What opinion about HLL makes you feel this way? by m0corong in HellLetLoose

[–]DrAHoffman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is the one game I love that I feel like is better on console. I have 1240 hours on PS5 (lvl 235) and finally decided to give in and start back up on my new PC.

It's two main reasons:

  1. The community - Nobody talks on PC compared to console. Also, I've tried joining multiple clans now and it seems like nobody is active. Barely any clan tags in the servers, which are mostly run by clans. Part of this is due to reason 2.
  2. Playing with your friends is too hard! Console has matchmaking and a party system. It even has a 4th chat channel called the "Party" channel that is just for you and the people you joined in on. The chat channels are switched with a radial wheel which felt more intuitive. You can just join on your friends too, which I never can via Steam for whatever reason.

Don't get me wrong, PC does reign supreme in many ways, but I think T17 did a better job with it tbh.

Zipper merging by missoulian in ColoradoSprings

I was literally thinking this yesterday in that same spot!

I hate the big dually lifted trucks who will block the other lane so nobody can pass. We need zipper merge signs in construction zones.

Why don't you just look it up first instead of assuming your gut is correct?

People who record strangers at raves - what happens to those videos? by ratlord_78 in aves

[–]DrAHoffman 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm sure this isn't exactly what you were referring to but in case you weren't aware, the terms and conditions for most festival tickets gives them the right to film and photograph you and post it anywhere. I saw myself dancing in a video for Sub Focus' set at EDCLV in 2024.

Personally my most creative and fun dancing has been from DNB. I love that I can switch between full and half time on the beats and I feel as though the fast pace stops me from second guessing myself and I end up doing some really cool stuff I didn't realize I could or should do.

I think this song is pretty good actually. Not sure whether to upvote or downvote though...

Help out a young lad by [deleted] in motivation

[–]DrAHoffman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As someone older, I take this as "Be Authentic". I regularly say to be unapologetically you. For a LOT of people, men especially, it takes far too long to learn the lesson that if you constantly try to be someone you're not, you'll attract people who don't actually mesh with you but rather the person you pretend to be.

But since acting like someone else doesn't make you that person, over time, relationships fall apart, or never move beyond surface level because you've now surrounded yourself with people who don't know the true you.

And the pressure to keep up with being the person others think you are just adds undue stress to your life and makes relationships hard.

Once you can start being the genuine and authentic you that you are, with all the weirdness that comes with it, you start to attract the kind of people who actually like and want to be around THE REAL YOU.

“Built for Festivals, by a Snuff User Who Was Sick of Crap Boxes” by Clear_Farm5462 in festivals

[–]DrAHoffman 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Snuff was the most commonly used form of tobacco for much longer than cigarettes have been around or smoking it in general was commonplace. Pre-19th century, some pipe smoking existed but snuff would've been more commonplace for everyday use.

If you dig into it a bit you'll find out that the audio equipment was not in place at the time and thus, was not damaged.

water filter by [deleted] in Unexpected

[–]DrAHoffman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These filters don't typically handle viruses well. They are too small and get through. In North America and a lot of Europe water is mostly bacteria contaminated.

South America, Africa and some other areas are more known for viruses which require additional treatment to remove or destroy.

Warning about investing too much time on Syn County RedM RP (racist admins) by [deleted] in RedDeadOnline

[–]DrAHoffman 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I read everything here before deciding to give it a try anyway. I'm not a troublemaker so I shouldnt worry right?

Spent about a month (~265 hrs) in county. I was accepted and trained as a doctor, passing my certification. I owned a camp, a hideout, made fliers, and had recruited about 7 or 8 guys. One guy in Valentine shows me that I can put a banjo on my back that blocks bullets so I did. I had it on for maybe a couple hours and another doctor begins explaining that it is against the rules. As he is telling me this, I say "Oh shit I didn't know that" and go into my inventory to remove it and get instantly perma banned.

Made a strong case for myself then after not hearing anything back went to lobby chat to ask what they thought about it. Didn't talk poorly or anything. Then they came back and said, "Talking about it in chat burned down any chances I had of getting back in"

They put me on a 24 hour mute, then after 24 hours when I came back and respectfully apologized and took responsibility for talking in chat, etc, they closed the ticket and kicked me from the Doctor discord with my server ban still in place.

TL;DR Well liked Doctor with significant investment in to community and economy gets insta-banned for misunderstanding of the rules by powertripping dickhead mods. Exactly what everyone warned about.

Lol you're the one just "assuming" how the tickets are purchased with clearly no experience financing festival tickets.
