Somebody with wiki permissions...

DSM hopefully in the process of learning a valuable social skill: you can be correct, and still lose and end up banned from the wiki

Not sure what you mean. We got Cecily suspended for trolling the wiki, so he can't keep doing it. That's a win. Glad to see trolls finally being punished.

P.S. I want an accurate wiki, but I care so very little about damage calculation that I do not want to wade into what is correct.

Please, after the timeout, fix everything to be accurate (damage calculation is your jam, not mine) ... but respect the desire of others to keep things clean and readable.

P.P.S. I believe Cecily is a she.

... there is absolutely zero doubt, in my mind or in any regular forum reader's mind, that you are on the spectrum. ZERO doubt.

It's not a flame, and not an insult (I'd be insulting myself) ... but it's a fact that resources are available for people like us. If you struggle in real life with social awareness as much as you do in the forum, you really might want to consider taking a test, so you can benefit from those resources.

This isn't a flame, just a provable observation. I can bring threads and posts if you want to self reflect.

This is just your bias speaking. There is so much evidence on the forum of you misreading my posts, and the thread in general. This causes you to make things up out of thin air.

The issue is you can't read well, and make a lot of assumptions that are untrue. Your pride prevents you from admitting you are wrong when these assumptions are proven incorrect. You just double down.

I would advise fixing yourself before trying to diganose others.

Can we fix it now, so there isn't a week of an incorrect formula?

You'd be able to "fix" it now yourself, had your abrasiveness and inability to compromise or reason with people not resulted in a wiki ban. But then, it's always everyone else's fault, right? If they'd just stand aside and make way for your flawless logic?

Aspergerppendix: These are purely rhetorical questions and I am not at all interested in your answers.

I did compromise. I put examples in an expandable div, and simplified the formula steps, and put the weighted 20 steps in a expandable div too.

That is what the community asked for.

Bcbrown did not compromise. They reformatted the calculation incorrectly into pseudocode, which nobody asked for. The bare minimum is doing it correctly.

Cecily did not compromise. They just reverted everything I did repeatedly.

The evidence is so painfully clear of what happened. The post history and revision history don't lie.

I am getting punished due to subjective bias, not objective fact. But it's fine, as Cecily can't ruin the page at least.

Youu wrote and shared a first version, that logged all output in (a lot of) functions. A web app can't work that way: it needs a function that returns everything it needs to show (so it can show it).

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

This post is a good example of what I am talking about, Loramin.

You made multiple assumptions without evidence:

1. You assumed I built the DPS calculator as a web app. I didn't say that anywhere in the thread. I only used Javaacript because it doesn't need to be compiled, and can be run for free in a browser.

2. I said I didn't have time to modify the code to work for the wiki in our PM's. I don't know where you got the idea that I didn't want my calculator on the wiki. I just didn't want a broken calculator on the wiki.

I probably won't be making significant changes to it anymore. I don't really have time in the next few months at least, and I think it accomplishes everything I set out to do. I was thinking about adding hate calculations, but I'd need to research the current state of P99's changes to how proc hate works in 2025. My brain probably still has some outdated info, and I don't have time to do the research.

So I'd say there are three options:
1. Get 2.0 working and just leave it, except for bug fixes. I can do some testing for you.
2. Just remove the calculator, and we can just link to the form post.
3. Temporarily make me an admin so I can do the coding myself.

It just depends on your time as to which one you want to do. Thanks for taking the time either way, I wasn't expecting you to put in the work to put it on the wiki. That was a pleasant suprise!

To paraphrase your response to my message, you said you would see if you had time to do option 1, otherwise we'd do option 2. I did option 2 after a month of no changes on your end.

3. Why would you think I didn't want other people to see my calculator, when I made a thread sharing the source code, with instructions on how to run it?

I am not trying to be mean. It just honestly confuses me how you make all of the assumptions.
