It _is_ the holidays and the right course of action really is to simply take a breath and chill out. I'd agree with you. This post isn't really for the purpose of shaming though. It's to bring up the issue of such sites doing this kind of thing. This topic could have been easily brought up after the holidays... but why wait? It's a topic to be discussed. |

The way you're going about this entire conversation is simply too much. It sounds like you've reached out to multiple personal emails, created multiple issues, responded to those issues asking for updates, and brought the issue to social media in less than a day. During the holidays. That's overwhelming and doesn't put the devs on your side.
As others have mentioned, even if you're right, you really need to give the devs some time to think through the alternatives, consider your argument, come up with a solution, and implement it. This takes some time.
Removing information from a database may not seem hard to you, but you don't maintain the service. Sending a pull request is fine, but maintainers don't blindly merge anything. They have to review it, make sure it's the policy, quality of code, etc. that they want in the product, merge it, and deploy to prod after possibly testing everything.
Give it time (not measured in hours) and work with the developers.
Edit: This is exactly why maintainers don't blindly accept pull requests: https://github.com/gitpay/website/pull/4#pullrequestreview-1...
