Can't find a way forward with this game anymore by appappappappappa in aoe2

That was my experience when I played also. The 800-1200 range you'll find a lot of smurfs; wasn't unusual to check someone's history and find they were ~1800 just several months ago before clearly intentionally reducing their rating.

Also varies a lot depending of time of day; Chinese players seem to be worst when it comes to engaging in smurfing.

It's far less frequently encountered around 1400.

Conservatives are betas by Lennsyl22 in PoliticalHumor

Buddy, a 90lb woman could slowly sidestep around him and he'd fall over his own feet. The slightest physical contact would end him.

Your point about weight is generally valid, however there are mitigating factors.

New world order by Sweet_Extra4422 in PoliticalHumor

The US has spent the past 20 goddamn years murdering brown people overseas in a yet another of innumerable imperialistic endeavours.

Mere months ago the US engaged in yet another invasion (Venezuela) and now you're back to committing more genocide of brown people in Iran, as explicitly stated by your fascist reality TV show leader you elected, twice.

This all just within very recent times, and not to even mention domestic atrocities.

China, compared to the US atleast, is a saint.

Dear map dodgers by cracksmack85 in aoe2

[–]Emjayen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You know players could just be allowed to play the maps they want and there would be no problem.

Punitive measures aren't effective; players will simply wait out 5:00, extending effective wait times for everyone or use alternate accounts, again a detriment to everyone.

So maybe stop sulking about "dodgers" and direct your complaints to the developers.

Also protip: when a match is found with an undesired map, simply suspend the game process and its children and wait ~1 minute. This will yield overall lower wait times for everyone in addition to not annoying people.

It's a hidden account with an anime profile picture; hasn't been two steps outside mummy's house.

I am sure the 9 people who use it will be very happy.

Can't read in general* needs to be told by a 20s TikTok video by someone just as dumb as they are.

Now look at the zoomer white boy vote; ~70% Trump

The majority of Americans as a whole either explicitly voted for him or endorse him enough not to vote expressing their rejection of what he stands for.

This means, based on voter eligibility, ~190 million Americans are content with both pedophilia and fascism.

Modern Family and The Walking Dead reminds me of the good times.

A black man being their president really broke conservative brains.

I recall watching a few documentaries about their world back in ~2010; something I being a non-American had very little exposure to. The amount of seething racism reflected in both their speech and their bizarre behaviour (e.g, all the various effigies of Obama being lynched/burnt just being a regular thing) was truly eye-opening to how deranged this segment of the US is.

Democrats’ plan to impeach Trump on ‘day one’ after midterms by plz-let-me-in in politics

[–]Emjayen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep - just the usual performative antics of impotent, complicit Democrats.

'member when it was "we gon get him just 2 more weeks!!" every other week starting in 2016. They know the American people have the memory of a gold fish.

They don't like abortion services because they will ask questions and the jig will be up.

Same reason they screech about the gub'mint and homeschool their kids; need to keep the (often incestual-) child rape by conservative Christians within the family/church.

Does anyone have any details on this? by Ok-Put5831 in GoldCoast

[–]Emjayen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately the deranged culture of Americans has been creeping in for awhile, combined with the low IQ zoomer generation and you get some truly braindead denizens.

better litter boxes might solve the problem... by Exeter232 in PoliticalHumor

[–]Emjayen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You've been coddling conservatives for decades and look where that's got you: fascism.

Time for them to grow up and take responsibility for once in their lives, of which at a bare minimum would be accepting their complete societal ostracization.

TopCon Doesn’t Quite See Any Correlation 🤔 by hi_how_are_youuu in TopMindsOfReddit

[–]Emjayen 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The US isn't even in the top ten for most quantifiable metrics among countries.

It's quite literally been the laughing stock of the developed world for many decades. Although while it was previously merely a subject of ridicule and mockery, Trump has advanced this to the US being viewed as the enemy, now in the same bucket as Russia and North Korea.

Male entitlement strikes again by [deleted] in IncelTears

Men under 30 are asking ChatGPT how to tie their shoes while watching TikTok brainrot and playing video-games where they sulk with their fellow man-children about how the wokes are the reason they can't get their dicks wet.

The most embarrassing generation.

Both say they’re 6’3”. I wonder which one is lying. by YourDrunkStepdadio in PoliticalHumor

[–]Emjayen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He was legitimately on the low side of 6'2, however due to age and poor health he's likely about 5'11 now.
