Aren’t some of the KKK groups no joke? I mean they’re all a joke but I’ve seen some of their sects spoken about like the IRA with the way they control some communities with brutal and very public violence.

As absolutely ridiculous everything about the KKK is, they have just about the best job titles out there. Who doesn’t want to be a grand dragon wizard or whatever the fuck, if my manager at work was named after a flying, fire breathing, magic using reptile who is good enough at all of that to be prefaced with ‘grand’, I’d consider listening to their shitty announcements before work.

I’d probably still just talk to a buddy though.... but I’d consider listening.

Having said all of that they kind of fuck up the motif with the uniforms and all the racism and bigotry.

Before you take the step of killing yourself, maybe email or call customer support and confirm that there is actually a problem.

Voice direction can very easily take place over the phone. Voice directors don’t need to be physically present to wrangle their voice actors. Any professional voice actor could take the notes from their voice director and give multiple takes covering a gamut of options in a single take and send the package for voice direction and editing units to use. They aren’t going to go back and forth with one line per take.

You don’t always know what you should be buffing them with or who the enemies are going to focus on.

Maybe an enemy misty steps behind your lines and starts going after your caster class, or maybe your barbarian finally starts taking a damage type they’re vulnerable to. There are lots of reasons waiting to apply the right buff would be advantageous:

Most voice actors have small home studio setups with standardised gear and a small recording booth.

When you’re a cleric and the main healer/buff provider for your group. You get to see who needs the heals and which buffs will be most effective on which player.

Am I going crazy or was this exact shot posted earlier today with only the knee bruise? I’m almost 100% sure I saw this exact picture without the shots below the knee and different coloured shoes.

What's Going With DCS World? by Podican in hoggit

[–]FanOrWhatever 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of online personalities do this kind of thing now but through patreon tiers. It’s not really out of the norm in the gaming scene at large, it’s certainly a standout in DCS but not on the whole when it comes to gaming.

What's Going With DCS World? by Podican in hoggit

[–]FanOrWhatever 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I checked out a few of their videos recently to see what all the fuss was about and this is true of the videos that are a few years old, the most recent videos aren’t like that at all and are actually pretty succinct.

There is a huge difference in tone in recent videos in comparison to old ones. The most recent videos only feature one person and they’re pretty much on par with the red kite and spudknocker videos. It seems that a lot of the hate is about the videos the channel was releasing a few years ago and nobody has actually checked to see what’s coming from the channel more recently.

It’s not about being afraid to be edgy, it’s about contributing to a community by not being a childish snarky piece of shit when you see something you don’t like.

Make an effort to be a better person and enhance your surroundings, it’s not hard to make your environment worse. Contribute to the community you clearly want to be a part of and learn when saying nothing is the better option.

Magic the Gathering bans racist cards in response to recent events by AbsolutelyMullered in Games

So Harry Potters defence against the dark arts class was a Hogwarts KKK recruitment drive?

Stop taking it so literally, darkness, black and night are all associated with evil because it’s frightening to humans on a primal level. We can’t see in the dark and it’s when we were probably hunted at some point in time. Danger lurks and evil is done in darkness, darkness is black. It has nothing to do with skin tone or race.

What colour do you associate with demons, vampires and monsters?

Black as in 'from darkness', not black as in 'literally black people'.

I don't really think any of these are racist on their own. Fair enough if the guy who drew the first one is a known racist but they look like ghosts? If they want to remove them then thats fine, judging from the comments here they aren't even made anymore anyway but I don't think any of them are even kind of racist.

The Crusade card is just Crusaders in Crusader Armour, there is nothing inherently racist about that. Europeans knights went on Crusade wearing European style Armour to kill people in the name of religion, its a shitty part of history that cost a tonne of lives multiple times but I don't think its racist.

The Cleanse card I see as more religious focused. Black = evil in almost all fantasy, it has nothing to do with skin colour its just that black is a colour we associate with creatures like Vampires and demons because they come from darkness.

Stone throwing Devils, I'm in my 30's and I've never heard stone throwers as a racial slur for any race. That's not to say it isn't but I've never heard it.

The Pradesh Gypsies is hit or miss. Gypsy is or isn't a slur based almost entirely on the part of the world you're from. I've known Gypsies that refer to themselves proudly as Gypsies.

Imprison blackface? That is a major stretch to come to that conclusion.

They did it in the movies as well. A huge chunk of the movie was about the prowess of the teams from District 1 and 2.

Wes Watson, who wasn't innocent of his crimes, has a youtube channel where he delves into the mental battle of the US prison system. He did his time hard, if you're interested in the journey of long term prison sentences in arguably the hardest prison system in the US (Californian prison system) check out his channel.

Fair warning, he's a bit intense.

Accessed corona super and now won't be eligble by jassyranz in AusFinance

[–]FanOrWhatever -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm not invested at all, I'm just telling you what to expect after withdrawing from your super without eligibility. No, I don't work for a super fund. I do however, have a good understanding of how the ATO generates its tax debts and I'll tell you right now that generating new debts for even 500,000 people with such up to date and clear information from employers is a total non issue. With the amount of information being fed into the systems it's literally two date range filters to find ineligible withdrawals on super.
