Why does everyone screw their user base???

I have been loyal to Opera since before it was free. Before there were mouse gestures. I've run most of the betas, and 10 alpha. I even loaded and used the Swedish Chef version. That was funny as hell. What happened to you guys????

Why are they screwing us in the ass so hard!?!?!?! 10.5 came out, and auto completion was now broken, so I had to go around and prevent everything from auto-updating. I missed the server I use to send out my scout newsletter and it got upgraded. So, Naturally, I had to revert the installation.
Except it deleted every setting.
Every bookmark....Gone
Speed Dial........Gone
All prior emails..Gone

THE PRIVATE EMAIL SERVER COMCAST MAKES YOU USE SO YOU DON'T GET REGISTERED AS A SPAMMER, THAT I DON'T REMEMBER THE PASSWORD TO....

GONE MOTHER FUCKERS!!!! COMPLETELY GONE!!!!!

So Fuck you Opera...Just Fuck you. We told you that you broke auto completion when it was still in beta. Just fucking fix it already.

It's not like I can boycott them either. I'm totally fucking stuck. The combination of shortcut commands and mouse gestures makes the uptake of any other browser a fundamental change in how I interact with the internet. Yes, the 9.2 shortcut set. FOR THE LOVE OF EVERYTHING HOLY STOP CHANGING ALL YOUR SHORTCUTS!!!!!!!!!

You're turning into Microsoft. Please just stop.
