@discord I love Discord. I've been using it since it debuted for over +10 years now, and nitro for almost as long.

Sucks to say I've never been more tempted to withdraw my support than right now.

@thelinkr @horngal I've used some alternatives to discord, but I either found them deficient in some way or about the same quality, but simply did not possess even a fraction of the install base. Which means it would be impractical for project teams. Still curious though, what do you like to use?

[Protagonist @Th3_Protagonist]

@DiGi_Valentine Hey DiGi, big fan. I was wondering how can I contact you for business inquires?

[Protagonist @Th3_Protagonist]

@TatiMore_ Hey I was interested in your demo reel commission. Tried to dm you but it wasn't open for me, idk. Maybe we can talk through email or discord if you have those.

[Protagonist @Th3_Protagonist]

@keikonimidnight What types would they have?

[Protagonist @Th3_Protagonist]

@VoicesByZane Like a lot of folks are saying, there are just people in life that will not watch anything animated. Sadly whether it's family members, friends, or partners, I've experienced people who refuse to watch anything drawn. "Only real people or I'm not watching!" What a snore, I know.

[Protagonist @Th3_Protagonist]

@cfm_zero_en Hey Zero, sorry the humor in the video didn't quite land. It's been a running joke for long time community members but I can understand how it comes off as crude & harsh to newcomers. If you like, I'd be happy to personally walk you through the process till you're up & running.

[Protagonist @Th3_Protagonist]

@rishissb @VGBC_GimR LOL

[Protagonist @Th3_Protagonist]

Also the niche perception of melee's crowd perplexes me. Grass roots tournaments with big home grown prize pools, people playing all over the world every second of the day on slippi, & multipler modders making a living off of it. The game's overwhelming success speaks for itself.

[Protagonist @Th3_Protagonist]

@TierZoo Not gonna lie man, I can't help but feel this is an L take.
There's a reason why so many people gravitate to games with movement. Melee is a proven underdog success story despite getting no official support. Therefore, developers are not crazy to adopt a clearly winning formula.

[Protagonist @Th3_Protagonist]

@DerekMK Was referring to the speedrunner that is continuing to play the game despite their determents. Not allowing outside influence to ruin the idea of running a game they like.

[Protagonist @Th3_Protagonist]

@Sozin__ There has to be some sort of secret to hitting those up b wall jumps because whenever I tried to practice it, I get it like 1/100 times. One of the main reasons I play Doc, I don't have to do it. It is odd that doc's up b cancel is also a 1 frame input but it's way easier for me.

@Juanzu_77 @TheBlueBlurYT @AlexWilsonArt @ShadrakGF Are you taking commission work at this time?
