Replies for: What's the reason for not just making the method static?

just thinking about Ram's health :d Actually there's no real reason for making methods static. Can you give me advice for this concept i just want to know better and better

I would advise you to just make the method static, BUT you can probably do something like this:

public static function TagShouldBe()  {
    return (new self())->tagShouldBe();
}

Again, this is very hacky and I don't advise it. You should consider refactoring your code to solve the problem in the way you want to solve the problem.

i think making methods static should be fine and better than this 'hacky' thing :) Thank you for response I'm very appreciated.
