You know that’s generally not helpful, right?

Like, okay. Enders are not the best printers. It’s what they have. Most of us can’t just go out and get a printer just because it doesn’t meet your standards.

People should have realistic expectations, but Enders aren’t incapable of okay-prints, and with a lot of love, some awesome prints.

This is especially not helpful since it’s probably the filament needing to be dried and temp adjustments for the plastic.
