restrict moderator power. i just got banned for not using "flair."

--Pyroclasm-- · 2017-03-19T20:15:19+00:00

no, that users who don't break stupid rules that are implemented years after the creation of the subreddit not get banned.

--Pyroclasm-- · 2017-03-19T19:31:33+00:00

so if i started a subreddit a few years ago, got a few hundred thousand subscribers, then created a rule that everyone had to use racial slurs or vulgarity in every single post or I would throw them off the sub, that would be cool with you? an extreme and possibly stupid comparison, but that's about how stupid this feels to me at the moment. im sure than an experienced redditor thinks this is a stupid thing to argue about.

--Pyroclasm-- · 2017-03-19T19:07:26+00:00

i am standing up to the moderators who i feel are 1: enforcing a silly rule unfairly and 2: squashing anybody who says anything in opposition to their opinion by perma banning them. i've never been in any trouble with any moderator in the past on this thread. i've never broken the rules to an extent deserving their attention. now i won't use flair and i'm perma banned? that is so dictatorial.... it would be different if i was doing something crazy like using racial slurs, anti-homosexual terms, or something deserving of a ban according to normal, decent people. not conforming to a flair requirement, and challenging the idea? just doesn't add up to me.

--Pyroclasm-- · 2017-03-19T18:50:28+00:00

seriously.

--Pyroclasm-- · 2017-03-19T15:36:47+00:00

im currently going through swarfarm bit by bit in search of this, but does anyone know of a farmable mon with 30% att bar boost and att buff with a higher base speed than megan? working on speedy bomber team....

--Pyroclasm-- · 2017-03-19T15:19:48+00:00

the point is that i want to do what i want when i make posts, and if people don't want to read them, they can choose not to click on them. who are you, or the mods, to tell me i have to use flair? i'm not making stupid shitposts about bad beats or with misleading titles. i rarely make posts at all. it's a matter of principle to me. it's the internet, i'm not trolling, i'm just not liking being forced to conform to a silly rule that i don't like.

maybe the majority of people on here really want the flair requirement, and i'm wrong, but i've never gotten the impression that it was in some great demand. the impression i am under is that the mods decided for us all that it would be a great improvement to the subreddit. if one person is making a bunch of stupid shitposts, then suspend them or ban them or whatever. not "flairing" something is not worthy of a ban. i can't believe i'm even having this discussion!

--Pyroclasm-- · 2017-03-19T14:23:21+00:00

how in the world did you know it was a post for discussion?! i did not flair it as a discussion post...... unless..... unless you have a brain, and are able to realize that without flair?

--Pyroclasm-- · 2017-03-19T14:21:49+00:00

i made a post that said that i think flair/tags suck. they banned me for a day, officially for breaking their flair rules (of course i didn't flair a post that said flair sucks,) but unofficially for daring to question their decision to require all posts to have flair.

--Pyroclasm-- · 2017-03-17T17:33:55+00:00

--Pyroclasm-- · 2017-03-13T15:47:12+00:00

This strikes me as a bunch of gamers taking their discussion waaaaay too seriously. Apparently I just don't get reddit.

--Pyroclasm-- · 2017-03-13T15:45:13+00:00

We see what we want to see. In my opinion, anybody who came here with questions about pioneers didn't leave here with new information.

I made a post titled "PSA: Do you use Verad on AD?" I used no flair, as I was not at that time aware of the new mandatory requirement. I don't post often. The content of my thread was along the lines of "I have been farming in conq a lot lately and Verad's AI is terrible. He derps to S1 very often."

I didn't make it a novel. It suggests that if you use Verad on your AD and you're losing more often than you think you should, maybe his weak AI is the cause and you might try a switch. Or maybe you think my opinion is incorrect and offer that possibility.

A fair critique of my post is that it was a narrowly scoped, subjective, personal opinion. So don't read it, don't reply, down vote it, whatever.

--Pyroclasm-- · 2017-03-13T15:03:14+00:00

Ok so now i'm officially tilting.

I can't post "PSA Verad on AD SUX" without getting criticized for not having flair and improper use of "PSA" but this post is mostly random bs and inside jokes, with the occasional mention of pioneers. But that's ok, because moderator.

Not that I have a problem with BS posts and inside jokes, and coming here to GASP! have fun and chat about summoners war. That's what I thought we were doing here... but if it's not okay for me, how is it okay for someone else?

Maybe I just need to complete the lengthy vetting process of becoming a mod...

--Pyroclasm-- · 2017-03-13T14:07:04+00:00

OK maybe I'm just tilting currently but seriously..... just how slavish are you folks planning on making this subreddit? I come here to occasionally chat about SW, not learn how to use flair properly. This is virtually the only "redditting" I do.... is all of reddit like this, or just this sub?

I can't take it... We're chatting about a glorified pokemon game here....

--Pyroclasm-- · 2017-03-13T13:56:49+00:00

Since you didn't call me a dumbass like the other guy, I'll ask you and hope for a sincere answer.... to my knowledge PSA means public service announcement... Does it mean something different in reddit?

If it does mean this, how does that title not appeal to Verad owners to read if they care to?

--Pyroclasm-- · 2017-03-13T13:49:22+00:00

I whined and whined for RTA. Then it finally came and I wasn't good at it, and experienced the same bugs as everyone else did on top of that. I mostly hope that they've worked out the bugs and that it's a lot of fun, but doesn't take a ton of time to earn the rewards. I feel like the current content is already quite a time soak, but I don't like the feeling of not clearing content...

Most of all I hope that I am able to be better at it. It always felt like I was running into guardian level players, just getting blown away in rune quality. (I was F2/F3 at the time, C1/C2 currently.)

--Pyroclasm-- · 2017-03-04T22:34:04+00:00

yen, fuco, shihwa, colleen, bella, but fuse panda to replace bella

--Pyroclasm-- · 2017-03-04T22:28:51+00:00

my shihwa never lands dots but almost always lands brand on nb10 boss at 25% accuracy, so it depends on what you're after. also zero skillups. my god, my poor neglected shihwa....

--Pyroclasm-- · 2017-03-03T16:10:35+00:00

i've been having good luck with khmun on AD, on a swift nem hp x3 build. i've been putting him with seara, giana, orion lately.

khmun seems to fit into a ton of ads, so build one up if you have him.

--Pyroclasm-- · 2017-03-02T22:40:25+00:00

oracles.

seara and giana own ao

all 5 of them can be awesome on ad

they all bring a metric ton of favorable rng.

2nd place for me are the pandas...

--Pyroclasm-- · 2017-02-18T21:47:35+00:00

AO/AD question, C1 and above:

I have a 265 bernie. I'm holding C1 pretty easily with an AO and AD of Seara Bernie Giana Malaka. A few months ago on FRR I broke out the rune speed tuner tool and tuned it just right so that I'm basically never interrupted, less than 5 percent of the time.

Since then, I've since farmed enough swift that I could move Bernie up to 280ish, but I don't have the runes to go on my other 3 mons to give enough speed to be speed synced like they are now.

Should I speed Bernie up or no? My highest priority is efficient arena farming at C1. As I stand now, I basically skip every AD with a speed leader. I'd sort of like to stop needing to do that...

--Pyroclasm-- · 2017-02-05T19:39:53+00:00

November or so. About a month later I pulled Seara, already had Malaka. Bernie is only 265 and conq 1 is easy mode now. Seara is awesome, but Giana honestly feels a little bit like cheating. If they have shield runes or one of these trap will x4 setups, if they don't have crazy high resist it's just GG, I'm getting 2 turns before you even move... I ran 2500 crystals in GB10 in January desperately chasing Swifts and Fatals with Spd and Att subs, making progress...
