People like @Sakkidotsu are never cease to amaze me. A while back I said a foreign Redditor who was completely dependent on his Japanese wife was acting like a manchild. This guy took it personally and has been throwing digs ever since. He can’t take any criticism of anything he does. He’s desperate to live in Japan while being dependent on a form of ADHD medication that is illegal there, and he presents himself as a karate practitioner. You’d think someone who has lived here for 20 years and trained martial arts (including karate) the entire time would be someone he’d at least listen to. Instead it’s just insults. He claims Kyokushin, then gets upset when basic technique is pointed out. I've been doing Kyokushin based styles for most of the time I've been in Japan. His knuckles are scratched up from doing "Bruce Lee punches" that aren't part of Kyokushin. He's doing them because he thinks it's what Miyamoto Musashi would have done. 🤣 I'm pretty sure Musashi didn't say anything about doing a ton of things wrong instead of doing one thing right. There’s a Japanese concept for this exact attitude: 守破離 (shuhari). You follow traditional wisdom first, then work out its flaws, then depart from traditional wisdom. Some people skip the whole process, decide they’re already right, and get defensive when it’s pointed out. Article on it in the next post.

@BlizzardCS @Warcraft @RaiderIO_WoW I'm at a loss for words... This is absolutely disgusting, horrific abomination of customer support services, this is how you treat your competitive playerbase? What have I ever done to deserve being treated this way?

My lungs can’t breathe underwater Gill issue

Mental is struggling rn, stress is at an all time high, EUI feature requests are pouring in at an unfathomable rate (avg 1000+ per month), then tonight I find out someone yelled at an EUI support team member cuz they felt their feature request wasn’t being prioritized enough. I REALLY need people to get some perspective here or I will lose it lol. Bringing any kind of entitlement attitude to a FREE WoW addon is absolute insanity. EllesmereUI has no paywalls, no sponsors, no website ads, no partnerships, and no funding beyond one time donations. CurseForge payouts barely reach $200 a month LOL. I’ve poured every waking moment of mine into this project for 9 months, to the point where I barely have time to stream anymore, which is literally supposed to be my job. Many support team members have taken days off of work just to help with support during intense times. So when someone comes in feeling entitled to a feature they want (usually something super niche that they try to say everyone needs) and gets pissed at a support team member over it, it’s incredibly fucked. EUI will always remain completely free and unpaywalled, but in return I need patience and understanding for both myself and my support staff. With thousands of requests and reports coming in every month, some things are inevitably going to get missed, and many feature requests won’t be implemented. That’s just the reality of maintaining a project of this size with the time and resources available. Finally, just remember that every single person helping with support is a volunteer giving up their own free time to help this community. They don’t get paid, they don’t owe anyone anything, and they absolutely do not deserve to be yelled at because someone’s feature request hasn’t been addressed. It’s honestly ridiculous that this even needs to be said. TLDR: Don’t ever yell at EUI staff members, and don’t act entitled over a FREE WoW addon. Just basic human decency please, be kind
