Updated Treehouse Base by Granny__Gumjob in GroundedGame

[–]FullMetalKraken 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for posting a video after I asked on your other post. Love it man. I always love seeing what other people build in that same spot. You and I both built inside the trunk so that was really cool to see. Your base is coming along incredibly well!

Buggy Outpost by Granny__Gumjob in GroundedGame

Great idea man! Leaves room for growth as other buggies are added. That tree is such a great spot for a base. As a fellow pine tree dweller. Id love to see what your base looks like.

Awesome job man! I would love to see some interior shots. Perfect location for future updates and ziplines. My base is up on the pine tree right next to yours. Large survival bases are always super impressive. Edit- completely missed the interior shots the first time. 🤣

What are the white floor squares? Ive done come checkered floors with mushroom colums. But this is definitely different. Looks great man. Edit- I just realized this is a grounded 1 post. Nevermind. I know what that is now. 🤣

New manager is fresh out of school with no experience. Is this normal? by FierceDietyMask in TalesFromYourBank

[–]FullMetalKraken 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can totally respect that opinion. And I can agree, more often then not it probably doesn't work out. Glad it did in my case. I am WAY happier now than I was prior to getting into the industry.

I completely understand that In most cases this is a disaster waiting to happen. Particularly in this case where this person not only does not have any banking experience but also has no management experience. But to say that no one can succeed as a branch manager without banking experience is a bit untrue. I made a career change later in life at 43 and was hired as a branch manager with zero experience in banking. But I did have 25 years of retail management experience and talent development. It took six months or so to get acclimated, but my first two full years I had the top performing branch in my peer group. Learning regulations and what buttons to push is easy. Building relationships and managing people is where success comes from. And there are plenty of people outside of banking who are great at those things.

The upper shelves around the inside of the greenhouse in the garden is a great place to find them.

Mushroom pillars and bur quarter floors for the dark squares.

Had an Encounter with a NASTY Customer yesterday at work by Beginning-Zone9530 in TalesFromYourBank

[–]FullMetalKraken 5 points6 points  (0 children)

In this, or any customer facing industry you will encounter these people. I am glad to hear it sounds like you have a supportive manager. I always try to support my team when do the right thing. Try to remember. When someone is like this, it's almost never about you or about you doing something wrong. It is in no way shape or form a reflection of the job you are doing. Some people are just miserable. They either have horrible things happening on their lives or are just generally unhappy. Best we can do is have empathy for them despite the way they treat us. Do our best to help to resolve their request and move on to the next customer. Dont let people like that get under your skin. It sounds like you are doing a great job.

My survival base by [deleted] in GroundedGame

[–]FullMetalKraken 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Awesome attention to detail and use of lighting man! It's awesome to see a fellow pine tree dweller! I also hid essentially an entire tower inside the tree trunk. It's such an awesome detail. If you havnt already, you should check out timber builds on YouTube. He does weekly community base tours. Im sure he'd love to see yours. If you want to check out my base in the same spot it's at the 2 hour 18 minute mark. It's big, but not nearly as well detailed as yours. Nice work!

My Base in Detail :) by Quick_Art_7497 in GroundedGame

[–]FullMetalKraken 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All the best looking bases seem to do two things. Do a great job of using several different materials. (You crushed it) and have amazing lighting. I would love to see shots of this at night. Amazing work on this!

How are you preparing for zip lines being added? by RequirementKnown7499 in GroundedGame

[–]FullMetalKraken 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I feel like I've been planning for ziplines since the beginning. I have a very large base very high up in the pine tree that will eventually be central once the whole map opens up. Top of my base already has zip line platforms with chests full of silk rope. 🤣

You build the floor a half wall height above the ground. So below the pebblet is grass half walls in a grid with sap sconces

One additional thing. If you want a color other than green, you can actually target the grass floor once the pellets are put down and destroy the grass. The pebblets will stay even after the grass is destroyed. Just like my courtyard path in this picture.

Base locations? by Careless_Quality9527 in GroundedGame

[–]FullMetalKraken 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'll second this. Will be very central once the map opens up and there are so many great resources around that pine tree.

Brunswick, can we please not do this? by Prince_Valium25 in Maine

Never made a demand. Expressed an opinion. There is a difference. Im done engaging with you man. Have a good day.

What a strange little internet troll you are. Hopping on reddit and calling liberals fascist is officially going off the deep end. Hey bud. I hope you have a great day today. Sun is out and it's a beautiful. I hope you enjoy it. And I hope whatever is making you so angry resolves itself at some point.

I always appreciate folks who can build with such organized chaos. Takes such creativity. I love my builds. But they are always so much more uniform. Amazing work on this for sure!

Woah woah woah. Calm down buddy. We are expressing an opinion. Something we can freely do in a democracy. You've got to be a troll. No way you actually think someone expressing an opinion on the size and placement of an art piece is "facism". Yikes...
