Actors - The unknown feature to make your game run faster

No one really suggested this, @DasKairo was suggesting that this “tutorial” seems more of a resource. The Resources > Community Tutorials guide defines a tutorial having a clear, step-by-step instruction, which this topic lacks. And a resource, dumbed down is just explaining in detail

A category mismatch can lead to a warning which I’ve gotten before, that is if some unemployed dude flagged your topic.

And if this was a resource, it really needs an explanation on how to use actors efficiently; since parallel luau can have a huge performance overhead if used incorrectly, which just means that it’s worse to use parallel instead of just using normal serial code - and leads to wasted time and effort

TL;DR
i dont see anyone compelling the OP to take it down, except for the OP him/herself. Cairo was just giving valid constructive criticisms

In a nutshell:
improper application of parallel luau = worse performance than normal serial code
resource = book of wisdom
tutorial = a procedure to do/make something
