    This is a signature, it's not exactly targeted at you, it will be posted after every of his message.
    Nobody thinks you're bad.

    Any level only concerns you as games are never designed for disabled. Since they're many minorities, it's a headhache, a complex and extremely challenging feat to satisfy 100% of the playerbase.
    But tools to ease the disability do exist and are the best solutions for both the players and development teams.

    Thats not what I was doing. I was responding to the comments beneath yours but se they are posted here as well, where it says some players are mind boggingly bad at the game.

    I mean, it is the truth.

    Either way, most people understand when others have actual limitations to what they can do vs. people who are just lazy and don't care. Most people have problems with the latter more than the former.

    And once again - if the comments weren't directed specifically at you, maybe don't take them as a personal attack on you or your disability. And as stated by CKNovel, it's a signature, not other commentary in this thread. It'll appear in every post I personally make somewhere, that's all. Same as people having picture banners or the like.

    I understand and apologies for the confusion. But if someone did respond that players are just bad, to a post like this thag wouldn't be assumption. Like I said I have learned they arent replies and are a signature. Thanks

    Although macros are not normally recommended for fighting, when you have a disability they may be helpful and if they avoid pain and other symptoms then it's a fair reason.

    An example of some negative feedback i have received by players is using a macro to say "hello, im new" at the start of a duty and told im not authentic for doing so regardless of using them because they help with my disabilities, so please understand my hesitancy in posting this.
    I type the exact same word at the start of every dungeon. Nobody even comments on it. On some data centers I use the auto-translate { Hello! } because multiple languages are spoken. Perhaps you could use that because multiple languages are spoken on your world.

    It's also not necessary to say you are new because this becomes clear from the bonus, cut scene watching and the sprout icon if you still have it, but you could use the auto-translate phrase { This is my first time here. }.

    To auto-translate, begin typing the phrase then press tab. You can put these into macros. Nobody should attack you for it because for all they know you don't speak the same language.

    The player who didn't feel it was authentic was expressing their opinion, but that opinion isn't very reasonable given the context of you having a disability.

    If there are any other things you find difficult you could ask us about those in case we have some ideas.

    Thank you for that. Theyre entitled to the opinion of course and I tried to explain that I use it because of disability, but they literally said they don't care if im disabled its still not authentic. So yes it wasn't fun. Thanks for the help

    I don't think you need to bring up that you're disabled after posting a macro. If someone reacts badly to the macro like that, then they've got issues of their own. I can honestly say I've never, ever seen anyone react like that to a "hello, I'm new", macro or otherwise. Not to say it couldn't happen, just that I've never personally seen it. And I've seen a lot of things. Just shrug and move on with your day. They aren't worth your time getting upset over. Even so, I sympathize with your limitations. I've got some of my own, though they usually (but not always) don't interfere with how I play.

    Hi sorry, I hadn't brought it up in that way. I clicked the macro that says exactly "Hey, im new, please bear with me and let me know mechs". They then said to not use macros as it isnt authentic. I explained that I used them for this reason, because I think whilst yes everyone is allowed opinion, often times people don't see things from others perspective. That's it really, im not ashamed of my disability and if it helps me explain why I do something then I will definitely tell someone, as it gives everyone level footing.

    Don't worry about having difficulty with the Kugane Tower puzzle, a lot of people have difficulty with it. My partner pretty much cheated his way up using the wedding ring teleport lol. What others posted here are good suggestions on how to get around it.
    On your macro setup, I think you just had a really bad person interact with you. I'd rather someone make a macro so they can interact instead of being completely silent.
