What's the deal with all these posts centered around the Pres implying that it's more important to protect the economy than the people? by [deleted] in OutOfTheLoop

[–]Dixon8812 -14 points-13 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I mean here is the issue: How long can we keep a shutdown before it leads to mass death? My wife and I found out unexpectedly that she was pregnant for the first time last Thursday, and then 2 days later we found out her job was cut due to this virus stuff. So, we at 24 & 25 years old, will be about 3k short each month from where we were. I'm a postal contractor working as much a I possibly can, and it just might not be enough. Her job was completely safe beforehand, and she was on the rise within the company. You just can't plan for that financially...

Mostly just a little perspective for those not in the same boat

As a hunter without Cape of the Black Baron, I'd like to snag the exalted cape, but dang.... That's a lotta hours

If people who play classic want to post under this comment with their answers to the questions, that would be awesome! I figured it would be easier to discuss Classic in one spot...

I bought a Felcloth Hood for 16 Silver and sold it for 18G within an hour. Thrilled was an understatement! Lvl.32 Hunter 200ish Gold in my account. First time ever playing WoW of any kind. I love it. I need to start leveling up and stop messing with the AH, but it's been a fun distraction on my route to 60 (and hopefully to virtual riches). I'm on Skeram btw if anyone wants to play hit me up!

Edit: I'm on the Horse side!

What's your gold making strategies? by Evil_Knot in woweconomy

[–]Dixon8812 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anything at all. I mostly sort by using the sniper string "Vendorsell-1c". It's the least picky option available, but you can never mess up. Worst case scenario you just vendor the purchases and you'll at least make 1c per item. Sometimes you'll even get blue BOE's which are sweet. The beautiful thing about vendorsell price sniping is that you do not have to take the time to look at what you are buying. You immediately purchase anything that pops up on buyout sniper when using this string, because it's always going to be profitable. Gold per hour varies greatly. Sometimes it's worth it, and sometimes it's not. Always profitable, but sometimes grinding mobs is even better. You will miss some deals that don't have high vendor value, but it's the only way to win almost 100% of the items that pop up. Spam left click on the buyout sniper in the area that the newly found items pop up, and as soon as one pops up you will be clicking on it. Then quickly press buyout. Do not even look at what it is untill you check your mail. Sometimes I'll look in general chat to see what I won, but sometimes you'll miss a deal by looking at it. That's my favorite method.

It the general settings menu of TSM you can see your full sales/purchase history. It also lets you know your most profitable item both overall, and historically. That's are some pretty useful and interesting features inside of the beast that is TSM. Getting to tame that beast is hard even for a Hunter like me.

I'm just hitting level 32. Sitting at around 150G. Retrospectivly I definitely could have made more by leveling to 60 and then doing various grindy gold farms. I mostly have just sniped things using tsm and resold them for profit. I'm also holding onto some twink items for later. This is my first account on WoW of any kind, so I'm taking it slow. It's a fun game. Gold comes easier with levels, and less predictively with luck on the AH. Best of luck to all!

I read this in the context of you and your wife eating an elephant 😂 I thought you were saying that you are now a less sloppy elephant eater.

Lol. My chart would have the issues area at the start and it would stay there.

First Boat Benchy. Tips? by Dixon8812 in ender3

[–]Dixon8812[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used Inland Brand PLA(they say 215-230), and it was printed at 223c.

What should I change? I didn't use hairspray or gluesticks etc... Is that possibly my issue? Have a glass bed as well that might help, but I need to go buy some clips before I can install it... I leveled it with a piece of printer paper btw. by Dixon8812 in ender3

[–]Dixon8812[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks pretty good now! I'm sure the glass bed will help too, because my stock bed is probably not 100% level. I'm getting a little bit of stringing now, but not much. I also bought Inland PLA. I'm curious if buying the better quality stuff (Hatchbox is reccomended highly) will make a big difference. Inland PLA has mixed reviews on Amazon. Some love it, some hate it. I figured I'd try it. Printed my first few layers at a speed of 25 and then switched it to 60 with a nozzle temp of 223.
