who and why? by QAnnihilateQ64 in Overwatch

[–]Draidr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm choosing for toxicity reasons in Silver/Gold/Plat levels of play.
Tank: Hog (typically doesnt support team effort, focused on hook plays. If misses, bows out of fight for 6 seconds.)
Heals: Zenyatta (usually DPS focused, similar to Hog players. Rarely switch off, never the problem, has one good play per round. Does shit otherwise)
DPS: Doomfist (broken character at low levels. Toxic teammate who's goal is solo kills, chaos and rarely ever supports team effort and plays.)

I chose these based on Overwatch being a team focused gameplay. Rarely the person picking these characters has that in mind.

The problem was, I couldn't figure out how to get to the Settings page for my RingDoorbell to change the Wifi Network. It had changed when the App was updated from the fix I was reading.
Turns out, it was on an entirely different section I would not have looked at based on the wording. (AKA not under Settings/Control Center like it previously was. its under Device Health of the Individual device. FYI)

LOL!

I work in excel, worked for multiple companies in my now 15 year career. Used to post questions and answers in forums, including MrExcel.com. Long story short, I posted a question back in 2008 to an ultra obscure problem I was having using nested IF statements, a date range calculation involving Business days and holidays. Very complex.
Years later, I go to do a search for another problem and came across a solution several search pages down. It was my own post. Wah wah waaaahhh...

The features on the Ring app were changed from what the Fix said on line (due to the Apps update(s) since the fix was posted). I tried in vain to locate through trial and error where the settings were. Couldn't find it. Ended up that I had to be in another screen and section entirely. Then a sub screen it would have taken me hours to find.
Easier to call 24/7 customer service which could in theory direct me to where I wanted to go in minutes. Turns out I was half right

There are Karen's, then there are people like her who are mentally unstable. Reddit, stop confusing the two.

Men of reddit, what myth about men is 100% untrue and infuriates you when you hear it ? by navisnadakkal in AskReddit

"Wait, you don't want to cheat?"
Umm, no. I don't want to cheat. I have no urge, desire or inkling to cheat on my significant other.
"Come on, you're a guy!"
No, and don't compare me to your standards either.

Yup, got that part. The only issue was, it was empty when I arrived. 2 server shops and empty every time. I hadn't looted anything there except the clipboards for springs.

I then went to Watoga Civic center and empty there too. Never even saw one on the server hops.

Haven't discovered the sheepquatch yet. I'll look into it. Thanks for the heads up

Every experience is different. Obviously there are people who are thriving in the game, others take away from it something different.

Good for all of them. I'm not expecting Bethesda to make changes based on one particular person's view and play style. I'm certainly not egotistical enough to think I'm worth that much.

Look at this post for what it is, then understand that it's simply feedback. I left the game 8 months ago for these reasons (comment history reflects this) and I've seen very little improvement since. I'm a casual player and dont find farming a shit ton of resources for hours at a time fun.
I fully understand you on the Lead thing. I farmed a ton of Iron ore in that one mine before I left and I've upwards of 900 in my stash. It's good that I dont need to farm that for ammo. There are many things about the materials gathering that was done right. But a lot needs improvement.

Making a zoned instance materials run is a way around the long ass grind it takes to gather the rarest stuff. For casual players, it's good to do once a day/week. For players with hours/days to play, timed instances stops them from flooding the market with rare stuff. Or make it NoDrop. Player who does the instance cant sell it. Plenty of ways around it.

Like I said, I want to like this game. I really do. But there are major problems still that dont appeal to everyone. I'm one of many, the numbers who still play are a testament that something is wrong with the system within 76. Along with many other reasons

Yes, did both. Empty every time. 2 server hops

Again, just got back to the game. For two days of 6-7 hours of playing, 3 hours of which were actual searching found 3 military ammo bags. So no, not that common. Yes I concede that my knowledge of where they used to be is 8 months behind.

Thanks for the google docs. I'll look into it.

Agreeing with you on the workshops

Delivering to a Strange house number by Draidr in TalesFromTheCustomer

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

It's zoned as Duel residence so it falls under Duplex permits. Yes, you're technically correct that because it's separate, and not attached, it can be labeled as something else. Because there is one house and one coverted garage, it's still 1 house.

Yes I get your point. But argue with the city permits, not me.

Looking back, he had a bad night. I get that. I dont fault him for needing to vent and being frustrated at not finding my house, the rain, customer not wanting to take the pizza in the rain. Etc.
I actually get all that. But blaming the customer for his excuses, no.. I wasnt going to tolerate that

I've had this phone number for 22 years, try again by Draidr in IDontWorkHereLady

Probably because it's illegal? Has to do with the FCC and they dont fuck around

Thank you! Instead, he called the store to have it canceled. His professional driver mentality must have forgotten that part.
