So, it's only alright when the dev does it? Also, I was being completely serious, there's basic and objective levels of quality control that are being ignored as admitted by the dev himself. You're arguing against the dev to defend the dev.See that. That right there is exactly what we're talking about. If you can't communicate your point in a mature and respectful manner then you should just keep it to yourself.
Professional behavior is defined as "Conducting oneself in a courteous and respectful manner when engaging with others". There's no actual requirement to be in a professional environment, and you're directly arguing that basic manners are not an expectation when talking to people.Btw there's no expectation of professionalism from someone who's engaging in an explicitly non professional project.
There's the predictable "You're being rude so that somehow invalidates other people being rude too" strawman response, but that's an empty argument and is also predicated on ignoring that the dev's behavior happened before I even posted in this thread so they set the precedent before me. I'm also not being very rude, I'm being blunt to a fault but I'm not insulting anyone and my responses aren't disproportionate.
But when people offer helpful suggestions and feedback the dev accuses them of causing trouble and tells them to leave the thread. So why would I do that if it clearly upsets them?You forget one important thing. Most of the dev's on this forum are not doing this as a day job. It's a hobby they do for fun which you and everybody else want to benefit from. But instead of handing a helping hand or positive feedback / criticism you decide to demorilize these people who dedicate their free time for our benifit.
You Sir are the definition of an entitled person. search on it on youtube. There are lots of funny movies about entitled people.
Also, I really cannot stress this enough, it's quite literally entire minutes to do the full compression, and the link thing is his responsibility as thread owner and is directly ignoring his position by not doing it and also only takes minutes. Nobody's being unreasonable, the dev's just knowingly being obtuse about it because they don't feel like doing it.
