I continually get concerns via PM. So just going to say this; I am incredibly stressed and rather tired mentally. I'm doing my best.
I've made mistakes and I've misjudged a few things about this upgrade. My biggest mistake was doing it. My biggest misjudgement was that the community would have the patience for me to fight through the work. I knew that this was going to be a huge undertaking and that it would take me months but I was expecting the negativity I'm getting from a fair portion of the community. I did what I felt I had to do, which is always how I've run HF.
I'm being sent PMs and I also read posts with criticism about how I have approached this work. I don't need anyone's permission to make changes to my website. I also don't need to follow any standards created by others for their websites. HF is MY WORK for the past decade and if you think telling me how I'm doing it wrong does anything but cause me problems and grief then you're just an asshole with lips.
This sucks. I know it does. For everyone. But guess what, I'm the only guy that can fix it. So if you really want the site to be improved and fixed then you need to give me a break and stop giving me a hard time.
I'm not going to hire anyone. No one but me gets access to HF. If you don't like what I'm doing then it's just fine if you logout and don't return.
The only way we get through this is if I'm mentally strong enough to work and I make decisions with a clear mind. I feel like some of you are trying to break me. I took 4 days off to clear my head but I wasn't back 15 minutes and I felt like I didn't even take a bathroom break.
We are in the middle of a huge upgrade. There is no going back. This needed to get done. I chose the time and method of this upgrade and criticizing me for it is pointless. You don't like what I did or how I'm doing it then you can just fuck off.
Oh, and please stop sending me encouraging PMs. They are just as distracting to my job as the criticisms. I need to get work done. I'll be fine if I can just fix HF.
Lastly, I'm trying my best to temper my anger and moodiness over the situation. But fair-warning, don't push my buttons because I am certainly not in the mood for it.
LET ME WORK, please.
Thank you,
Omni
