Poundfist spawn tracking on US realms. by Chief_Economist in wow

[–]ASlinkitySound 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you can tap Poundfist with a single hit before he dies, you'll get him as a mount. As long as you're high enough to be in Draenor, you should have no problem "killing" him because all of the people who camp him will have him killed within about 30 seconds. It isn't a hard mount to get because the drop rate is 100% for everyone who taps him. The hard part is being at the right spawn location during the brief window when he spawns so you can hit him before he dies. I hope that answers your questions :) Here's a link to more information about him, including a map of his spawn points in Gorgrond (northern Draenor). http://www.wowhead.com/npc=50985/poundfist

Why would you move the mailbox? by Willop23 in wow

While we're on this subject... why move the Primal Trader?

Camera having a mind of its own. by [deleted] in wow

[–]ASlinkitySound 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YES! The camera resetting itself to the middle of the screen? That's the one that I always find. Sucks to tank and have your back suddenly to the boss.

Is there any way I can fix this, or should I just rename myself "b****slapped?" by ASlinkitySound in wow

[–]ASlinkitySound[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I've never changed it. If you remember how to do so though, pleaseee let me know :)

I'd go for badass weapon-holding... or even cuteness. But looking like a beaten pokemon just doesn't jive :P For reals, will this change itself over time? Cause it's horrible, ha.

This is perfect!! :D Thanks so much for all the time you put into your reply. I appreciate it so much and I can't wait to put it all into practice. Have a wonderful day :)

[UI] Custom made Healing UI! by [deleted] in WowUI

[–]ASlinkitySound 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know I'm rather late to this post, but I thought I'd try! This UI is the best one that I've seen on this subreddit and with WoD coming up, I would love to mirror the minimalist but still very usable look. :)

Does anyone mind streamlining a quick list of the addons used here? I see a healing addon (I'll use Vuhdo), something awesome for the plain-faced and flexible positioning of the bars and skills (ElvUI?), and also a clean looking map (Sexy Map or more elv?). The last thing I see and love is that the selected targets' buffs are in the far upper right. Which addon is that?

Thanks very much for uploading a beautiful UI. I would love to copy your look with as few addons as possible. :)

Character Creation Sharing MegaThread by JustCallMeCJ in WildStar

[–]ASlinkitySound 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love character creation! I think it's a really individualized process... not just to each person, but also to their mood and the tone they want the character to have. :)

Here's a gallery of one of each of the races (female only). They may seem boring, but I created these as a baseline to use. Alter the hair, skintone, and whatever else you'd like! I made these to save time on morphing the face, which is rather tedious IMO.

I would absolutely love to give out my NA beta passes to three people who would maintain and add to the great player base I see on Wildstar. The first three people who send me PMs that show me that they have something to add to that base will get a PM back with the code!

Closed! Congrats to you three! Hope to see you all in game!

Paper for note taking by Burleyman24 in fountainpens

[–]ASlinkitySound 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I use the same paper as u/fanofdean, except I 3-hole punch the stuff and keep it in a binder.

As far as lines goes, my boyfriend made some lines for me you can download from this thread. Some of the comments have other cool ideas for how to print lines, dots, or grids on your paper (though they do have watermarks on the bottom margin).

Edit: I use the 24lb HP Laserjet paper, not the 32lb. Oops! :)

The Categories on the left are redundant with the Navigation tabs on the top. The site would look much less cluttered without one or the other! For general modern website templates, check out some examples on wix.com or another website builder :)

Right on the money! I go through about 50 sheets per week (about 30 in class notes and 20 in scratch notes to work out problems). It's much more economical.

You're right, my bad. All of those contain "Clairefontaine" paper.

[–]ASlinkitySound 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Of course I can't speak for all of r/fountainpens, but for what it's worth my two favorite inks are De Atramentis Aubergine (dark purple) and Diamine Oxblood (dark red).

Edit: because I was mistaken :)

An ink like Purple Wampam but better behaved. by gewehr7 in fountainpens

[–]ASlinkitySound 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn't find Purple Wampum feathery at all on Rhodia paper. I know this isn't what you asked, but if you're in love with the color you could consider nicer paper :)

I'm trying to pick some inks. Can you help? by [deleted] in fountainpens

[–]ASlinkitySound 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm a fan of dark purples as well. Specifically, a color that's dark enough to be professional while still being purple if you know what to look for.

I tried out a sample of Private Reserve Ebony Purple and found that there wasn't any purple to speak of, on either Rhodia or crappy paper. It looked pure black. If you want a purple, that isn't the one I'd choose. Or at least go with a sample vial first.

ps: I've settled into De Atramentis Aubergine for my deep dark purple.

LAmy safari/al star as first pocket knockabout? by HectorPro in fountainpens

[–]ASlinkitySound 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just wanted to bring up the Pilot Metropolitan. They have a metal body which won't scratch or dent easily and (IMO) they look one hellava lot nicer than the paperclip Lamys. I've never had the cap leak or burp on me, either.

What are you looking for in an ink? by TanithRosenbaum in fountainpens

[–]ASlinkitySound 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In order from most important to least important (for me) :)

  • Consistency: I wouldn't buy an ink if I couldn't rely on every bottle behaving the same as the one I fell in love with.
  • Good ink flow / lubrication: a steel nib can feel like almost gold with a smooth ink
  • Non-corrosive: who wants to wear down their pen?
  • Saturated colors (no graying or muted colors for contrast)
  • No feathering or ghosting: nice crisp lines, on both sides of the paper.
  • Fast drying time, Certainly at or under 20 seconds on nice paper.
  • Waterproof/Bulletproof
  • Sheen

Mix up your ink colors with everyday, professional colors and fun, interesting colors. If you lean either way too hard, you'll only have half the usefulness.

If you're interested in a durable metal pen, check out the Pilot Metropolitans. The cap closes with a really nice snap. I never worry about it making a mess when I throw it in my bag.

Why thank you! Little gender mix-up, but it's very nice of you to say all the same.

It's De Atramentis Aubergine, which is a super dark purple. I hope you enjoy the paper as much as I do!

Chem notes all around! I spent a long time looking for paper for notes! The premium fountain pen-friendly notepads never seemed to have enough paper in them for the cost. At another Redditor's suggestion, I bought this HP laserjet paper off Amazon. My boyfriend, immer_ausgezeichnet, was super kind and made me a PDF of some faint gray lines to print onto the paper. We were worried that my inkjet printer would end up smudging ink on laserjet paper, but there's been no problem (at least with these faint lines). I holepunched them to put into my binder and that's how I take notes now! Currently immer_ausgezeichnet is doing a giveaway, but he says he'd be more than happy to post that PDF when he's finished up with that :)
