OMFG Love ya, tyvm for updating it. It's way better than DBM. Even though It's in alpha stages it does the job.
Project Updated: 3 months ago
i recall mmo-champ praising this addon, because its new and will always be up to date. and i loved it, but to make us wait this long after cata release is stupid.

Sounds like we just have to wait for a bit.
Shefki, kollektiv: we love DXE in Big Crits. It's so damn clean and always accurate. I've installed the translator, do you want your fans (such as me and my guild) to ship you logs from it even after you've got boss fights working?

Big thanks for the updates! Keep up the awesome work and i hope for another year with raiding using this outstanding addon!
Haters will always hate so please just /ignore them, we all know how much work you and the other Authors put into this addon and we all appreciate it!
Thank you Shefki, much appreciated!
TY so much for the update :)
If anyone have started on a skeleton on the Blackwing descent and/or twilight bastion I´d appreciate it. It's kind of a hard place to start learning how to add encounters. Gonna try and add some alerts and timers for some of the bosses atleast.
Take a break. you've done a really great job during wotlk. always prefered this addon over bw and dbm.
Would love to see it again, but if you don't have the time, then stop it.
Thanks :)
Screw these twits , I for on love this addon and all the time you put into it. I have had my entire guild switch over and i tel everyone i know to use it. I have dl'd he transcriptor and will be sending you the 5 mans and 5 mans heroics and as soon as we start the 10mans and 25 ill send them as well. DXE is hands, shoulders , tits and a pair on balls better then DBM.
Here I'll tell you what. I'll write the encounters, keep them to myself and my guild and then I don't have people demanding me to do anything or people who think they can manage my time better than me.
P.S. I didn't have time two weeks ago to write a guide for you since I was working 12 hour days for things outside of my control at work.
For someone who claims to be interested in helping. You haven't even done my suggestion.
I posted asking about how to add stuff to DXE because I was going to sit down and add encounters as I got to them. Instead you brushed me off and told me to upload chat text for encounters. I'm sure this comment is going to make you more frustrated, but you're overwhelmed because you don't have a guide explaining how to add encounters and you brush off people who offer to help.
If you'd sat down 2 weeks ago when I asked and written out a bit about how to add an encounter, then I would have been doing something about the encounters right now. You'd be less frustrated with what people are asking for and less stressed because you'd done it before Cata came out.
Thank you for all of the addons that you write and continue to support. Remember that people emailing you is a sign that everyone loves your addons, even if they don't say it.
