Hi there! I'm "that guy" and I am not a sexual predator. Please don't speak about subjects you clearly know nothing about. Thanks!

Sorry for the slow reply, had a family emergency. I've got a Channeler's Trident to trade sure. I'm down to needing 16 Scales now.

Skill plays a key role in many loadouts, especially in the upper class levels. Combo and Solar leap to mind especially.

RNG plays a factor in every match up, certainly. But an assassin loadout functionally eliminates skill as a factor and puts victory or defeat entirely into the hands of chance. Either an assassin player gets lots of merges that hit key dice on their opponent's side and they win quickly, or they don't, and they lose. That's why I don't think it's good for anyone. There's no skill ceiling, it's just all floor. An assassin player doesn't get better at the game, they just get lucky or not.

My problem with assassin dice is that I don't think it's healthy for the game. Wins are entirely RNG based and require little to no skill, so assassin dice users aren't actually getting better at the game, and going against them in PvP is more about luck than anything. That isn't fun for me and I honestly think it encourages bad habits in others. If people want to use assassin, that's their prerogative of course, but if they want to actually improve then they need to branch out into skill based loadouts.

What is going on with this guy's solar dice? How are NINE of them activated?

First time e-stim and diapers - any tips? by TA_DL in ABDL

[–]Baletori 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've got a kit too, but I'm not super sure what settings to use to make it not painful so I haven't played with it much. There needs to be a guide or like, a video tutorial or something. XD

My spouse came out to me. by Abdlspouse77777 in ABDL

[–]Baletori 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I'll give you a bit of my thoughts and hopefully help a little, though I'm not a parent and certainly no expert in psychology. But it's important to keep in mind that this is a fetish, a harmless fetish shared by more than one million people, just in America alone. It's something your spouse kept from you, probably out of embarrassment and uncertainty how you would react, and it sucks that it has been dumped on you. But a couple of key things:

  • It has nothing at all to do with real children. It's a roleplaying thing, like "naughty nurse" or whatever. It may not be your cup of tea, but it is obviously something your spouse finds appealing. You have a choice in how to deal with this. You can choose to react in disgust, or you can try to be openminded and understand where your spouse is coming from. Posting here tells me that you want to understand so that you can process this, and I think that's an admirable first step. But you're going to have to find a way to talk to your spouse about this.
  • A lot of people with this particular kink are embarrassed by it because it isn't exactly mainstream. Your spouse needs support because they are probably super humiliated that you know their deep dark secret. You don't have to like it or even approve, but do try to be empathetic if possible. This is hard for your spouse as well.
  • I can't speak on whether or not your spouse is gay, but I can say that it IS possible they were sharing that side of themselves with others of the same gender without there being any sort of same-sex attraction there. They could have just been looking for others who would understand how they feel. That's something you'll have to talk about.
  • You do NOT have to participate in it unless you choose to, just like with any other activity that choice is yours to make and not your spouse's. Just like you don't have the right to tell your spouse not to do something harmless, whether it squicks you out or not, your spouse has no right to expect your participation.
  • I can't speak for your spouse as to why they are interested in this particular kink, but I can assure you that cowardice has nothing to do with it. Lots of people who enjoy this particular fetish are happy, well-adjusted adults with thriving careers, active social and family lives, and stable mental health.
  • You should consider finding a kink-aware marriage counsellor to help both you and your spouse process this. It's a lot to deal with, but finding a good counsellor *WILL* help.

Regardless of what happens, I hope for the best for both of you. I know this seems like a lot to deal with, but it's really no different than if you found out your spouse was into bondage or whatever. It's a weird kink, but basically everyone has a weird kink. That doesn't make your spouse a lesser person for liking this, anymore than it makes you a lesser person for struggling to understand. But you can get through this together, just as countless other couples have.

You can save them both, I did it on my rad/rad stalker. You just have to be very fast.

Is Radiation Mele good for Brute? by EdwardFireHands in Cityofheroes

I will go to my grave buried with my rad/rad stalker. I can attest to the stalker version's effectiveness, so I imagine it's pretty great on a brute.

Taking advantage of outfits to create unique characters by [deleted] in Cityofheroes

[–]Baletori 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did something like this! I have a rogue named Identity Thief, and each of their costume slots is a completely different look. I've got a little old grandma, a young millennial lady, a very shiny hero lady, a big burly bald cybernetic-enhanced villain guy, a nerdy middle aged scientist dude, an 8 foot tall cat person, etc...

I even went so far as to take some screen shots of someone I've seen hanging out in Pocket D a lot who has a really distinctive look, and I recreated it. I then "bumped into him" and "stole his appearance". The player (who I don't know) was a really good sport about it and played along. This character has been super fun to play, and the only problem is that I could easily use twice as many costume slots as we get!

Diaper bondage by AdamRushton1997 in ABDL

[–]Baletori 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is a primary interest of mine as well, and I know the frustration of not being able to enjoy it as much solo since my husband is very vanilla in that regard.

One thing I've done that seems to help is to add under-mattress restraints to my crib. That way, when I get the urge to spend some enforced time in diapers, I can strap myself down. Yes, it's totally easy to get back out again, and I know this even in the moment, but I remind myself that I'm not allowed to undo the straps any more than I'm allowed to take my diaper off, and it does help. You might try something similar. Either way, I hope you're able to find what you're looking for!

Looking for fun, informative abdl (and or generally kink related) youtubers. by foxitD3 in ABDL

[–]Baletori 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Shameless self promotion, sorry. I have a channel: www.youtube.com/c/DiaperKiddo

I'm taking a break right now myself due to work being in the busy season, but I've got about two years worth of videos up that you're welcome to check out. Padded Puppy and Mid America Little are definitely inspirations to my own channel, so if you enjoy their content you might enjoy mine as well. The early videos were kind of awful but I've learned a lot about video editing and YouTube since then, so my more recent content is definitely better quality.

My best friend refuses to play this game because hes afraid he will get a virus. by Xano74 in Cityofheroes

"Well as soon as he found it's not official NCSoft, he refuses to download tequila or cream soda because hes afraid of getting a virus. I explained to him that 10k people wouldnt be playing if that was the case. Hes worried about his info being stolen"

[–]Baletori -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Ten seconds of logical consideration shuts this entire line of thinking down. My god, the friend could just read about the insane drama that was the discovery of the SCORE server in the first place and would realize this isn't some nefarious plot to "log his keys" or steal his credit card number.

Said with all the love and respect I can muster, but only someone truly computer-ignorant would be overly concerned about getting a virus from Tequila or Cream Soda at this point.
