I assumed you wanted to share your calculator with people, so I took my time to rewrite it for the web, and explained you could update it by A) extending the version I made, or B) changing your "v2" to return instead of log.

Instead, you opted for C) no one can conveniently see/use your calculator on the wiki. To me, it looked like, instead of caring about damage calculation and the wiki, you cared more about being offended that I tried to let others see the calculator you built ... but you have your memory and I have mine /shrug
I know a web app doesn't work that way. I didn't build the first version as a web app. That is what you are missing. I never said that the calculator was a finished product ready to be deployed. In the initial post, I even stated a few things were missing, and bugs were present. Perhaps you assumed it was a web app since it was built in javascript. I only used javascript because it was a language that doesn't need to be compiled, and can be run on free websites like playcode.io.

I posted a work in progress version that wasn't finished to get feedback from the community. Thats it. I have no idea where you got this idea that I didn't want to share the calculator. Why would I post the source code for the calculator if I didn't want people to see it or use it?

I didn't want people to use a broken version of my calculator. The wiki version was broken.

You took it upon yourself to upload the calculator code. That means you willingly took responsibility for managing the calculator code, since I can't edit it myself. Only wiki admins can. I didn't ask you to do that.

The issue was you took on the responsibility, without having the time or the will to see it finished. I have no issue with you not having the time to get the calculator working. We are all adults. My issue is you took the responsibilty on your own, and blamed me for your lack of time and commitment to get the calculator working properly.
