A lot of times on Blender communities, I’ll get DMs from people wanting support for their issue. I’m not sure why me specifically (I’m a Minecraft artist), but it happens, and usually goes something like this:
Person 1: Bro please help me with this issueSo I’ll say it here: please don’t DM me for support, I’m probably going to ignore it. If it’s a matter that absolutely needs my attention, and you don’t want to tag me publicly on a server (which I would prefer), your best route is to email me (also on the home page of my website). Unlike DMs on platforms like Discord, emails are easier for me to archive and keep a paper trail of what comes through. Plus, I check my emails everyday.
Of source, some might ask “if you don’t like DMs so much, why have them enabled?”. I actually used to keep them closed, but that became very annoying in the long run. Sadly, platforms like Discord are all or nothing when it comes to DMs on a per-server basis, so keeping DMs closed is just impractical for me.
Tldr: please don’t DM me if you need Blender support, either tag me publicly on a server or email me privately if absolutely necessary.
