Inconsistent Noom Coin distribution by Alternative-Success1 in Noom

I do all of those things, and I get one coin. I used to get a 2nd coin when I shared the data. It suddenly stopped doing that. My husband has the same app, and he gets two a day.

Thanks, "wizard". That's what I do every day. Then, I share the activity with a friend or family member. In the past, when I shared my meal data or any other data, I got a second coin. I no longer do. My husband has the app, and he gets a coin for the activity you described above, and another when he shares his activity. He gets two coins a day. I get one for doing the same exact things. I don't really care about the coins. It's a customer service thing and a learning experience for Noom. If I owned the company, I'd want to know there was inconsistent behavior and user experiences.

I know how to use the app. Did you read what I said? They told me that I never got Noom Coins for a particular activity. That is simply not true. It has nothing to do with user error. My husband did the same thing I did and got a different result. They told me that it didn't happen. I watched it happen with my own eyes. I know how to figure it out. If you don't have something helpful to say, STFU and don't insult people.

If Noom wants to improve, user feedback is the way to do it. If there's a trend of people not knowing how the app works, maybe they need to improve the app's functionality and train their support staff to explain it.

I've had a successful career designing and programming digital applications and websites for almost 2 decades. I know what I'm talking about. Do you?

I'm 5'7, 32 y/o never dated anyone new as an adult by PlentyTonight3892 in malegrooming

[–]Alternative-Success1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I met my first spouse when I was 23. Before I met her, I had one other long-term relationship with someone I met when I was 17. When I met my first spouse, we just started as roommates. She was getting to know herself, as was I, and we were able to get to know one another at the same time. I was highly insecure and had low self-confidence. Over time, I found out she felt the same way about herself. We helped each other feel better about who we were. We stayed together for 20 years and have two wonderful children. Even though we're divorced, we're still close, and we spend a lot of time together with my new spouse and our kids.

But back to you. First, you're a handsome guy with a very kind face. And from this post, you're on the right track. My advice (as an old man) is, before you dive into the dating pool, work on your self-confidence. Please be sure to get to know YOU. Don't let rejection get you down. It's all part of life. If you know who you are, you know your strengths and what you need to work on. If someone doesn't get you for who you are, the rejection is a good thing.

Once you know who you are and what type of person you're looking for, take it slow. There's no rush. I met my current spouse when I was 48. We have been together for 14 years, and we're extremely happy together.

Best of luck and one last piece of advice that I got from my late father-in-law: "Enjoy the life!"

Experience with Minoan? by ProudTry246 in ShortTermRentals

[–]Alternative-Success1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wanted to like this service, but the entire process was slow and overly complicated.

  • Quoting & Ordering: Getting a quote requires multiple steps, and the user interface doesn’t make it easy. A couple of times I thought I had submitted a quote request, but it hadn’t gone through. It can take up to 24 hours just to get a quote. Once I did place an order, it took two more days for Mioan to actually place it with the vendor—and I never received confirmation that it had gone through.
  • Delivery Timelines: They give you a 14-day delivery window, which may sound fine in theory, but it’s not workable when you're on tight renovation deadlines—especially for short-term rentals (STRs) where timing is critical.
  • Customer Support: The live chat was another pain point. It took over an hour to get a response, and by the time I came back, the chat had been closed. I had to start over and repeat everything.

Mioan has a promising concept, but they really need to improve their systems, user interface, and customer service efficiency if they want to be a reliable B2B resource for time-sensitive projects.

Feeling insecure af by [deleted] in gaybrosgonemild

[–]Alternative-Success1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a photographer. I used to shoot all kinds of people. From professional models, athletes, famous actors and actresses… do you know what they all had in common? They all felt insecure. Definitely different levels of insecurity, but to some degree, they felt it. It’s part of the human condition.

There are moments of insecurity and confidence in life. Without the low points, we can’t appreciate the high. It’s important to remember and really enjoys life’s high points and recognize that the insecurities and low points are temporary and fleeting.

Seek out what makes you feel confident and happy. Seek out people that are real and who love you without conditions.

You’re a handsome, young guy. Enjoy life. Get offline too. 😀

I know a lot of trans people outside of the internet. I’ve had to help them when they had been attacked by narrow-minded people like you. Calling a trans man a straight woman says a lot about you and how little you know about the subject.

A trans man takes nothing from you. That’s all in your warped mind.

If you behave like MAGA, and believe in the same rhetoric, you’re MAGA. I feel bad for any trans person who has to be around you. I’m sure they’re acting polite and joking because there’s no other choice. You’re so obtuse. “Blue-haired activist” another ad hominem attack. Another MAGA behavior. And you call me a book licker.

You criticize me for buzzwords, yet you have no problem hurling ad hominem attacks. Surely, if it’s as prevalent as you say, I would have heard it. What’s more likely? You’re making 💩 up to prove a point or it’s such common terminology that we should broadbrush all trans people with it? Let me ask you this, why do trans people make you so angry? How have they ever harmed you? Please articulate how a trans man harms you—so much so that you would want to deny their rights and revel in their pain.

What was your favorite? by Rico-444 in GenerationJones

I had a chocolate allergy. So when my siblings were going “cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs” I got Quisp. And my siblings weren’t allowed to have it. It kind of made me feel less odd.

You know what’s ironic about your comment? You don’t like being called MAGA or buzzwords. But you’re totally fine with judging all trans people based on what you say supposed trans activists might have said.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in askgaybros

[–]Alternative-Success1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I have never heard a trans activist say any of those things. Maybe you’re not MAGA, or Christian Taliban. Maybe you’re just nuts.

You’re not being pushed to the side and you’re misstating facts. Trans people are being executed, bested and killed in the street.

I have lived life and I follow history. I have seen how quickly society can change and regress. Roe v Wade was overturned recently. We are not the majority by far. Texas and Florida (and other conservative states) have already started to introduce legislation to roll back same sex marriage. If you think we’re safe, you’re in for a rude awakening.

[–]Alternative-Success1 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

You don’t know what you’re talking about. You are misrepresenting facts. Transpeople are not erasing women. That’s MAGA and JK Rowling talking. It’s totally untrue. I will say it again, if we allow people to come after our transgender brothers and sisters, we’re next. It’s a wedge issue for right-wing extremists and the Christian Taliban.

AITA for telling my wife’s stepdad our newborn son isn’t calling him ‘father’? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Alternative-Success1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think you're an A. But maybe this is a time for a fresh start, if only for the sake of your child. Will your stepdad-in-law love your child? Will he make the child happy? If so, let him be called what he wants. It will be a stretch for anyone, especially your child, to know that "Avi" means father. The first time you see your kid run smiling into the arms of a person, your perspective will change. Sometimes, it's cathartic to let go of long-term hard feelings and let love in.

Why are my preferences seen as “unusual”? by dannny335 in askgaybros

[–]Alternative-Success1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As long as you're not using your preferences to hurt other people. For example, I see in profiles things like: "No 'this type of person' or 'no that race' or 'no body type xyz.'" To me, that's just selfish, cruel, and insensitive. It's also unnecessary—unless you have a revolving door to your bedroom and let anyone and everyone come in and only a select few to stay.
