Could people please stop saying "bling". That word is starting to make me 
physically ill. It doesn't actually mean anything

The desktop effects are actually turned off by default in kde4. If you dislike 
the fact that they are even available, please start using twm

enlightenment has even more effects, and as far as I know, no one is 
complaining to them. And when compiz first appeared on the scene, people were 
ecstatic.

Plus, unless I'm much mistaken, people are now complaining that there is too 
much in KDE4, instead of not enough.

The slider isn't there, but just about every effect is configurable in the 
control centre
