for Ben to have given us like a month notice so we could start learning java.

SMART was written in C++ and calls an instance to the JVM. A month would not have been enough time.
If it means anything to anybody i took a couple hours this morning to try and figure it out, i went throught the worlds folder it self and tried changing the activities part to what it actually is now and fixing a couple other things that changed. unfortunately it didnt do anything :(
So now you know Ben that some of us (clearly not all) but some of us are making somewhat of an effort to fix this so you wont have to.
We all appreciate what you have done in the past and hopefully what you will still do in the future.
Much Respect.
