Actually you do not even need to read this, it is once again a very long post ...
I'll be honest, most people don't get any feedback here. I do not want to judge other people for not doing that BTW (there can be several reasons: no time, not interested, no idea what to say, have done this way too often ...). And it doesn't matter to me whether Discord is so popular now or not.
If they post on the forum, why not giving them a reply? Obviously this is not everytime possible.
Maybe I just have empathy for other people. Just because this is the internet doesn't mean you have to be as emotionless as a machine.
Several nice users helped me out here. I was very thankful for that. Those who take should also give something.
And the people who are still at the beginning and sometimes making their first attempts at level design. No matter how much talent someone has, you have to start somewhere. I am not into trolling and if somebody feels offended by my post because it is too harsh or something like that, people can always tell me. Can sometimes happen, especially unintentionally, specially on the internet with mostly text around.
I think we are sensible people and can talk to each other sensibly. We'll probably all have enough trouble in real life.
By the way, I don't understand what replies like yours are supposed to achieve. You've already done that a few times like here. Even with other users.
I was quite willing to give the user a meaningful answer. Level design and art design are real things and we have a lot of people on the forum who know about them (very impressive work sometimes). Just because this is a fan community, I don't know why you shouldn't take that into account. You can mix fun with learning and improving, the one does not necessarily exclude the other.
Of course, you can always remain silent in such cases. It makes things easier for you (in general, for everybody of course). But if you know anything about politics, you should know that silence can be dangerous in the long run. Tears won't help afterwards. But that's just as an aside.
PS: No one is obliged to respond to criticism (or to implement them), if you want to do certain things differently or insist on them, that's perfectly OK. That can be clarified calmly and objectively.
Do you remember that one here?

Nobody can help me...
Because of this post, the only thing I can say to you is...
You need to be patient with other people. The world doesn’t revolve around you.
Probably needs no further comment. Everybody can have a bad day, but this was really far from nice.
And I've already offered you that you don't need to respond to my posts. I don't understand why you always feel addressed.
AFAIK you are NOT a forum moderator. You are free to ignore content you are not interested in. I told you, you can even put me on ignore list, if my posts bother you too much. I could say a lot of other things now, but that would at least end in a warning for me ...
Excuse me mods for this post, no more offtopic here from my side.
