General OpenTTD • Re: New Website for AXIS

Is there actually anything good to say about my website, which I spent several weeks working on? Into which I put a lot of time and effort?

Or are some people in the OpenTTD community really so arrogant that they don't even acknowledge such an achievement?

You did a very good job at hiding the good parts (original content) behind a design of questionable quality. In all honesty, building a web site using AI assistants is not so big of an achievement; IMO a much more impressive feat is getting hold of a good domain name.

OpenTTD is my hobby, and I wanted to give the AXIS programmer a new platform to present his mod. There is NO tutorial for this mod, NO instructions, NO introduction! In any language! I couldn't find anything like that.

That's a commendable goal, but does it even require building a web site? If you feel like writing a tutorial, the best place for posting it is this very forum; for German language, it's probably tt-ms.de. (I would have recommended the OpenTTD Wiki, but it is prone to sudden rearrangements.) Completing and translating the auto-generated documentation site would have been very helpful too.

Instead of a modicum of recognition, I get nothing but criticism here.

Are you serious?

If your work attracts criticism, it means that somebody cares about it.
