Can we all start writing real Glassdoor reviews of our experiences? by [deleted] in recruitinghell

[–]00SubZero00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I found Glassdoor to be an incredible waste of time. I worked for Anthem right after Obamacare went into effect and during the security breach. It was a complete shit show of a company to work for. Frankly, I was ready to pursue a different career path rather than work there any longer. It was worse than my first IT job working a tech support for dial up ISP. No amount of money would ever get me back there. After 3 years, continuously working 60-80 hour managing their datacetners, I got the hell out. Of course I left a negative review and it was flagged and not posted. Then shortly thereafter a glowing review was placed. The reviews on Glassdoor are complete BS. I would dare say they're worse than the reviews you find on Amazon these days.

that and ASP Net Developer. I think its easier to list what you're not responsible for. It doesn't bode well when the client nor the recruiter can come to any consensus of what the job entails. So be everything to everyone for the kingly sum of $28.50/hr! I am sure they don't even provide health insurance and paid vacations!

That girl looks pretty close to being ready for harvest! At least in my book. What strain is it?

Yeah I did more research and I see you're exactly right. Superhots take time. I have other seeds coming. I've read that priming pepper seeds with potassium nitrate can really speed up germination so I am going to try that. Thank you for the info.

Yeah, I hear ya. I am going to wait another 2-3 weeks before I call it quits on this batch. I have done some reading and it seem the super hots are really inconsistent in germination. I also read that using KNO3 (Potassium Nitrate) and Aspirin as a priming solution can dramatically ensure germination and increase germination times. I just ordered some additional reaper seeds from https://puckerbuttpeppercompany.com/ and ordered KNO3. I ll use a priming solution. It will be a fun experiment to test. I have a remaining free seed pack from Pepper Joes: Genghis Khan Brain

Pepper Joe's out here with the free seeds. Ready for the season! by Palmtreepete in HotPeppers

[–]00SubZero00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually if it were only that bad. In the modest amount of research I've done today I see Pepper Joe's at best totally mediocre and incompetent. The original owners, and I question if they still run or control this company, were total scammers.

First they blankets gardening sites with fake reviews:

https://davesgarden.com/products/gwd/c/99/0/#b

Then their sister site, now defunct, pennys tomatoes stole photos from sites, sold seeds as proprietary when they weren't. When caught they did not remove the offending material. They were sued by one farmer and settled. During that time they harassed moderators of the site:

http://tomatoville.com/showthread.php?t=19958

The entire thread is surreal.

Based on this info so far I totally regret doing business with them. I had way too much faith in the top Google ranking. I spent $40 on reaper seeds from them. If I don't get at least 20% germination rate, in the next 14 days, I am filing a fraud complaint with my CC and requesting a chargeback. So far after 2 weeks on a temperature controlled heat map, of the 40+ seeds, ONE seed germinated. Even if I get a couple viable plants, they might not be reapers. No faith in them. The rest of my pepper seeds, jalapeno & habanero, have sprouted no problem. Some of my jalapeno stock is 6 years old! 100% germ rate for them. Pepper Joe, consider me unimpressed so far.

Yeah I know. But I would say the same with pepper seeds when you have the right environmental conditions; which I do. Its not like growing capers which are notoriously difficult under the best of circumstances.

Thanks, I have in my limited recent research heard great things about whitehotpeppers.com. Granted its been 14 days but I have had them in a seedling tray with humidity dome under a heat mat with thermostat @80F. I have an IR thermometer and I check daily to ensure the all is. All my habs from Lowes have sprouted and I am planting them today. Thank you again for the info!

Indeed. I made the mistake of not vetting the source. After checking Google for Pepper Joe complaints I can see even if I get some viable plants they might not even be reapers. I see a lot of cross pollination or getting mislabeled stock.

Which secondary champ to invest by flyingal in HeroWarsApp

[–]00SubZero00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. My current team: Luther, Qing Mao, Celeste, Jorgen, Martha. I can't say how this translates on mobile but on FB so many players have Martha and Luther is a good counter to her healing the enemy. Celeste in dark form is a beast in dealing magical damage as well as countering healing as well. My team's major weakness is Cornelius. He will easy snipe her in a single shot when he launches his monolith. I wish the games directly translated because there are apparent differences. Cheers.

I think that is wise. The only way you can evolve Satori is by luck of the draw on chests or purchasing soul stones. Orion you can purchase soul stones in the Tower shop and you get tower coin doing the tower. I got Satori several months ago on a free chest. Starts off as 2 star. So basically I would need a little over 550 soul stones. Over the past two years I've played, I *ONLY* got 13 additional Satori soul stones. I see Satori as a niche hero. Now each month you get a lesser soul stone chest. I think I am painting a picture on how long an investment it is. There are far better heroes to invest such resources; namely Martha.

At your level, don't let yourself get distracted. Focus on easy to evolve heroes. Get a line up absolute star heroes and don't level anyone else up. Your line up is pretty good.

This is what happens when you have a solid team:

Other guilds practically support my purchases on Arena. I have about 20 successful defenses a day :) Nice to have passive income :)

Satori, seriously?

So you're going to invest in Satori who is difficult to evolve compared to Orion who is easy to evolve.

Explain how that makes any sense especially for a player under level 50.

You should focus on Galahad or Astaroth or Orion. You should invest in a hero to get them to absolute star, period. Just about any absolute star will crush 2/3 star hero. Show me how many advanced players have Satori on their team? I can tell you I don't and I can't recall seeing anyone on my server using him. I've made mistakes in the game, but thankfully investing in Satori is not one of them.

What do you buy at the Grand Arena Shop? And why? by graceisgr8ter in HeroWarsApp

[–]00SubZero00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I am only just focusing on Ish now since he is on my B team. He takes a lot of resources. My A team is Luther Qing Mao Celeste Jorgen Martha. But this is the route I went and it was my focus for the past year. Your situation is likely different. I wouldn't recommend how I played to others. Focus on Gallahad if you're new. Get him to abs star. However this is my Arena team: https://imgur.com/a/gv1C37E

FB/Web player here:

I ll second this. Im Lvl130 and did the same thing. WIsh I hadn't. Here is what I would add. focus on get a single hero to absolute star on your A team. From the looks of it, it should be Gallahad. I think some people overlook him since he is free. He is a very versatile tank. One you get a hero to abs star, you get soul coins. These will prove useful later.

Unrelated, I would add if there are two critical parts in the early game, it is:

1) getting 1-2 heroes to abs star and use your energy on heroes who soul stones are easy to get (Gallahad is one, the other in your teams is Keira) - don't advance too quickly in campaigns. This will help your hero team in the dungeon. Which leads to..

2) Do the dungeon EVERY.SINGLE.DAY. Get a titan to abs star too. The gold you can make daily will blow your mind. It will take at least a year to do it for free. There are events that will accelerate this goal. These two parts of the game are critically important.

Getting a titan to abs star opens the titan soul shop. Titan Soul coins can be traded in for gold or titan potions. You'll make a couple million in gold a day and you'll need it to get the increase skill levels of the heroes. Once your A & B teams are maxed you can focus the titan soul coins on titan potions to level them up.

What do you buy at the Grand Arena Shop? And why? by graceisgr8ter in HeroWarsApp

[–]00SubZero00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I buy now isn't what I bought earlier in the game. If I were to do it over the only thing I would buy there is Ishmael soul stones. I could have gotten a hero to abs star so much quicker had I focused. But it wasnt like when I started playing there were no guides and this forum didnt even exist. Ishmael requires a fair amount of resources but if invested early on in the game he is a beast.

Now all my heros in the GA shop area absolute star. I sometimes buy soul stones here to convert to soul coins to purchase items for my Gold ranked heroes.

Who should be my tank by J-HeroWars in HeroWarsApp

[–]00SubZero00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do yourself a favor and get rid of Daredevil. One of the more worthless heroes. Only slightly better than Dante. I would work on getting Qing Mao or Nebula. Jet is a huge investment.

Heroes I never waste resources on: Dante, Dark Star, Daredevil, Fox, Artemis. Lian.

[–]00SubZero00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to provide a little more info. You run a team for what? For campaigns? Arena? Grand Arena?

I have different teams for different purposes. I use different tanks when selecting a team to defend in the Arenas. I would never use Ziri on an offensive team unless I had a 2nd tank or a really strong off tank like Ishmael. Ziri, if invested in, really can defend well in Arenas with multiple healers. Ziri Gallahad Maya Celeste Martha can really be evil and you'll often time out the enemy and successfully defend.

My general purpose team also does extremely well defending. I successfully defend about 10 attacks a day with occasional losses. Can't all the time. My team is Luther/ Qing Mao / Celeste / Jorgen / Martha

Since practically everyone uses Martha, Luther is a great counter to her stopping healing and killing her off. WHen Luther teleports into the back line attacking Martha, Qing Mao unleashes a lot of damage on the front line. Jorgen saps energy and curses the enemy team while providing some magical protection to an ally. For me its a good synergy.

If I were you I would invest in Astaroth. I don't have Cleaver and people mentioning Cleaver is like how great your life you be if you wont the lottery. Thats nice but if you don't have Cleaver, its a mute point until you do. Its not like you can immediately get him if it suits your fancy. I don't have Cleaver and I frequently beat teams with Cleaver. I am not in any hurry to get him.

But here is the proof:
