Default Whose brilient idea was it to use spell id's!?

I tried to toe the line yesterday with my post but my anger allowed me to go over it

The reason for the anger? The profitui devs decided, with no notice to the community, that they were going to completely change the paradigm for the raid buttons. My anger was due to finding this out after updating the spell editor with all the new spells from the previous live update.

The devs have all the right to change the program as they see fit. Though they need to take into account the community when making decisiones (if they want a happy community).

They had two options. To go cold-turkey or support and phase out the old paradigm while bringing in the new. They chose the former.

I was supprised they didn't have the foresight to choose deprication. Offer in the updater an option of which to use or include instructions in the install to rename the file to use. This would allow people to learn how to retrieve the spell ids (use the logger) or even give time for someone to create a page that would display the spell id for each spell.

The path the devs chose will leave people as frustrated as before because their buttons are as dificult to change as ever.

After the tirade I saw yesterday I've decided to pull support for the UI.

Thanks to all the support my efforts.
