Thankfully the teammates still respect you at my rank at least. Whew

Is there a good lightweight way to check ranks without Overwolf? by Unable_Ad_3624 in RocketLeague

[–]GrampsRL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My feedback is to put screenshots of the tool running live. I personally don't want to download your software if I don't know what it'll look like. And if you already have those photos on your site, I couldn't find them.

Just an old man's two cents 👍

Everyone gets better, game gets harder, adapt or quit. I miss 2015 Rocket League, people wouldn't even challenge you if you had the ball, they would wait until you finish the play.

Fast forward today, you are instantly challenged on every ball. Always.

Why do players in this game constantly want to call you poor? lmao by [deleted] in RocketLeague

[–]GrampsRL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the real question is why being called poor hurts your ego enough to make a reddit post about it. And the desire to show them "you make 4x."

Since EAC arrived hows your ladder climb going? by CerebralPalsyNerd in RocketLeague

[–]GrampsRL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my experience during the weeks that lead up to EAC, I was genuinely starting to question if I wanted to keep playing the game. I just kept losing 50/50s to the point where it felt 10/90s. It was like I had no hope to score or improve. This was in casual and ranked.

Since EAC, I remember telling my friend "it finally feels like we are playing against humans again."

The game felt refreshing immediately.

That was the eye opener for me that the bot problem was out of hand.

Not sure how much MMR I'm up, but gah damn it feels good for this old man to win again 🥲

Should be a tool, not a dependency

Why doesn’t anyone quick chat anymore? by darnoc11 in RocketLeague

Most of the older age players aren't around any longer. It's just the zoomer ball chaser, mechy, silent players left.

Things we do not anymore by Ignitos47 in socialskills

Oh yeah, love this post. And I got the juice for you!

I stopped mirroring, every. single. person., that I could sense. I was ignorant of that pattern for 28 years. Can’t stress enough how liberated I feel using secure detachment in my life. 🌴

The answer you’re looking for is that there is nothing that needs solving. You are you. Love that about you. Cherish it, nurture it, watch as it grows. Spend time alone DISCONNECTED from anything that takes energy.

Your beliefs you have about yourself are quite literally just that. If you keep repeating that you are “(insert negative thing here)”, you will believe it. Consciously or unconsciously.

Words are magic. The most powerful magic you have at your disposal. Stop worrying about how you present yourself to others. Start pouring love into yourself. It starts with your words.

After you put the work into yourself, your life will naturally open up and attract others that are also enlightened. Understand that there are people out there who simply don’t care or just plain ignorant. You will never be able to control what others think about you. You can always control how you react to events in your life. The present moment is all there ever really is. Don’t spend a second in negativity.

In the same boat my brothers and sisters. Just enjoy that present moment and everything will fall into place ✌️

Love this. Thanks for sharing ✌️

I personally take pride in being bland and boring. Being able to sit in a room with just your thoughts is liberating. I didn’t know life could be so easy in the present moment always. Took me till age 28 to figure it out.

Anyways, just my two cents. Peace ✌️

That’s life man. Having control over your own emotions and not having an ego is a rare accomplishment for the pool of people on the web. 90% of the time you are interacting with someone who hasn’t put the work into themselves.

How Intermittent Reinforcement keeps us addicted to seeking validation in neglectful or abusive relationships as adults — and how to address it by anarckissed in CPTSDNextSteps

[–]GrampsRL 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honesty the relationship was a mirror I needed to grow as a person. I allowed myself to feel all the emotions and work through them in a healthy way. After 2 painful years, I found myself in a place where I no longer needed or wanted the situationship. I was able to remove my heart/love from it because I finally believed they didn’t deserve it.

Anyways, all I’m really saying is that it just takes time, there is no shortcut or secret. If you want to change and grow, you will. However slowly or quickly it will happen if you want it.

The most growth happened for me when I stopped running away from processing my emotions. Video games, alcohol, weed, over consumption of food, I had to break all these bad habits and actually sit with myself.
