just say something like I appreciate the help, but I'd like to learn how to beat this level myself. I don't know why you are over complicating the responses

I'm not usually angry, but being stuck on a section of a level for 10 minutes because it has disappearing platforms, weird glitches and kaizo jumps with crazy reaction time/fast key inputs will get me mad especially when I'm seemingly the only one/one of a few struggling.

I also got frustrated at Gilded Glideway, really got pissed at that one, Nebulous You and Brute as well, but instead of trying to beat the latter 2, I just gave up. I will never understand why anyone thinks those levels are easy.

I also got mad at my own level, Snowgrave, because of weird bugs like the the character just couldn't double jump sometimes and would spazz out in place and that ladder wall jump would sometimes glitch out and make me jump at a low angle so I couldn't recover and had to redo the whole level. This is a different kind of hard, there are no requirements for a quick reaction time/inputs, almost the entire level can be mastered easily by anyone if they know all the tricks. It's glitches with bopimo! that made me angry.

Then, you add to that frustration folks butting in covering my screen with speech bubbles. In some cases just having them being around disturbs my focus, I just couldn't beat Gilded Glideway while other people were also playing even with Ghost mode on. I had to wait until nobody or only like 1 people were playing to try again.

@crime Unsolicited means I didn't ask for it, if I asked for it I would've not minded it. 💀

@Eri Yeah, but it's hard to think of something to say on the spot. I was gonna say "I don't need help" or "Leave me alone", not overcomplicating things like you said, but I was worried twilight would have taken this personally due to the wording, so I kind of played along for a bit. What I wanted to tell them is that I knew how to do those jumps and that I was experimenting, but I couldn't find the right words to use. The biggest problem was after when they tried to help another player and the back and forth set my fuse off, ok not exactly, the level was already doing a great job at that, but that was the straw that broke the camel's back for me.
