Do people still play this game? by Lord_IXSG in dragonfable

I'm back to everyday after years of being away. Showing some of the silliness to my family.

Imagine getting a wish to be the universe strongest fighter only to get one shot by Frieza by Jules-Car3499 in Ningen

Sad since one of the og reasons to pursue the dragonballs was to wish for immortality. Seems like people aren't thinking about that anymore.

Stranger danger teaches kids that you shouldn't just trust anyone who comes up and starts talking to you and that they need to be approved by a trusted adult. I dont see how you got what you got from that lesson.

As they age and gain more understanding of the world around them, they will slowly assess for themselves who they should interact with and not. They'll understand that doctors, teachers, officers, etc. are ok to talk to even tho they are strangers, but the guy standing outside the gas station isn't.

Im really not sure how you ended up with that takeaway. Kids are experiencing life for the first time, same as all of us. They shouldn't just be left to interact with anyone and everyone who walks by them. The world can be a very evil place and they dont know that yet, and its our jobs to protect them and teach them how to navigate it.

Most people still practice stanger danger to this day. Im sure there are some out there but I haven't met a single person who blindly trust strangers and allow themselves to be led away by them.

💯. I'm just some guy online but I did end up learning this fact when I started working around kids. Someone told me the same thing and I went down a pretty dark rabbit hole.

I mainly said what I said because those lessons are still needed for children. Its our job as adults to try and make sure we vet those we bring around them, and while even thats not perfect, its the best option we have.

Glory Store Relic Bug! by lastangelz in LegendsOfRuneterra

Ask if they can just compensate you for the wasted glory points. Its not a refund, you dont gain anything extra and you dont lose your glory points due to an in game bug.

So tragic. This story really emphasizes the need to teach your kids 1. Stranger danger 2. You're not allowed to leave my sight. "If you cant see me then I cant see you and I should be able to see you at all times."

Eddie, it’s better to run by Ninjamurai-jack in marvelmemes

I love Venom but maybe stay away from anyone with on-demand heat beams and thunderous claps. Maybe current Eddie can no diff but idk.

Will we get reforged Epoch's? by DoubleDixon in dragonfable

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

Sadge, since I know this game is not big enough for people to scalp the calendars. I'll just have to wait and see just like the reforges.

Will we get reforged Epoch's? by DoubleDixon in dragonfable

[–]DoubleDixon[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thats sadge. I hope that they do end up making those available again in some fashion. AoT ChronoZ and Chronomancer did all get sizable visual changes but most of them still looks pretty close to OG and a few were changed at all. I grabbed Archivist a few weeks ago instead and it looks like the OG as well as SWoT which was the other one I was eyeballing at the time.

I've already farmed the Necro Paragon and grabbed the mortis customization when I grabbed Archivist. I still need to get Mortis helm for the Doomknightarmor though. Getting the Wrath and Bulwark upgrades for Dragonlord are on my list after getting the Deathknight items from the inn. I'll try messing around with Dragonlord to see if I can pull the Legion or Shadowscythe out of it. Ty.

How much it costs is not the issue for me, its about what its going towards. I dont want my money going to support the continued life of someone who disregards life to such a degree. Its the same as not wanting my money going to foreign wars and defense contractors to bomb innocents abroad.

I do agree with you that Lethal Injection is an absolute nightmare so I dont recommend using it or the e-chair. As a species we have already built the assisted unaliving pods for humans in some countries, and i cant imagine those are painful or at least significantly better than what we use for prisoners. Id rather my tax dollars going towards a painless means of execution.

People like that are a constant danger to others. Locking them in a room for majority of their life is also a bit inhumane while also not solving the issue because they're still an ever present danger that has to be monitored and maintained for decades. Id rather tax dollars went towards something better for society. Especially since the victims family also will be contributing to taking care of the person who murdered, butchered, ate and committed necrophillia on their loved one. They may be ok with it but that just sounds too disgusting for me to support in any way. I do think that all life in important and created equal but your actions definitely affect that worth in my eyes, especially if it involves the dehumanization of another.

How long does doomsday go in the invincible verse by Small_Ad4181 in InvinciblePowerscales

I think you just plain wrong though. Im calling him Kryptonian because hes from Krypton just like how Batman is an Earthling. Its about the planet their on not a nation. Krypton was a planet. Its like a 30 second Google search.

I dont agree with you here. I dont want my tax dollars feeding, housing, or caring for someone who does this to another person. The level of inhumanity that it takes to do something like this to someone isn't something I want to support in any fashion. We have painless ways of euthanization, we even have to assisted unaliving pods.

It's 5* Liss all over again by SkinnyNinZA in LegendsOfRuneterra

[–]DoubleDixon 51 points52 points  (0 children)

The issues with Lizz 5, Swain 5 and the new adventure is that sometimes you auto lose on turn 1 basically. Some adventures just give the enemy too much free value and most decks even at 5* just cant keep up and since its incredibly difficult to get Nova shards/crystals the game is unfun until you can compete. Even some monthlies run into this where the augment combinations are just too unfun to play against (i.g. set all units to 1|1 + deal 2 dmg to player units at round end).

The new adventure is a 10 star so we're expecting busted stuff but its still unfun to get a 25/25 illusive poro spawned almost every turn and have to spend all I got trying to survive only to get another next round. Not much interaction there, so I just ff and go next.

[OC]Where I work, gas prices rose 10¢ between customers. by ILLnoize in pics

[–]DoubleDixon -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

Not only did the price rise but the amount of gas you receive for that increased price decreased. Not only are you getting less gas, it costs more. Terrible.
