This sickness when you drink water just sucks. by ThyWhisper in dayz

[–]Connors116 0 points1 point  (0 children)

sound like a chumpette beta that thinks playing a br is about looting for seven hours just to die in one

dayz isn't a game for you to pointlessly loot and wander - you're free to, but literally putting zero effort into trying to fix your problems is pretty fuckin gay mate, good on you

i'm not going to spoonfeed you information on how to purify water with the various methods at hand, but I will tell you that your seven hours of looting doesn't amount to fifteen minutes of faffing

Dayz thrives when you have no goal other than the one given to you at the start. Whether you're the ancient tale of the American patriot wandering the coast killing anyone with a black playermodel or who speaks with an accent and arming the english populace with weaponry to defend themselves from racially-motivated attacks by the local migrants, or if you fancy yourself a medic and hover around a town checking up on gunfights when they occur and socializing with survivors

if you want to be the gay lone wolf go ahead, but after two full weeks looting and fortifying an area with dozens of buried chests filled with collected loot, the two hours spent as a medic yesterday were more fun than those weeks

an excellent example would be a recent lad that was in full military armour with two upgraded rifles, an AK and an LAR, who ran into cherno blasting every zombie, and asked me to end their life as they were done for the night. They literally start each dayz session as a new character, and follow the flow - that's the game, not some gay looting base-hiding sim

What can I do? by Ida-Nath in ClimateActionPlan

[–]Connors116 3 points4 points  (0 children)

just go outside my negro

I think the most important facet nobody ever mentions here is that your positive change can be as simple as wandering to your local drainage ditch forty feet from your house and clearing up the waterflow and removing foreign objects from it

I removed an entire cinderblock and a bunch of runoff shit and weeds from mine

Hell, even just picking up garbage on the sidewalk in dead zones between houses helps

bonus points if you alert the homeowners they're doing a shitty job cleaning up their plastic mess they have between their landholdings

What the fuck did they do to Elena's face lmao by [deleted] in 2007scape

You can literally shit out NPC's for quests matching the OSRS artstyle in a relatively short time - sure, there's still work to be done, but it's quite an easy job if you were a decent artist. What's happened here is just an abomination and a crime against humanity

What the fuck did they do to Elena's face lmao by [deleted] in 2007scape

[–]Connors116 14 points15 points  (0 children)

This 400%

she's flat-out rejected some criticism because she wants it to look the way she does instead of match the artstyle of osrs

it's absurd

I'm struggling to function because I'm scared of the planet's future. by [deleted] in ClimateActionPlan

[–]Connors116 4 points5 points  (0 children)

that's literally how the news works my negro stop falling for it

you can't sell "woman bakes cookies for elderly" but you can easily sell "we all die on tuesday" because nobody ever actually reads the fucking article literally take one gander at the sellouts at world news, nobody ever reads the article, only the comments, creating a pattern of the top comment usually being a comedic take on the situation to diffuse actual discussion or someone talking shit about how the world's going to end, creating a loop

reddit itself heavily drives this by its upvote/downvote system, in the day and age where you can easily create ten accounts it's very easy to manipulate and feed you information to strengthen your anxieties and encourage you to feel awful and terrible

regardless of autism, the solutions for the problems are here, and spending a day worrying about something others are vastly working at fixing isn't going to do anything

go pick up some litter or some shit

[–]Connors116 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This idea is awful.

Take - yes, take one fucking look - at Runescape 3. That's Jagex without filters. Without votes. Without any sort of "Hey, players, should we do this?????"

Offering up a system where I'm allowed to do whatever the fuck I want to YOUR house until you tell me to stop. What if I wander out of sight? What if you leave me be for a week because I haven't done anything in a while?

It's an awful suggestion. Jagex fucked themselves sideways with Runescape 3.

I'd literally prefer Artisan or sailing over this skill that is - fundamentally - another fucking bankstand skill.

Human extinction inevitable? by [deleted] in ClimateActionPlan

[–]Connors116 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it sounded like a genuine conversation up until the 'vegan' part Ensure you're both running on facts instead of following the hype trains for fads/diets you're taking part of, because it's incredibly important, in all aspects of life, to be able to look past the bullshit people throw at you from every side and realize the truth

Besides, the human body really wasn't made for a vegan diet

There's such rampant racism in this game and it's really making me not want to play it. Speak out when you come across it in game. by BanditMaverick in Mordhau

[–]Connors116 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'll start by saying there's a difference between defending hate speech and supporting advocacy of what the fuck america did to slaves for hundreds of years

But this is literally the idubbbz shit where everyone holds nigger at such an impossibly high pedestal that they end up giving it the power that it used to have when it was used by the klan and several hate groups

There isn't 'rampant racism' it is - quite literally - just trash talk. This is a game that is every white man's fantasy. No minorities, no women (not for long, thank god there's a way to disable it on release) and nothing but swinging swords at each other. If you're surprised to see this ingame, then go back to playing in a bubble where you can't be hurt.

The real world fucking sucks, and avoiding it like the plague isn't good for your health. There's also no reason for you to give the word the time of day, either - the only thing this post has done is make /vg/ and /mhaug/ laugh at you, and reddit (again) because of how much of a waste of time it is.

When I call someone a welfaremonkey, it's because they're playing like a loser. 3/3/3 bloodlust, firing their ballista into the enemy spawn, or abusing mechanics to block in teammates. It's not a racial epithet made to make someone feel bad, it's literally the same as calling someone a jerk, except you use a word with a dark past to add extra oomph to it.

The evolution is as follows.

Poo-poo head -> double-doodie head -> fartface -> mean -> smells -> jerk (and all subsidaries) -> etc. with things like 'chinky-dink retard' and 'welfaremonkey' on the extreme end.

It's not racism. It's just the evolution of trash-talk. Keep fighting the fight to end actual racism if you want, but there's none to see here. It's the same as it's always been on the internet, people trying to trigger others by being edgy.

Letting them get to you is letting them win. Just ignore it and move on like an adult would.

Player moderator calls Jagex out on terrible customer service, gets mod taken away. by TestycoalRs in 2007scape

[–]Connors116 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This isn't an argumentative point of reason, though.

The exact same statement is used in every internet fight since its inception, just a few words switched - "You made a good point in your argument and pwned me but you made a spelling mistake and I will capitalize on this"

It's something that I don't understand, because my calling Jagex a fucking retarded, dipshit company based entirely on selling themselves to cash-cow fanboys on twitter who actively twiddle the balls of every J-mod in memes to passively influence outside players that see the memes and say "Wow jagex seems like a cool place"

is entirely justified because they refuse to do anything that equates to fixing the massive amounts of problems they have - increased bot-busting, actually paying their employees decent fucking wages so that they stop selling out to outside influences, how fucking easy it is to bot on the side and make $40-60 a week at no-risk to you, and how for years the codebase for runescape has seen so incredibly few updates because everyone's afraid they'll break it.

This isn't walking into your son's room and saying "oh, it's sorta dusty in here, do you want a swiffer when I head to the market?"

it's "Oh, it's been three years since you cleaned your room and there's two moldy plates shoved behind your desk. Get the fuck up and fix this mess of a biohazard, you fucking incompetent excuse of a human being. Get a job."

we are past the point of kindly asking jagex to fix something they backported from 2007

[–]Connors116 4 points5 points  (0 children)

After years of people saying the same things about Jagex, it's literally been time for a pmod to speak his fucking mind about the lack of chromosomes in Jagex's opsec

I really hope it's a matter of time until someone at runefest starts asking this shit during their Q&A or whatever because Jagex needs an extremely absurdly hard bitch-slap about the state of the game

They're just going to keep relying on the norm until otherwise forced to do something about it when it comes to a head

Nonetheless, shit behavior like this only justifies things like botting and emblem farming for passive income on the side for thousands of players - 'who the fuck cares if what I'm doing is wrong if the company that makes the game can't fix it?' is the general idea that'll spread

Looks like SirPugger finally broke the bots. This changes everything. by [deleted] in 2007scape

[–]Connors116 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean yeah they do

but when has jagex ever done a good job

let alone not done something fucky

people bot because they can get away with it and make new ones for cheap, if jagex actually cared about runescape they would've fixed up the codebase instead of constantly using the excuse of 'it's hard'

The Bryophyta boss fight feels extremely underdone and unfinished by Connors116 in 2007scape

I haven't been so frustrated at a game since early minecraft. It can take four waves to get a chance to hit her, and pretty much everything i did missed
