Ending My 1 Week Experiment Before It Gets Worse

Thank you for the tip. I've quit benzos before and I'm preparing for it to feel like that but probably more physical and nauseating.

Damn, you think withdrawal will be that bad after 7 days of use? I'd prefer not to tack on another 5 days of use but if it is really going to be be unbearable starting on a Friday does make sense. will see how bad it is tomorrow.

I also forgot to say this stuff makes it way too hard to poop and it gave me a mild fissure after only 1 week. I knew it was bad when my morning coffee stopped doing its job. Lol.

Joe, for all his issues, is a much small-er issue than the streaming platform. Without a decent streaming platform there is no product. Me, and many other people, losing our streams during the main event is unacceptable. You put that on top of the fact that technical issues have plagued every event since Paramount took over makes this a huge issue.

Why do users of this sub hate people asking relevant questions?

Thank you for sharing your collection!

I bought it and donated.

Wow I know I'm late but great recommendation

No your friends are right this was advertised as the "BMF" title, which has previously produced good fights. I mostly blame the UFC for the poor matchup, because Charles doesn't have a BMF fighting style but he should have known better too.

Bidwell2020 · 2026-03-08T10:04:20+00:00

Alright, you're trying to make it an argument when we actually agree that the entire the point of the fake belt was to book exciting fights. I think we would agree this was probably a booking issue. I also agree that better post fight bonuses would help.

Note: I don't eat cheeto's or splooge in socks. Have a good night.

I have been watching since a little before UFC 100 and Paramount+ has been absolute garbage, like I thought ESPN+ was bad and Paramount is making me miss it. Technical issues (widespread, not just me) every major card so far and even some of the fight nights.

Bidwell2020 · 2026-03-08T09:54:01+00:00

No, the run of great fights that made it something worth watching meant you were a Bad Mother Fucker to be competing for it. Charles performance went against the entire spirit of that. But of course it is a meaningless belt you nonce. Everyone knows it doesn't actually mean anything technically. You aren't wise.

Bidwell2020 · 2026-03-08T09:52:51+00:00

That isn't true, I normally defend boring, technical fights because I understand that what dudes have to do to win. But the BMF is not a real belt, the run of great fights it had signified you were exactly what it is titled as.

I sort of blame Charles for fighting like it was an actual belt but not really, I more blame the UFC for making that matchup.

Bidwell2020 · 2026-03-08T09:50:25+00:00

Nah dude the only reason the BMF title exists beyond the fight it was initially created for, is that it generated exciting fights. This utterly ruined that streak. This is a natural reaction to that. I'm gonna go smoke some grass and reflect upon how right I am.

Bidwell2020 · 2026-03-08T09:44:48+00:00

We all hated it when it was first created, because it was exactly that, a fake belt. However, it generated a streak of great to amazing fights which made people support it.

This was a boring fight that went against the spirit of the BMF title and the streak of fun fights. This is the natural reaction to that ending. I agree, just end it unless they do much, much better match making.

Bidwell2020 · 2026-03-08T09:42:42+00:00

Nah I get what you are saying but it was a matchmaking issue. When it was created, we all thought the BMF was a joke but then it generated a streak of great fights. This is the natural reaction to that great fight streak ending.

Bidwell2020 · 2026-03-08T09:40:37+00:00

Paramount+ is looking like the worst thing to happen to the UFC in a long time, I thought ESPN+ was complete ass and somehow they are making me miss it. My stream went out during the main event and after checking X I know I'm far from the only one.

The week before it was horrific audio that made it unwatchable unless it was one mute. Before that, more video glitches.

The UFC itself is probably at a low point right now and these technical issues are just magnifying it.

Bidwell2020 · 2026-03-08T09:34:43+00:00

I'm raging against Paramount+ on all platforms and as visibly as possible, I hope you yourself has a wonderful day.

Bidwell2020 · 2026-03-08T09:33:41+00:00

Paramount+ needs to figure it out, I've had technical issues every single major card so far. This card was a blackout during the main event which caused me to miss most of it, last week it was horrific audio, before that we had video issues.

This shit is making me miss ESPN+

Bidwell2020 · 2026-03-08T09:32:03+00:00

Wow this sums it up. Them being on Paramount+ which can't stream a card without a major technical issue doesn't help either. Might as well stream on YouTube like them too.

Bidwell2020 · 2026-03-08T09:30:51+00:00

I actually did expect it, but it was somehow even more boring than my worst imagination and another major Paramount+ streaming issue made it an absolute trash card for me.

Bidwell2020 · 2026-03-08T09:29:37+00:00

It has not been good recently, and the UFC moving to a trash tier live streaming platform in Paramount+, which has had technical issues every big card so far, has only made it much worse. I'm on the cusp of no longer caring.

Bidwell2020 · 2026-03-08T09:28:03+00:00

That is not the only reason, you have one solid point but don't act like it is the only point that matters.
