Addressing a Community Issue
Yesterday, this post was created, directing to a bug report that hadn't been addressed in several months, when people were still experiencing the issue:
- Thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/EdenEmulator/comments/1tm0kik/bringing_your_attention_to_a_serious_bug_that_has/
- Issue: https://github.com/eden-emulator/Issue-Reports/issues/379
- Recent Fix: https://git.eden-emu.dev/eden-emu/eden/pulls/4011
Now, admittedly, how the team handled the following uproar wasn't the best. However, that reaction was due to harassment from Reddit users who decided it was in their best interests to DM our team and spam the issue. It was so bad, it resulted in team members deleting their Reddit account in response.
We won't be tolerating this in the future. If we still had full record of who committed the harassment, we'd be perma-banning them from this subreddit and reporting them to Reddit admins. Unfortunately, the account deletion was done in the heat of the moment, so we don't have complete information.
That being said, I will be 3-day temp-banning names that the team recognizes as having been problematic during this period.
Remember that our team is working on this project for free, using their own free time, out of a passion to see it through. We don't owe you anything, but we are trying to make it the best emulator we can. Many other emulation projects over the past 30 or so years have shut down due to similar treatment from the community, and we have the additional pressure of Nintendo breathing down our necks. Let's not add Eden to that list.
