No. Let me show you what I expect from individuals here.
You said:
Here’s my simple response: Then don’t use the advanced stuff, just like I said before.
The basic concepts of building a custom are quite easy. There is indeed a quickstart guide located RIGHT at the top of the Q store: How Does The Custom Process Work? - Subliminal Club Support Hub
There’s also an entire section on how to do the basic stuff: Quintessence Customs Archives - Subliminal Club Support Hub
As for which modules you should use, that’s what the customer forum is for. I cannot tell you, because I have not run every module. That’s why there’s a wealth of knowledge here for people to utilize. The majority of people here have much more experience with how a module actually plays out when being used than I do. I can tell you what the script says. THEY can tell you what their results are.
That is simply the way it works, by necessity. There is no “guide” we can write to the advanced stuff. You will have to get there exactly the same way the advanced users did. Trial and error, discussion, deep thought.
If I could make the entire process easy, I would. It is not difficult because of a failing on our part – it is difficult because these are often difficult concepts to grasp.
Now, there’s another popular subliminal producer in which you cannot stack and you can only run one title at a time, and this situation right here is exactly why he went that route. It makes it easy. And his approach is perfectly valid and makes sense business wise. Now, his single title prices are now running roughly $400. Which, for that business model, makes sense.
The thing is, we decided to differentiate from their offerings and make something different. Thus, we charge $34.99 for majors, which you can mix and match and from those experiences you can make your own custom.
The only reason the “ruleset” seems so complicated to you is because you want to jump ahead and start making advanced stuff before doing the groundwork.
And when it comes to any enmity between me and you, it is because you have tendency to state your personal misgivings as business fact, which annoys the life out of me. You just tried to tell me on the other thread that we shouldn’t post countdowns for module packs because in your eyes, there aren’t enough customers to justify that.
Do you really think we would’ve done that, if we didn’t already know the amount of people who would be hyped at a module drop – especially THIS one, since it’s coming DIRECTLY from STKS feedback. So, if you would like for me to stop snapping at you, I suggest that when you speak your feedback, you keep it in the realm of personal feedback. The moment I begin to sense any kind of arrogant forcefulness, your feedback immediately goes out of the window.
@Jouissance singlehandedly influenced my mindset on some topics because he respectfully approached me in private with his feedback – and mind you, he didn’t go “easy.” However, he made it clear that he’s basing his feedback off personal experience and observation, as someone who has run A LOT of stuff, so I very much considered it.
