There are better ways to stay on GNOME 2, if you liked it: 1) Use a long term supported distro (Debian, RHEL, CentOS), which will keep GNOME 2 for the next years at least 2) Use, and help develop, MATE 3) Use, and help improve, some other DE, with different design goals (such as Xfce, LXDE, KDE) Sorry, but please recognize that shouting in this way is not productive for the hundreds of developers who everyday work in GNOME. Also, please remember you're not our customer in any way, unless you have a support contract from one of the GNOME AB members (In which case you probably already get GNOME 2).
