My stupid friend on rec room told me to pour rubbing alcohol on my controller to fix stick drift so I tried and it did nothing. It only made the controller have very bad issues with tracking. There is really nothing I could do and I really don't want to buy a new controller all together. If anyone could tell me how to fix this it would be much appreciated.
Esta é uma boa pergunta?

Hi,
Rubbing alcohol is great to loosen contaminants and clean away flux/corrosion residue if it is done correctly and using a cotton or a foam swab.
However, if you have any dirt or debris on the device, alcohol will just loosen them and carry them along potentially causing other issues if it is not cleaned properly.
The stick drift is actually caused by the worn part of a potentiometers, nothing that rubbing alcohol would sort out.
If you are in a position of disassemble the device and get it cleaned in an ultrasonic cleaner would be my first recommendation as the alcohol and the contamination probably seeped in to the intricate parts of the device.

Is it gonna stay like this or will it dry and be fixed?
@Kenra Driver
Try gently cleaning it again using Isopropyl Alcohol 99%+ (available from electronics parts stores).
Rubbing alcohol has additives which can leave residues when it has dried and these can cause problems.
IPA99%+ leaves no residues.
Make sure that the device is not powered at the time of cleaning i.e. disconnect the battery.
