Those things were most helpful to me and i think will get you a lot of traffic from people looking to boost their performance (being poe1 or 2) I'm open to the feedback (thanks) - but the goal, at least initially, is to provide a set of shall we say... safe and uncontroversial advice for people, which can be given freely without knowing anything about the reader, their setup, and their technical proficiency. I'm not sure it makes sense to encourage the average, not especially tech savvy person to venture off the beaten path into modifying CPU core affinities - or notably dialling up their system's power usage (read: heat output) when it could be some OEM build with two intake fans behind a sheet of glass at the front of the case which is on the verge of overheating at standard settings. I could definitely see a new section with some disclaimers which is designed to cater to people who are more confident with advanced system modification, but for now it's intended more to help people troubleshoot problems than to eek out every last bit of performance.

There's definitely growing usage of LLMs, for sure - and it'll be interesting to see where that goes. Do you really think the average person has even heard of shell scripts, though? The website is intended to cater to a wide audience. :) ah, well like i said if you figure the demand is there. i was just making my suggestion based on the, rather frequent, posts i see on this very forum. I also think you under estimate a poe player, i don't think a person needing help with connecting their monitor to the actual gpu port will be playing poe :P ... or maybe i'm the one over estimating them. anyhow, best of luck on the project!

Thanks. :) Having spent thousands of euros on Path of Exile over the years, I will not be further supporting it financially until and unless GGG resumes offering Technical Support.	Posted by Sarno#0493 on Sep 5, 2025, 9:42:12 PM Quote this Post

You are overestimating a lot of players. I have lost count of the number of <facepalms> I have done on reading some of the issues that PoE players have. Including those who have not connected their monitor to the GPU port....... 😹😹😹😹😹 I do not and will not use TFT.

Bit of a cool update! Searching Google for path of exile technical support is returning the website towards the end of page 1 of search results; That's while not signed into Google - but it may vary from one region to another. It's a pleasant surprise - as, initially, Googlebot had been crawling but declining to index the website (i.e. Google knew about the site, but wouldn't list it). Google Search Console just threw a generic message instead of citing a specific reason, so I hadn't gotten around to trying to fix it.

Really neat site Sarno, thanks for your efforts! Just a lowly standard player. May RNGesus be with you. Stop trying to make people play the game like you do. If they don't enjoy it how about just leave it at that?	Posted by Shovelcut#3450 on Oct 3, 2025, 2:51:24 PM Quote this Post

Nice looking site and huge effort to help people with tech stuff. I'm sure people will find use for it, even if it's just another source for LLMs to gobble up... at least it helps them get more accurate answers I guess ;) But what did u write in ur OP that angered the GGG overlords to edit stuff out? :) PoE2 0.4 Character: https://poe.ninja/poe2/profile/Sadaukar-2191/character/Sadaukar_Vaal https://poe.ninja/poe2/profile/Sadaukaria-3556/character/IcySadaukar_Vaal OS: CachyOS (Arch Linux btw. <3)	Posted by Sadaukar#2191 on Oct 9, 2025, 1:20:02 PM Quote this Post

Which, honestly, is fair enough. Though I could've done without the (imo passive aggressive) reminder to read their Code of Conduct before posting in their forum PM, considering it alludes to no such rule.

Nice, thanks! Sad it comes to this, though.	Posted by Sayso1#6450 on Nov 16, 2025, 8:25:29 PM Quote this Post
