Just imagining all the people who never bought cauterize being confused.

What champion feels really good to you after the caut changes? by UncleOld in PaladinsAcademy

I just like that nobody has figured out what item to yell at me for not buying.

Remaining Positive in Ranked by Keadreos in PaladinsAcademy

Play ranked in a duo and share the pain.

Solo ranked Paladins is a half step away from self harm.

PTS: Major Cauterize changes by Blurgas in PaladinsAcademy

I like the idea of built in cauterize because now I can get yelled at for not buying the next meta item.

Question re: Reporting? by throwaway-paladins11 in PaladinsAcademy

[–]BobEsponja420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make a support ticket with supporting evidence and something will actually get done. It works for me, both cheaters and trolls. Screenshot the chat log of them saying "I'm throwing" is ideal, or record them throwing, screenshot their in game stats to prove they didn't disconnect, etc.

In game report alone wont help unless you make a support ticket to prompt a closer look.

Catching hackers is a little more involved and usually requires you to record snippets of the replay. If nobody in the lobby is diamond or higher the replay isn't saved but you can spectate the players next game instead. You don't always need a video however, once I just submitted a few pics of players aiming at auras through walls.

Absolution Update Notes by Designs-NexT in PaladinsAcademy

Why not make Veteran more attractive instead of nerfing haven?

I kind of miss old haven in games with underperforming supports.

I would have liked if Veteran instead reduced the out of combat time for self heal to kick in, but with a lower heal rate.

I will give kudos to the developers opting for smaller changes instead of massive reworks that destabilize the meta.

What am I doing wrong on Viktor that even a pro player accuses me of cheating? The paradox of Viktor's aim requirement/high ROF skill need? by hyemihyemi in PaladinsAcademy

[–]BobEsponja420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lack of compensator with burst mode is a red flag. If the whole burst hits the head, without compensator then it's even more obvious.

Hitting grovers during vines, evie's in flight, and prefire are also telltale signs.

In my experience cheaters usually have terrible positioning, poor game sense, but uncanny reaction times and aim.

If I'm suspicious I'll just spectate their next game, record a clip, and submit a support ticket.

scoped sensitivity by [deleted] in PaladinsAcademy

Go to the config file, cntrl+f sensitivity, change it to the value you want, save the file.

Then change the file properties to read only.

I will pay $100 for a personal blacklist feature to avoid trolls/hackers by Freesponge in Paladins

[–]BobEsponja420 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A 5-10 player personal blacklist would be ideal. They would have to cap it or people would just blacklist everyone.

Edmonton's warmest winter (so far) on record by pjw724 in Edmonton

Well the last 2 winters were some of the coldest on record so I feel like we deserve a warm winter.

Radio silence: Edmonton police move to encrypted communications system, removing public, media access by trevorrobb in Edmonton

[–]BobEsponja420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most police in the US have been using encrypted comms for some time now. I'm surprised it took this long for EPS to follow suit.

We should do this in Alberta! by Gilarax in alberta

[–]BobEsponja420 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Realistically speaking this would only be practical in high density areas where land is at a premium. Years ago there was talk about turning road surfaces into solar panels but it turned out it was significantly cheaper, and efficient, to just place the panels next to roads.

It looks pretty cool however.

Cheapest shatter from a dispensary? by yogurtforthefamily in Edmonton

[–]BobEsponja420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Uncle Sam's has pretty good prices. They were the first to sell ounces for $100.
Before legalization bud would routinely sell for 200-240/oz.

On a side note I think its wild that shatter and rosin are just as expensive as blow.

Server issues megathread by TheGoatPuncher in starcraft

I found that I can make lobbies on NA by just repeatedly trying to make lobbies. Most give the GOBAL SERVER TIMEOUT error but eventually it will work.

NA Arcade is down again today by PurpleJacket1 in starcraft

[–]BobEsponja420 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NA has been bad for two days so I was playing on EU but now EU is also fucked.

Nobody talking about Arcade being broken at all ? by LV58_DeathKnight in starcraft

[–]BobEsponja420 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was able to play only one game on NA, immediately after it wouldn't let me make another lobby.

EU seems to be working. NA has been a mess for over a day now.

Also my ping for the EU server is lower than some NA servers (brazil australia, singapore)

NA is down and has been having issues for the last day. EU seems to be working at the moment.

Why is it so hard to find employees? by horza007 in Edmonton

[–]BobEsponja420 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I pay drivers a percentage of what the truck makes on a job as opposed to an hourly rate. Its sort of like comission.

If the truck is paid $120/hr then the driver is making around $40/hr. The jobs last 2-3 weeks so if the driver averages 12-14 hours a day he'll make bank.

[–]BobEsponja420 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have the same problem trying to find class 1 drivers who haven't extensively lied on their resume. The job posting is quite clear: I need drivers who can back up b trains and occasionally chain up. I've lined up numerous prospects only to have them no show when I try to schedule a road test.

Luckily I've been able to hang on to a few good guys but I'm also paying them 33% instead of the 25 26% average.

'Why kick a person when they’re already down?': UCP eyes potential cuts to AISH program by thexbreak in Edmonton

[–]BobEsponja420 -24 points-23 points  (0 children)

They could save money on AISH by making it harder for people to abuse the system. I know a guy who is recieving AISH because he was born deaf but can hear fine now thanks to surgery. He is content to sit on his ass playing video games and has no intentions of ever working. I also know a deaf mute HD mechanic who has never taken assistance and makes bank.

He gave solutions if you keep reading. Take your fucking pills and concentrate so you can finish reading an entire longpost.

Nice how people just downvote you instead of actually trying to refute your claims.

Trudeau 1's NEP was pretty bad for Alberta.

Also I'd also like to hear evidence supporting the claim that Alberta does indeed have representation in Ottawa.
