I mean, there's that discussion and then you posting this after it: It's not unreasonable to think that you're speaking about them too and especially after seeing the posts that you made after when responding to me. Learning how a forum works is a neat idea. Maybe you should engage in that activity? Pro tip: If a post quotes nobody, and specifically mentions "the thread" or "the OP" or "this entire conversation", maybe they aren't speaking directly to you? Just maybe? Kinda? 1 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, learning how the forum works is a neat idea. Pro tip: if you reply to "the thread" (and mention "4 pages" of it), you really should expect a response from any poster in that thread, instead of just OP. And if the response was not from the person you wanted to argue with, or not about stuff you wanted to argue about, then, well, maybe you should not have engaged back. And asking "how is this happening" when it was clearly a result of your own actions just shows you simply weren't paying attention. Just to be clear, i generally agree with you that this whole thread is mostly about a complete nonissue, and is based on misinformations. Still, there's no reason to add to the misinformations, and getting all defensive when you're being called on it hardly helps your cause.

But I don't expect that any poster to pretend that I was only ever talking to them alone. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, while (again) i do think that the issue brought up in this thread is minor at best, mythical's comments about how dx11 may still not be stable enough for the switch are valid (even if i think the scale of the problems got overestimated). And they've had a point when they commented that you marginalizing it on the basis of being able to choose (when the whole thread is about Anet's announcement of that choice going away soon) does show your lack of understanding of what this discussion is even about.

Forum Moderator.3419 Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 Hi everyone, I'm locking this thread as it has devolved into non-productive argument and personal attacks. Regards. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
