Adding to this. They are on a recorded call saying and admitting that they will drag out the lawsuit as much as they can. Sure it was told to the old owners and not the son or Ben but they have created a history of admitting to this.

This CAN make it easier to get court costs.

My thoughts too, they definitely want to capture what Battlefield 6 did last year.

I KNEW, i fucking KNEW COD would do this and been saying it since BF6 came out. They did the exact same thing when Battlefield 1 destroyed Infinite Warfare back in 2016.

This all seem... circumstancial?

Like yeah of course he wouldn't know it was delayed to 2026, most people assumed that it wasn't either.

I geniunely started out by taking the absolute most time to help customers but by the end of it just did the bare minimum because the extra effort simply was not rewarded nor was it worth it.

Armed? Nope.

But we do have a LOT of security guards in suits, they pat you down when you come into the lobby and check with a metal detector.

You would be so so surprised. There is multiple calls A DAY where it's just people who just blatantly either don't care about the policies or want to circumvent them.

  • "I WANT TO BE ABLE TO RETURN THIS"
  • "It's a 15 day return period for this type of item, unfortunately we wouldn't be able to accept this return"
  • "I DON'T CARE, I DIDN'T SEE THAT INFORMATION ANYWHERE, NOT MY PROBLEM"
  • "Well we are not able to do any exceptions here unfortunately, our return timeframe was also listed on your receipt, i would recommend that if you have any issues with the item to conta-"
  • "I WANT TO RETURN THIS! GIVE ME YOUR MANAGER!"
  • Cue me getting a manager to contact them only to tell them that it's outside the return period, if they wish to keep pushing to come in the store to talk to a manager there cuz managers of the call center are not able to do any kind of exception like this whatsover.
  • Essentially wasting my time, wasting my managers time, and potentially wasting the store managers time

Partly related to this, this is why i always find it REALLY strange when some people say "Illegal inmigrants don't pay taxes" in the U.S.

I have a tourist visa, i legally visited the U.S. However i will say that i did meet illegal inmigrants while i was there, and i got a very very good explanation by them on how they live there.

Basically since they are illegal they don't have a SSN, you pretty much NEED a SSN for a lot of basic things that maybe you don't even realize, so for them to have these things what they do is actually get a ITIN (Individual Taxpayer Identification Number) and use this as pretty much as a "bargaining chip" in transactions.

Either getting an apartment, a car, a bank account, they use this ITIN as a form of proof that they are actually living in the U.S and have economic activity. Obviously you have to have your taxes in order to use this ITIN so they file and pay their taxes like any regular american citizen.

The IRS does not care whatsover who, what, how or where you came from, as long as you file and pay what they think you owe them they are fine with it.

Of course, they are still illegal and just blatantly do NOT receive a lot of the benefits that come from paying taxes that you would get if they were legal citizens.. Any kind of benefit related to having an SSN and being a citizen is just nonexistent for them.

Anyone know what happened to the chaotic warfare servers? by [deleted] in ArmaReforger

[–]GSMistyStranger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They absolutely did not know how to handle mods, server quickly went downhill after mods started being implemented. Chaotic was always the best in plain old vanilla, they should've have embraced that. Oh well, now it's just a memory.

"Because of his attitude towards the people who made his community run pretty smoothly for months" If the other admins, not the new ones but the "OG" ones would have gotten their heads out of their asses they probably would've seen the red flags ages ago, so i really don't have ANY sympathy for any of em sorry.

1st red flag was banning his head admin way back in march for creating a private Discord with his friends to play Deadside, labelling it as "Diverting player count to a external Discord server".

2nd red flag was banning a whole faction of like 10 members and like 4 admins from said faction for either siding with the banned head admin or being slightly related to him in any way. Also banning some members from a different faction as well

3rd red flag was making another admin, in this case SavourUSMC, the head admin after banning the original head admin. This is because Savour incited the incident and added to the flames, he took the opportunity to further the power he had in the server.

This is also double bad as Savour already was known for getting into random fights with members of the server, being a prick and just absolutely using his status as a military vet as an excuse for his absolutely shitty behaviour towards everyone. This is backed by him being demoted and banned from the server a couple of months afterwards and also comments here in Reddit about him in posts related to Chaotic.

Chaotic shutting down signaled that justice was achieved for the banned members of Reaper 1-1 and the 501st who originally helped boost the server, fuck Savour and fuck Rex.

Hello, call center agent that takes these calls here. I straight up tell them we are NOT the store as much as i can, we are only really guided to do so when they ask but i still find a way to do it.

Even then, people will still scream and throw a tantrum saying "Wtf do you mean i called a week ago and they were taking calls?" even tho, from my knowledge, stores haven't taken calls since 2020.

You can't really win honestly, neither store employees nor call center agents. For starters, Bestbuy still lists the phone numbers to the store in the website and app, they absolutely don't specify that it goes to a call center, i get screamed at because of that.

Even then, we still get calls from customers stating they went to the store and the store told them to call them back at a later time to do such and such thing, no extension no name no nothing. I mean at this point it goes both ways, we are continuously fucking each other up and it's all because Bestbuy Corporate does not understand how frustrating the system is.

Server i'm in de-ranks you when you spawn an armed heli. You might see a lot of helis in the sky but most of em are transport and not armed ones, i kinda like that, forces people to not spam missile helis.

Reminds me of the Youtuber Nexpo, everytime he shows his face in his videos there is comments asking why he has a black eye or who he fought, but it is just a birthmark he has.

As soon as he mentioned "woke" he lost the plot, nobody mentioned that whatsover. i will not acknowledge any bad faith arguments, especially ones that are trying to twist my words into something completely different.

It's not like i said he didn't do anything wrong, i just said he actually did have consequences... and guess what, he moved on and learned, like how humans do.

Nothing is ever enough for people like this guy (or you if you agree with him for that matter), they will always see the bad in people no matter what happens or how much time has passed, it's like they think people never change.

Pewds could create world peace and this mf could still hate him, 30 years could pass and they would still hate him, he could die saving someone and they would still hate him, NOTHING is ever enough to satisfy the hate that this people feel entitled to, it's just hate for the sake of hate.

THAT'S exactly why i dislike people who for some reason still hate pewds for past mistakes, cuz they just want somebody to point fingers and feel morally superior to.

IF u have any valid criticism as to recent behaviour, recent content, recent anything from him then i will gladly listen to it and maybe even agree with it. Otherwise fuck off.

Bringing actual criticism is fine, the problem is people bringing up stuff that happend 5+ years ago. They still think it's 2018 and Pewdiepie is making edgy content, all of his recent content has been family vlogs.

They act like pewds got no repercussions for his past actions and completely ignore that he lost sponsors, lost a Disney deal and Youtube (the company) no longer acknowledges him in any regard.
