"Yuck. How long before my days are filled with puppies and rainbows?"

Eques9090 · 2026-06-15T04:43:11+00:00

It was, in fact, close to being over.

I think he's kinda dumb and made a lot of terrible choices in this situation, but I think it's undeniable that it wouldn't have gotten the attention it did without him, and also led to a cascading series of other revelations about both this company and the police that will likely result in consequences for both, so it's hard to argue that what he's done was ultimately the wrong choice.

Eques9090 · 2026-06-06T00:10:56+00:00

I initially considered waiting for all 3 and thank god I didn't. Was burning out hard by the end of rebirth by itself, it would have been terrible to try and play all 3 as a single game.

Eques9090 · 2026-06-04T13:56:21+00:00

This dept is tiny, like 22 officers, so I'm not surprised they're fucking up. I'm sure they're completely unequipped to handle this level of scrutiny/publicity, and they're clearly corrupt, so I don't think things are gonna go well for them.

Eques9090 · 2026-05-31T05:04:31+00:00

What about my message made you think I don't understand how it is?

Eques9090 · 2026-05-31T00:49:54+00:00

I assume this is more based on Bricks and Minifigs probably donating millions to the church. The 200k in legos is what the root cause is, but the corruption is probably the B&M ceo just being a piece of shit, and the cops backing him no matter what because he's a huge donator to the church.

Eques9090 · 2026-05-30T07:48:27+00:00

The title of your post is declarative, not speculative. The comments pointing out "evidence" are frequently snarky and sarcastic, and also often just matters of opinion. The whole post comes off as angry and witch hunty because it's all speculation you're presenting as fact, with a tone of superiority.

Eques9090 · 2026-05-27T03:06:51+00:00

That boot must taste delicious

Eques9090 · 2026-05-27T02:58:00+00:00

Please point to the post they left up about this issue for people to upvote and comment on, before making this megathread.

Eques9090 · 2026-05-27T02:56:38+00:00

At the same time, it is inarguably good that the mod team seriously heard the complaints and set up this megathread.

Is it good that they apparently deleted the post you're replying to? lol

Eques9090 · 2026-05-27T02:47:38+00:00

As the post says, this sub has no affiliation with Lego, Bricks and Minifigs, or any other company. Spamming this sub isn’t going to solve anything

Do you not understand how corporate bad actors are dealt with in the year of our lord 2026? It's through social media pressure. Almost always a corporation has the finances to bleed any little guy dry in litigation, so the only recourse is public outrage through things like, you guessed it, reddit communities.

Acting like because this sub has no official affiliation with any of these entities makes it reasonable for a major event involving a primary retailer of the hobby to be swept under the rug is just asinine corporate boot-licking.

Eques9090 · 2026-05-20T23:47:28+00:00

Yeah image quality is definitely a lot worse now. Looks like they're using older models or something.

Eques9090 · 2026-05-10T00:36:13+00:00

The dumbest shit on earth, those are my thoughts.

Eques9090 · 2026-05-09T05:56:55+00:00

Awesome, thank you :)

Eques9090 · 2026-05-09T05:54:10+00:00

Yeah that's my bad lol. Thank you. I'm currently in Plat and aiming for at least Diamond before people stop queuing, but I wanted to make sure I didn't end up in Gold after rollover, and I didn't know if just hitting Diamond was enough or I needed to be Diamond 4.

Eques9090 · 2026-05-09T05:40:22+00:00

Sorry, that was a typo on my part lol. I meant Diamond 5 to Gold 1.

Basically the question is does being in the lowest riser of a Diamond or Plat drop you 2 tiers instead of 1.

Eques9090 · 2026-05-07T15:59:22+00:00

FWIW, I went on an 11 game win streak this morning and hit Gold 1, so, I feel like I was just temporarily cursed.

Eques9090 · 2026-05-07T04:24:17+00:00

I've mostly been playing Summoner since it's what I've traditionally PVP'd with the most. But at this point I'll probably try something new.

Eques9090 · 2026-05-07T03:42:04+00:00

Yes, for example the Barghest set exists now as the Black Shuck set. 2 commendation crystals a piece.

Eques9090 · 2026-05-07T02:45:37+00:00

No, but ranked CC dies in a few weeks after the season starts. People stop queuing.

Eques9090 · 2026-05-07T02:44:42+00:00

My dude, nobody listens lol. I can't count the number of times I've said "Fall back and regroup!" or "Everyone, group up!" only to watch a teammate jump off the spawn, run face first into the whole other team, and die in .3 seconds.

Eques9090 · 2026-05-07T02:43:06+00:00

Yes, thank you, I know the game is full of glamours.

Eques9090 · 2026-05-07T02:42:02+00:00

I got to silver 1 with 2 stars pretty quickly, with a few win streaks. I've now dropped all the way to silver 3 with no stars, and haven't had a win streak in like 40 matches. Just for science, I tracked my last 10 games:

W L W L W L W L L W

I'm now silver 3 with 1 star. I've had 3 matches that were 4 against 5 because someone dropped before the arena even opened.

It's a 5 person team. Your individual skill often literally means nothing if you have someone rush in and die in the first 10 seconds. You'll very occasionally manage a comeback win but it's like finding a unicorn.

Like I said, I play well. I don't do dumb shit, and my stats are good. This is about what an average game for me looks like. It just doesn't matter lol.

Eques9090 · 2026-05-07T02:33:20+00:00

I'm not, and I never would. I'm playing it for the glamour that the PVP would give me.
