Greetings,

I do acknowledge that this is an area to post issues, and that perhaps this kind of message should not go here. But, to be honest, I'm new in github and I don't know where else to give my feedback and honest thanks to Sorepeeong and everyone else that helped in the creationg of XivAlexander.

I have been playing this game since 2013 and I live in the Canary Islands, this means that, regardless of which server I pick, I will always get +100 ping in the game and this conditioned my whole experience in the game. I always had to pick my raid jobs based in whether if I could go 0 SS with them in the builds or not so I could 'attempt' to double weave with minimum delay, but... Truth is that it always happened.

Back in Shadowbringers, when GNB was released, I was loving a lot that job's content, but I ended up with a burn-out because I could simply not get orange logs as with other jobs, even though I was doing similar optimization than others playin git. The reason? The job had a shitton of double-weaving and it ended up delaying my GCD a lot.

I discovered XivAlexander just a year ago and it has been a revolution to my gameplay, at last I can double-weave, I can play the game even in other crazy data centers like NA (Where even single-weaving gave me a GCD delay). It reached a point in which, these three days without this dear tool have made me notice even further just how much I got used to 'being able to play like those 40-pingers from the rest of the continent'.

So, what I wanted to say is that, I know that the issues has only received critiques and a lot of ungrateful people complaining, even if XIVALEXANDER IS FREE, bitching about the fact that it wasn't up (Even if it was FFXIV messing up in 6.3) and only putting stress on the dev. But, I really want to give my honest thanks. Thanks for your patience and for your work, and for enriching the lives of many and allowing us to not feel like third-class players due to ping-related issues.

I hope that 2023 will be a great year and I'm sure that I will be enjoying it a lot thanks to this.

Best wishes to you ♥.

That is also what I want to say. It is really an useful creation which helps the high-ping players with the easiest way. Great appreciation to the developer and contributors.
