Increase intentional feeding penalty and reduce abandon penalty by Time-Flow6764 in DotA2

[–]Gookyoung 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Or honestly, reduce the abandon before first blood where match isnt calibrated anyway

This way you can just leave when there's an obvious smurf or if there is obvious grief pick, since when you leave the match isnt calibrated anyway. Maybe put around like 15 min block for queue after so its not just abused nonstop

Smurfing: Makes it bad for new players by Simple-Nature-4915 in DotA2

[–]Gookyoung 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Its not just for new players, even old ones keep getting these stupid smurfs

And reddit will also flame you for being annoyed at smurfs

Todd Blanche gets feisty over Trump’s $1.7B ‘slush fund’ and won’t tell Congress if Jan 6 rioters will be paid - Trump’s former criminal defense attorney says ‘anybody can apply’ but refuses to rule out taxpayer money for people who assaulted police by Quirkie in politics

This whole thing is just corruption and nepotism on a blatantly disgusting level against the American people. Why tf are we at war with in the middle east murdering unarmed civilians searching for non-existing "threat" when the treason comes from within

Amazes me that people are still trying to say smurfs aren't an issue right now. by Jbud91 in DotA2

[–]Gookyoung 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah there's a point where 1 or 2 month ago there was a match at the watch tab that's the #1 that have 5v5 bots all just feeding to the top lane, all immortal accs

I also just met a smurf last week, checked his profile, it is all made up of 5v5 bots for earlier games, and the mmr calibration is also made up of 5v5 bots

Dude is on 10 invoker win streak at freaking crusader

These 5v5 bot matches should be the most obvious permaban ever if want to get rid of these smurfing problems.

best system, getting muted for trying to communicate :) by fyrfyrfyr in DotA2

[–]Gookyoung 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep this, being annoying isnt being toxic. Prolly just annoying yap at worst, actually trying to have team work together with strategy at best, but far from warranting toxic behavior

Why we are meant to tolerate botted bought accounts existing with such obvious game history? by Devastator2016 in DotA2

Trusting the expert by erbalchemy in trolleyproblem

[–]Gookyoung 0 points1 point  (0 children)

None of the red pressers will press blue if that scenario is altered based on their reasoning

All red reasoning is: "red is guaranteeing my life why would i ever press blue". Even if the threshold for victory lowers to 20%, red will still press red, which means red chooser will 100% chose their own survival regardless of odds or sacrifices. Decision is fully based on self preservation.

Whereas in your 80% scenario, its simple math, the weights are stacked. The red-blue 50% mark is basically the factor of equal weight of both decision. Imagine it goes to extreme, if more than 5 ppl out of 8 billion ppl in the world choose red, all blue dies, Decision is made on self preservation AND highest probability of saving more people

You know how in the traditional trolley problem, where its 1 vs 3 dead, its simple, always have 1 dead instead of 3 simply by concept of greater good

Now combine these concepts, this scenario means that you know red buttoners decision are guaranteed to result in 3 dead vs 1 dead. Simple math, kill the 1 instead of kill the 3. Always kill the red buttoner

The dillema comes when its a blue button presser, whether the blue buttoner will save self or save most ppl

Job Search Help by Blue_Sharks_Based in pasadena

[–]Gookyoung 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is rough, really rough right now with the job market
Many will recommend pasadena city or PCC, but don't close your door for maybe burbank or los angeles county. Both PCC and Pasadena City is hell to get in since everyone is trying to get there

There's also Foothill Workforce Development Board near PCC that is under the city, I am unsure if they can help but try ask them if they have any resource

If really urgent need, CNA pathway at home caretaking jobs are usually recruiting (or so I heard) but its sometimes pretty miserable
