PLEASE BE RESPECTFUL IF YOU ARE GONNA COMMENT ON THIS THREAD
I'm quite heartbroken that working on Wii stuff for over 10 year has equated to so much harassment, disrespect, and disdain in the community for me, regardless of the bad things I've done (those shall not be repeated on this thread). It's sad because I often think of how things ended up. While I'm not working on Wii stuff as much as I've left RiiConnect24, I've had to quit using Twitter and leave almost every Wii related Discord because people get away with shit talking about me. Half of the drama that was attached to me was either exaggerated or false entirely, yet in the Wii community you are hit hard with any infraction you make. If you are considering making a Wii related Discord server, do not, it will cause you pain. You will have to deal with stupid 13 year old teenagers and other people that cant behave well
Yet, part of me still wants to help people. It's hard when I get blocked from WiiLink's GitHub because part of their team holds grudges on me and I have to relay things to people to get them fixed and they barely respond. No Wii community is perfect, in fact Nintendo communities in general are gonna require you to work with eccentric people who will be hard to deal with myself included. But when I think of my time in the community, the drama overweighs any of the good things I did in the community, which has caused me to have low self esteem. I know I've not been the best person because of my impulses and other things, and I have done things that are very much bad, but people made mountains out of molehills. All I have to look back on is bad. Even when I'm barely doing anything, I feel like I'm still burning bridges
I've poured my soul into working on good things for the Wii, but people complain about anything. This drama is over, but I copy a response header to fix an error with the Nintendo Channel when WiiLink fixes the response, I got hit with the accusation I stole weeks of effort on their code causing much drama. I eventually use that code because they say it's OK to use, then they create drama saying I lied about receiving permission even though the code was licensed to be used. I try to work on a poorly made Wii Shop revival, and they have an accusation which is baseless that I doxxed people with it, causing many dumb teenagers to go wild because they pinged 20k people about the issue and the claim was so widespread that people didn't know what was the truth at all
While I've made some good friends in the Wii community, I've met some of the rudest and worst people I've met in my life through the Wii community. It's painful. If you want to create a community for Nintendo stuff, be prepared to deal with some of the weirdest and meanest people you will ever met. If you think I'm making this thread because I'm mad, well, I am, but I keep thinking about this and I have trouble letting go all of this
