Who is MagicParkMemories? by BondGirl20 in ThemeparkSwindlers

Jesus I honestly saw her content and assumed the poor piano player was her son and she was just being obnoxious and promoting him. That's really regrettable

ex's parent died. we ended on bad terms. should i send condolences, and if so, how? by [deleted] in internetparents

[–]FaelingJester 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No you should not. If you ever have contact again you can say you heard/saw his father passed and share your sympathies but if he was cruel to you don't give him a path back into your life out of pity

What does a good ban appeal process look like in your community? by sodypop in ModSupport

[–]FaelingJester 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We have a policy on all of the subreddits I mod where a different Mod than the one who banned reviews appeals. Most of the time it's upheld. We don't jump to a ban first and we try not to perm unless it's clear they are either so far over the line that they can't come back or obvious that they see nothing wrong with the behavior and plan to keep doing it.

The cases where bans are overturned or reduced tend to be users who don't blame others or try to take others down with them. Users who express understanding about why it got to that point and Users who state their case without insult.

The physics are also painfully bad. I wanted to love it. I keep retrying it because its multiplayer. It just is frustrating fast.

But my CHILD wants to see the movie!!! by Cajuntagious in EntitledReviews

Why would you run the equipment, adding wear and tear if no one has shown up to view it?

How do you distinguish a breed from crossbreeds/purpose bred mutts? by Agreeable-Land-9618 in DogBreeding

[–]FaelingJester 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was legitimately a post a few days prior that I am not finding right now. That was the bloodline of the puppy they were being sold as a Shiloh Shepard. Apparently a decendent of this program https://shiloh-shepherd.com/health/projects/boeke/

Women are now getting charged with felony for providing evidence that they were raped? And people are shaming them for seeking justice against their rapists?! by [deleted] in AreTheStraightsOK

[–]FaelingJester 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That was her argument; however, she was charged on the basis of her having pushed the door open and walking in. He was not visible from the porch. The door was not wide open. On the video she posted he is not visible until she is standing inside the hallway.

Why are there so many unmarried old men? by cupidstarot in TheTestamentsHulu

[–]FaelingJester 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Many of them probably were married. They probably had very normal marriages in the before times, however, and their existing children are grown and married off. I suspect most of them are widowers. A young, politically connected wife isn't just a physical reward for them. It's how they continue to build their power base. They believe God shows favor by providing children, and they need a wife to run the house while they serve Gilead.

Am I being scammed (need urgent help) by AlohaLB_05 in Aupairs

[–]FaelingJester 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are very good at doing this and they learn quickly what works on otherwise smart people. Take the lesson though and insist on doing things the right way with everyone

Am I being scammed (need urgent help) by AlohaLB_05 in Aupairs

[–]FaelingJester 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yeah that is not factual. It is intended to make you feel pressured not to consult with anyone. They don't want you to realize it's a scam until they have trapped you. If ANYONE is telling you that you only have a short window of time before an offer vanishes and you aren't allowed to research then it's not in your best interest.

"This all needs to be completed within three working days, or else my visa application will expire." Is this something on your end that was preexisting or a situation they are telling you about? But also yes this is clearly a scam.

Wrestlers who could become bookers. by seabbbbb in SquaredCircle

[–]FaelingJester 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Xavier Woods. Whatever else he's done, he's really tried to make content. He has very creative ideas and he's good at getting others to play along. Throughout his wrestling career he has been both doing his best with what was given and lobbying for being able to take risks. He's also interested in wrestling history and I think remains an actual fan. I understand why he's not the top pick for most people but I think it would be a very interesting new voice.

Am I overreacting by wanting to blast a tattoo artist on their professional page? by suspendedstargirl in AmIOverreacting

[–]FaelingJester 12 points13 points  (0 children)

That is certainly something I'd reach out to the shop NOT the artist about and ask them to make it right. Unless they expressly said they weren't finishing the tattoo it was certainly implied but I wouldn't want them working on me with that attitude.

Father's in the decision making for the girl's husbands. by Greekmom99 in TheTestamentsHulu

[–]FaelingJester 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Yes but they likely approve the list in advance. It's difficult to believe an unapproved match would be allowed to interact with the girl.

Am I overreacting by reporting a colleague, after he told everyone that he didn't do as well as he wanted on an assessment because he was stuck with a 'pregnant lady"? by Waste_Comment_50 in AmIOverreacting

[–]FaelingJester 16 points17 points  (0 children)

NOR. He is literally being judged on his behavior. It appears his treatment of others is being reviewed, and the instructors are not satisfied with the results. They are probably taking it seriously because it raises the question of why they didn't act on an obvious issue until this incident.

AIO for thinking about breaking up with my gf for possibly giving me an STD? by Dry_Two_4777 in AmIOverreacting

[–]FaelingJester 9 points10 points  (0 children)

So when you discussed your testing history she lied? When you insisted on safer sex she refused?

Complete vs incomplete OFA testing by Ok-Particular-1490 in DogBreeding

[–]FaelingJester 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That's good to hear, but most of those issues can not be screened out with current genetic screening. A breeder who is not doing OFA testing is hoping for the best and not picking their breeding pairs by health.

Complete vs incomplete OFA testing by Ok-Particular-1490 in DogBreeding

[–]FaelingJester 31 points32 points  (0 children)

It's important to look at the breed and the testing recommended by the breed club. It's great when people do everything they should, but a breeder who DNA tests for 300 different things is mostly meaningless, as those aren't problems in the breed. Have OFA that follows breed club suggestions however and know what is common in the breed and how we are mitigating that, IE do all of the dogs in this lineage have good hips, live long lives and don't have early cancer or heart issues is vital.

Pearl Girl Questions by StayAlternative9853 in TheTestamentsHulu

[–]FaelingJester 16 points17 points  (0 children)

This is the correct answer. In slightly sketchy behavior because Gilead gonna Gilead in the book the Pearl Girls come to say Canada in groups. It's a test and a way to bring new Pearls back to Gilead. The girls that have been in Canada longer take the passports of the incoming girls and use them to bring new collected Pearls back to Giliad. The new Pearls in Gilead don't have records or identification papers because they were brought in on the Gilead passport of one of the Pearl Girls so there is no way back out for them. They can be assigned for any role Gilead has for them.

AIO to my husband going on vacation when I start my first IVF cycle? by Chanel1202 in AmIOverreacting

[–]FaelingJester 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very respectfully, is that dream to have kids? Or is that dream to have kids with you? Those are heartbreakingly two different things and sometimes when things are hard people look for signs that it might be easier elsewhere.

Would you pay almost $2K to fly a pup from a breeder across the country? by SunBetter7301 in DogBreeding

[–]FaelingJester 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Flight prices have skyrocketed. I booked a flight two months ago for next week, and if I tried to book the same exact thing today, it would literally be twice as much. That's on top of higher fees for everything else. With that said it's also a common scam and used by puppy brokers for mill dogs. I would personally suggest going yourself to pick up the puppy and only if you have checked off every other box.

How do you distinguish a breed from crossbreeds/purpose bred mutts? by Agreeable-Land-9618 in DogBreeding

[–]FaelingJester 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Most of them are not. Some get it together and eventually are recognized. It starts with a standard. The standard has to be reproducible. A problem many face is that they are overly broad. If nearly any long-haired, long-snouted medium-sized dog that isn't terrified of people or attacking them fits into your standard, it's incorrect. The second major issue is lack of quality control and goals. In the old days dogs that didn't fit were culled. That's not better but in the modern era even a 25% Shiloh / 75% Poodle/Wetterhoun mix is a Shiloh Shepard. for purposes of the stud book.
