I never knew alot of childish developers in CodeProject. that is sad.
Also it doesn't auto update softwares. Oh puhlease.

Wow. The results actually surprised me. I can't imagine working without NuGet. Maybe it depends on the type of application you are writing? I'm using ASP.NET MVC, and NuGet is a godsend for adding packages to my projects.
Anytime I start a new project, I immediately open up the NuGet command line and update Entity Framework, add in Ninject, NUnit and Moq, Elmah, etc., with just a few quick commands. Packages like Ninject.MVC3 and Elmah all come pre-configured, too.
It's so tedious to add all this in without it. Seriously? So many don't want to use it? It saves me a ton of time and effort.
The world is going to laugh at you anyway, might as well crack the 1st joke!
My code has no bugs, it runs exactly as it was written.

When I get to using MVC and other more advanced stuff I'll prob start using it.
The answer I wanted to pick: "I have used it and see the value, but I don't regularly use it"
wasn't available.

I have it but don't use it.

I heard the word 'NuGet' but I never interested to know what is this.

Would've been nice. I guess that's where "No, and no plans to do so" comes into play.

Exactly! I had to look it up to find out what I was answering.

it doesn't seem very impartial.

If it is marketing, it isn't working. "No, and I have no plans to" seems to be winning hands down...

Sounds something tasty. But dont wanna use it...

Yes, it does sound tasty. I have a feeling one will get bloated if they try it.
It was broke, so I fixed it.

No, but Visual Studio makes me Gold NuGets!

To be honest, I'd not heard of it.
But when I looked before answering this question, my response become "No, and I have no plans to".
There are enough bits of software (I'll be polite, this is family page) that check and auto update themselves on my PC already. Do I really want something that automatically updates a library I use, and potentially breaks an application without me knowing and testing it? No. No, thanks!

Bingo. It's commonsense, hell NO

I had the same, almost word for word, response you did.
Maybe library updates never break things anymore (haaaaaaaaaaaahahahahahaha), and I'm just an old fart, but yikes, the very thought that my PC could be doing this would keep me awake at night.
Look at me still talking when there's science to do
When I look out there it makes me glad I'm not you

It doesn't auto check and update without asking you, it's a packet manager for .NET.
It automates the process of managing 3rd party dependencies. You click the button, type whatever you want to add - it adds. You click the button to update, it updates. You click the button to remove dependency, it cleans up everything for you.
I've switched quite a few projects of mine from manual externals management to NuGet and haven't seen any downside yet.

Quote: No, I don't use Visual Studio
If some one says 'I don't use VS', then what is the intent of saying 'NO' as he/she never knows how much easy or tough it is to do this task.
For clarity the option should be simple:
Quote: I don't use Visual Studio
Or did I got the english wrong !!
[Edit : Changed from code block to Quote block]

Technically, you would be right, I think.
But, English is a funny language like that. If you but the two phrases together:
"Do you use NuGet?"
"I don't use Visual Studio"
They appear as disconnected statements.
"Do you use NuGet?"
"No, I don't use Visual Studio"
Makes it a lot clearer that the second is a response to the question.
