I agree as I also prefer to set up my system myself without any extraneous junk.

That said, you are still missing the point of the community list. The main reason for contributing to the list is not for yourself but for others. Hence the reason that I have contributed to the list even though I do not use it to autotune myself.

If you need a selfish reason to contribute then yes the list does still act as a backup because you can always consult it manually (through the link in post #1) to find your links and configurations. You can also consult it manually to find new configurations to add manually to your setup. Which I suspect many people do as several posters have asked the best way to check for updates to the list.

Even if you deem autotuning to be useless, the list itself still has utility. Think of it as a storage bin that you can refer to whenever you are looking for new items to add to your own setup.

In the past (at least) two months only THREE people have contributed anything to the list. Luna, myself, and one other person who contributed ONCE (which I am not complaining about because at least he contributed).

The fact of the matter is that people have things that they could contribute but they don't, likely due to ignorance, laziness, or greed.

I guess you're entitled to your opinion, but the way I see it is I don't feel like spending a bunch of time contributing to something I largely view as unnecessary beyond the purpose of an auto-tune for someone new. Right now there is sufficient material to give someone a comprehensive overview of the items PSTV can manage and play. If you view that as ignorance, laziness and greed so be it. I can only speak for myself and I can't really speculate as to why the entire community has by enlarge rejected the community list concept.
