Alright @term25, you're just picking fights now. CodeIgniter and Laravel both have their merits, their own perspectives on how things should be done, and their own communities working to make the frameworks better. If you want to use Laravel instead, by all means, please do. If you want to use CodeIgniter for a project, you're welcome to it. You're welcome to be part of things on this forum, too, but please be civil.
This thread simply isn't constructive. You're just ranting, and it's not doing anything to make either framework better. I've had multiple requests to close this thread to put an end to it, and I'm happy to oblige.
