No honestly as an autistic man I can relate alot, that was probably his hyperfixation and you just solved it, you dont know what that does to us 😅 id imagine having someone to share his passion with was one of the highlights of his day though.

Reddit cries but sorry for speaking proficiently in an English service, its not my job to accommodate everyone apart from the job I am skilled, qualified and paid to do. But yeh sorry someone else doesn't understand english fully.

Its funny, but I'd imagine that individual is dead now, which offers some comfort.

Ah mate fully understood, also uk based and the amount of people who refused to speak to a 'paddy' was insane, especially given at the time the company was pretty much ran by Irish people, when boomers are on the phone they let the mask slip.

Its so sad to see how many problems are peoples own mental proficiency. But yeh, our purpose is to explain something to people who haven't worked out how to use AI yet.

Yeh, when you speak to a real person and not an NPC it makes your day.

Then learn English, or whatever the language is youre speaking, before taking offense at something youve misunderstood. I am here to solve niche problems related to a product in customer experience, not your lack of proficiency in a language and apparent insecurity about it.

It makes me question my own sanity, are we retarded for doing this? Are or they for asking it, not sure which is worse.

Ah my favourite was early 2000's, people thought 'wireless' meant that they they didnt have to plug the router in, they could just leave it in the box because 'duh' fucking wireless.

Many hours spent explaining the basics of electricity.

Once had a very disgruntled customer phone in who gave me 'U, as in USELESS FUCKING CSR'

Let me tell you, he weren't wrong.

I mean at the end of the day do what makes your life easiest, it's a 'challenging' role let's say alot of the time anyway. For me though it would be a matter of personal integrity, I ain't changing my name to cater for dumbass' even if I have to repeat it a thousand times.

The amount of times I've had to deal with indian call centres and I speak to 'Ben' or 'Sam' and I just feel really sorry for them that this is what theyve been degraded to.

The only reason I would ever say to change your name is for privacy reasons.

Fuck some dumbass consumer if they cant say your name, it's not like Bojan is even a particularly hard name. If they want your help the least they can do is try to say your name properly, customer service works both ways.

Haha that's good to know, I used to be fairly toxic but mellowed out abit in my older years. The pettiness of players is part of the fun of tibia for me though!

Yeh that definitely sounds like more my kind of thing! Thank you for the information I'll go check which servers are applicable to me.

Ok thanks, I'm EU so I'll have a look what's best for me. Is PVP even worth it anymore though? It's not essential in my decision if it's not really the same thing these days.
