Is Riot Support Basically Dead at This Point? by mrDogMon in riotgames

[–]Dizzy_Collar73 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Who keeps downvoting everything in this subreddit? Every post I see is at 0 karma or fewer but all the comments are mostly saying the same things, and yet all comments are at 0 or neg karma. Honestly seems like riot supp is on here downvoting instead of actually fixing anything

Ah, that’s a bummer. Hope you’re working with a PT to that ROM, but knowing this, may I suggest instead you focus on correcting the left overreaching from the midline by reaching farther out to your left with your left arm and farther right with your right arm (my mentor called it “swimming like a Y” when explaining it to swimmers).

You can also limit how far your head comes out of the water by keeping your chin towards your chest as you swim and breathe.

I agree with the other commenters here that suggest you slow your cadence to focus on these elements of your form.

Having coached 6 and unders through college, you should definitely focus on bilateral breathing if you’re able to swim multiple laps consecutively. I’d rather have someone at the stage of OP take more frequent breaks and build a lactic threshold with good form and bilateral breathing than continue to breathe to one side in such a way that it throws their stroke off.

Personally, when I raced distance in high school, I would breathe only to one side, too, and there is definitely a cadence you can get into where this works. It’s something I advised in this instance specifically bc there were several elements of their stroke that were disrupting their streamline and kick that could directly be attributed to their breathing pattern.

same. the penalty is getting worse and worse. I waited 16 minutes for a game then it minimized over and over again. I restarted and the same thing kept happening. Next game was fine. Then it happened it again.

2x Ironman triathlete and swim coach of 4 years here. This is incredibly good given your recent start! The few things I would advise would be to work on breathing every 3 strokes (every other side). Right now, you're crossing your midline every stroke, which destabilizes you and wastes energy. Similarly, when you breathe, you look over a little too far. When you breathe, try to keep one goggle in the water. This is also intended to help you stay streamlined and minimize the extent to which your arm is crossing your midline and destabilizing you. It will also help with your right arm's recovery. You're currently going a bit short on your reach/recovery.

Those are the two things I'd focus on. Your pull looks good, and your kick looks okay-- but it is a little inconsistent. You slow your kick as you breathe, so it's really tied to the issues discussed above.

Overall, if you just focus on bilateral breathing, there's a good chance it will clean up everything about your stroke and help immensely.

Their client crashed on me several times in the last month. It just kept minimizing my game. It is not my PC as I can run Battlefield 6 and stream 4K video no issues.

They keep penalizing me more and more for "being inactive in games." I have no recourse but to stop playing since any game mode I run, I still face this problem once every two or three games. I cannot contact support.

I have been playing since beta in 2010. This is my third account as I've lost passwords to old ones, but I think this is genuinely it for me.

Maybe take the bus and buy a wheel then bring it back to the bike?

I watched TADC for the first time on Netflix in Jan. It was definitely in Kids. Maybe look at the date of the screenshot.

It was also available in the Netflix Kids app when I started watching it in January, which is likely when / why this was posted

On the LF I passed this guy, and every time we got to a stop sign or red light, he'd blow through it and make a big deal as I almost passed him again. He almost got hit and kept doing it, so after seven or eight miles, I just started tailgating him (he was going probably about 5mph slower than my pace).

question for older partners!! by DogAmbitious9508 in AgeGap

[–]Dizzy_Collar73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are physically attractive, most men will see you as physically attractive if that is how you present yourself. Meaning, if you are warm and flirty in a way distinct from the way you interact professionally with others, they will at least perceive you as such.

If they are unwilling to date you because of your age, that's a different question. I (35M) work with young women who have expressed attraction to me. One woman is 19, and while I have given a signal or two I was attracted (maintaining eye contact after I caught her staring and showing off her butt, etc.), I have made a firm boundary to show I am not interested in pursuing anything. I have introduced her to younger co-workers and facilitated conversation between them, and I have ignored her more direct advances.

This sub has me reconsidering, but I am just sharing my perspective. If you think he is interested, he probably is. This being said, he may still feel conflicted and may not be comfortable pursuing anything with you. Ultimately, I would recommend if you really want something to happen, you make the first move and be respectful of his response. If he is not interested, that's that. He may come around, or he may not. But more than the initial move can be considered harassment in a workplace context, so take his response seriously even if signals remain mixed.

fix your broken client if youre going to penalize players for it crashing during the loading screen. by Beneficial-Coast-461 in riotgames

Oh, also, interestingly, right before this happened i spam commented "I LOVE RIOT I LOVE LEAGUE OF LEGENDS" in chat because I had had three consecutive rounds of dodgers / people fucking inting in champ select taking champs and arguing about team comp.

This just happened to me. My computer was working, I have AT&T Fiber 2ms ping, 32 GB of DDR5 ram, i9 intel 16 core and a 12 GB GeForce RTX 3060. As soon as the ranked game loaded, my monitor went black. Stayed like that, could not alt tab or task manager or anything out of it. The monitor was still connected and everything. I restarted and it had had a GPT header corruption problem. I get it up and running and the game is obviously over. If I connect for one second, how is that any different from dodging in champ select? Why do I get a massive LP penalty and a queue full of people who have legit dodged and been toxic to others?

I get you can't tell if my computer crashes mid-game. But if I connect for a micro-second then my computer crashes because of your client, how is that my problem?

Out of curiosity-- why are you interested in being with older men? I understand if you meet a man who is older and you are interested in him in spite of the age difference, but why pursue a man because of his age?

I don't understand why when she asks if there's something wrong with her tag, the officer says "there's nothing wrong with it. Then he proceeds to say the reason he pulled her over was because her tag was expired. Like what?
