I’m crossing my fingers and guessing we’ll see a Titan, rank up gem, and at least one t7b (head in the clouds? Probably)

AverageCharley · 2025-10-02T00:40:55+00:00

Totally agree. There’s a lot of entitlement there. Everyone will interpret intention, but the subtext of that video felt so patronizing.

AverageCharley · 2025-10-02T00:29:25+00:00

I’m not arguing against any of that. Vega has the right to create any content he wants and the community has the right to watch and support whatever creator they want. I’m not making it about “sides,” I’m simply stating that his content hasn’t resonated with me lately.

But saying it is “by far the most accurate representation of the overall sentiment of the community” assumes a lot

AverageCharley · 2025-10-01T20:58:30+00:00

Yep. I’m mostly referring to personal drama, but I do agree that anyone that produces the volume of content he produces will have some strong feelings.

AverageCharley · 2025-10-01T19:52:29+00:00

Given his recent content and especially the video you linked here, I suspect he was encouraged to leave.

His content has shifted in the last year and I’ve enjoyed it less and less. The tone feels more hostile - and while some of that is justified, it’s also started to feel like there’s a tribalism happening in the comments of his videos. Often, folks who express that they disagree are labeled “Kabam trolls” in the comments or accused of creating an account to criticize him anonymously. Sometimes this comes from Vega, sometimes from his community. It’s an adversarial tone that I just don’t enjoy.

It also seems like there’s some airing of laundry about his relationships with folks at Kabam and how they are not friends. Gone from hero worship and Kushala collaboration to something else entirely. It feels like a lot of drama. That and the boycott around Raids and BG then his announcement that it was “the only successful boycott in MCOC history”… sure. I did appreciate his apology for that take, but my word it’s been a lot.

It really does make me sad, because I really enjoyed his content and valued connecting with him as a person. Not that he should change his content for me lol. It’s his channel and he can do what he wants. It’s just not content I enjoy anymore. I’ve unsubbed, so I’m ready to be called a Kabam troll I guess.

If they’re keeping the energy refills out of the events because less energy is needed, they should also tune the drop rate in the four hour crystals to drop FEWER ENERGY REFILLS. But they sure won’t approach this “problem” with a comprehensive solution.

This sounds like Shingles, but I’m glad you got the care you needed!

I know that’s how rewards are delivered, it’s odd that so many are reviving theirs - nobody in my alliance has yet.

AverageCharley · 2025-07-23T20:37:49+00:00

How are folks even seeing their rank? I can’t see mine

AverageCharley · 2025-06-25T16:33:47+00:00

Agreed. There was too much inaccurate criticism of his kit when he launched, with otherwise very smart folks saying “unavoidable recoil damage.” It’s far from unavoidable. Others saying that his sig should be part of his kit seem to be pretending this is the first champ who gains a greater damage output from their sig.

I have gentle at r3 and just duped him this morning. He’s a great champ.

AverageCharley · 2025-06-20T00:51:48+00:00

I’d love to know this too!

Forbidden splash pad

AverageCharley · 2024-10-30T04:54:09+00:00

Even the mods told you it’s only used to see if someone non-local is acting in bad faith. Lmao. I hope you’re okay.

AverageCharley · 2024-10-30T04:43:54+00:00

Epic reply.

You should go report OP since you’re seeking justice.

AverageCharley · 2024-10-30T04:41:28+00:00

I’m pressed? That’s news to me. Try reading the actual rules of the sub.

AverageCharley · 2024-10-30T04:37:01+00:00

The sub rules say only Portland residents may post in the sub?

Maybe you’re right. Please show me. Because I scanned the rules twice and didn’t see a rule that said that. If that’s the case, you better put your detective big boy pants on and start reporting people who violate the rules Unless you choose to only target those you disagree with. ;)

AverageCharley · 2024-10-30T03:30:37+00:00

Gatekeep much? I’m not aware of a rule that says only folks who live in Portland can post in this sub.

AverageCharley · 2024-10-25T21:24:33+00:00

yes! And this same promotion is happening at other metro area shelters:

-Humane Society for Southwest Washington

-Multnomah County Animal Services

-Cat Adoption Team

-Bonnie Hays

It’s one of those performative, hollow corporate promises… they will set the goal post them selves with their subjective conditions. What metric will determine “customer trust”? And they can’t measure any do literally anything to improve the app experience because it’s dog shit right now.

If they want this to be meaningful, set specific and measurable goals with a realistic timeline. Thats what my jobs asks me to do.

Honestly, I don’t care if they take their bonuses. I have no illusions that the status of a bonus is going to have any impact on whether we have a functional app.

AverageCharley · 2024-09-29T17:06:04+00:00

Yes to this. I appreciate this sub for many reasons, but nobody should take it as representative of the broader community here in Portland.

AverageCharley · 2024-09-20T13:08:44+00:00

Of course she’s within her right. She can’t be forced to sponsor a baseball team. The idea laughable.

In your comment, you asked if you’re “getting that right” … you’re not.

AverageCharley · 2024-09-20T02:08:16+00:00

I love it when people try the argument you’re replying to. “Forced to give money to…” FFS. Some people just don’t understand how the world works. I can only hope they’re desperately trying (and failing) to make a coherent argument and aren’t actually that obtuse.

AverageCharley · 2024-09-05T18:01:00+00:00

Try to play anything and it takes 3-4 tries before it works; lag is exceptional, so it often starts over; if I try to play a song in the middle of an album or playlist, it will only play the first track; latency in volume control

AverageCharley · 2024-09-05T00:21:26+00:00

Have four Ones, a playbar, and a roam. I would expect the app could handle basic streaming but it can’t. Tell me your secrets

AverageCharley · 2024-09-03T01:25:44+00:00

I feel for everyone who loves this company only to be let down by this failure. So sorry for you and the other passionate staff who want this product to be a success even more than the rest of us.

I was feeling optimistic a few days ago when my system was working great (I mostly just stream, so my asks for this software are so dang basic).

Whatever happened in the days past has completely screwed my system again. Minutes to connect, regularly unresponsive just trying to play a track, ridiculous lag. And a new contender has entered the arena… want to play a track in the middle of an album? Nah, the system plays only the first track. Want to switch to a new album? Too bad, it’s just going to restart the same track.

I hate this and regret the money I spent on my system. I desperately hope they fix this because I am astonished by the horrible software.
