The Main point is that Fencer does not want it, so it will not happen as he says.
It was mentioned back then that he can not please everyone, BUT if auto-passing was an option in each game he would.
By not having auto-pass as an option he is only keeping a few people happy, BUT it is his site and that his choice.

As Fencer also said the it can be talked about elsewhere, but not here. So lets go and have a Debate :o)
