[Please, for the love of god sticky this] Task killers and why you shouldn't use them

[kabuk1]

I have read all the anti-ATK articles, and while they make sense, I still use one simply because of my personal experiences with them. I tried going without one, and my battery drained very rapidly, plus I had lockups & SODs. I like having a 'kill button' too, in case I get a rogue app. I use the ignore feature for frequently used apps that I know are safe so they don't have to relaunch all the time. I have had far more benefits with my ATK than without it.
