@lorentz yeah... when I first started helping them I tried to introduce them to proper source control, but 3 weeks later they went back to the bullshit cause it was 'too hard' and 'our method works for us'
ugh thinking back on it now makes me wonder why I even bothered working on this with them at all, even just as a side project. -
@MammaNeedHummus yeah... i think i'm gonna enjoy my weekend, then Monday after my 8 hours at my day job I'll send a final discord message to them telling them good luck and that I'm out
Thinking back on everything cause of this post really makes me question why i bothered working with them in the first place -
@jester5537 To quote myself literally from a project I eventually bailed on:
> well, your method doesn't work for me
Agreed to help out these 2 guys on a minecraft mod pack idea they had... stipulated this is a side project for me and I'm not going to dedicate too much time to it. They were fine with that
Fast forward a few months main 'idea guy' loses his job so spends more time on the pack and starts hounding me for progress and updates and throwing more and more things for me to do. He's also getting progressively angrier at my lack of substantial progress
Like fuck dude i told you this is s fucking side project to me. I'll work on it when I fucking want to. Hell I'm one more shouting match away from telling him to fuck off and find some other dumbass to be the only programmer in this group and get ignored when it comes to fucking anything else
Their idea of 'source control' is a fucking multi Mc instance that gets shared by the main guy every time HE changes anything. Any scripts or configuration edits I do I need to walk him through so he can update that instance
No clue why I put up with it so long. Maybe because other guy was a cool friend back in college. But at this point they both can fuck off
