You know I was actually halfway through making the
video that people wanted to see here when I saw a bunch of big text again. This conversation has basically lost any sense of being constructive. As a community, we've done a really, really awful job of explaining what we want and it's doing more harm than good. Like, David is the only one here who is trying to get something out of this anymore and we aren't helping.
That said, MF decided to push this into public beta when this exact complaint was on the table and they didn't understand what it was. I suppose this is what they should have expected. In spite of that, if I was MF I wouldn't want to listen to us because even though we're actually right about this being an issue, we're doing such a bad job of explaining it, despite the fact that this is how MF-me had decided I wanted to receive feedback. We aren't doing a good job of talking and they aren't doing a good job of listening. No wonder we can't communicate!
It's really frustrating that I was making a video that would try and be constructive and show exactly what the animation delay is so they know what to fix, but honestly I'm feeling really self-conscious about posting it. I feel like I can accurately describe what's happening, but I'm going to get corrected and edge-cased by a bunch of people on here who want slightly different things than me or think that they can say it in a slightly different way that picks up on some nuance that I missed; and since their text is larger than my video thumbnail, what I'm putting work into is going to be drowned out by people yelling at the top of their lungs. That's something children do, and people don't listen to children when they do that.
Realistically, I'll wake up tomorrow morning and finish the editing/voice over I was going to make because I've already captured everything I want to show and I don't want to say I wasted my time, but right now I'm going to bed because I'm frustrated enough that my voice over might come across as flippant instead of constructive, which is the opposite of what I want to happen.
If it was up to me, this thread would be locked and this thing would still be in closed beta. Also, I would be asleep. Hey, I can actually do something about that last one!
