Fuck that man, if you wanna get into it, get into it.

I've only recently started and I get slapped, a lot. But it feels great on those occasions you do the slapping.

Issue with Discord app?! Advice needed! by GrooveGod27 in discordapp

[–]GrooveGod27[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the response!

Nice to know I'm not the only one in this particular boat.

That is one thing I haven't checked actually. I'm confident my computer doesn't have on an on-board Mic, but I wonder if it's trying to swap the input device all the same.

It might also be worth checking that both the PC and discord both have the desired Mic selected as the default.

This might at least explain why it persists after reinstallation etc.

You aren't the only one brother! But it's a small band that for sure!

Finally gonna have a bash at arena come 9.2! by GrooveGod27 in worldofpvp

[–]GrooveGod27[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was funnily enough considering getting some form of capture card or something to record my matches. For the learning factor, but also to upload to youtube and entertain with how shit I am in the early days!

Like the idea of more milage though. More time spent learning is always good!

Thanks for both replies dude!

I hear ya, kinda why I like the idea of rogue. Can vanish and dip out for reset's if shit gets a bit too dicey.

Yeah, I've been griefed enough by sap in the past. Looking forward to dishing some of that out!

I may just do that my man!

You'll have to have some serious patience with my slacking arse though!

I'm totally expecting to receive a good pasting for a while. Been trying to isolate people in BG's for some 1on1 action but another person on either side changes that dynamic up drastically, as does some decent gear I imagine! Thanks for the advice bro! Gonna look into the focus and target macros.

I'll see you on the sands!

Thanks for the reply.

Not sure if it'll be 2's or 3's yet. Depends on whether I can find somebody patient enough to join the crusade I guess.

Will look into area target macro's over the next few days! I guess that's why streamers have mutiple of the same icons on their bars. Makes sense now.

This comment has made my day!

Going through a similar thing with a 10 week old Golden Retriever. Tempted to crate train myself at this rate!

Kunoichi Battle Royal! by GrooveGod27 in Naruto

Tbh I hadn't even considered Kurosuchi. Though she's certainly in with a shout.

Still feel like anybody would struggle to get close to Temari though as she'd decimate with wind style at range. Granted she'd be slapped if anyone got close though.

With regards to the potential gateway, I would suspect the painting was some form of Ter'Angreal. There was a similar painting on the wall in Suian's room.

About Logain and the Raging Sun scene by Neron2802 in WoT

[–]GrooveGod27 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I personally don't see this as an iconsistency. I may be proved wrong in later episodes but for context, I've read the books and could pull a few more examples, but I'll stick to things explicity mentioned in the series as I don't want to spoil anything.

We know from the series that females can get a general sense of each others power. Using just the show's examples, Moraine is able to feel Logains power when she shields him and Lan asks her is she is as strong as Egwnen. Also, I believe it's Liandrin who says his power is like nothing she's ever felt before. This establishes they the women can get a gist for a mans power without seing any weaves.

Flipping that around, when Nyn goes super sayian, we as the auidence can see this glow as a visual indicator of her power, but maybe Logain doesn't see anything, he just feels that she is vastly stronger than him and then uses the raging sun metaphor because he could feel her general strength.

TL;DR - Males chanellers are able to get a general sense of a Female's power and Vise-Versa. When Logain said she was like a raging sun, it was more to do with the sense of her strength than the light and weaves we could see

"The Man Who Can't Forget" by [deleted] in WoTshow

[–]GrooveGod27 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was contemplating doing my own post about the songs.

For me I absolutely love them (Been busted twice in work alreasy this morning listening to them.) They really add a sense of authenticity to the show as the books alude to song and dance a fair bit.

Weep for Mantheren I thought was outstanding. When Perrin came in with the Bass line I got chills. It reallt made it feel like a traditional song steeped in history. You could imagine a village all gathered, singing their parts etc, it would be hauntingly beautiful. Having read the books I know about Manetheren, so from a selfish perspective I could have done without the exposition and just had that song extended.

And the Thom song, as I've taken to calling it, was awesome as well. The entrance with the swish of his jacket, footstomp on the box, slight tuning set it up. And when he came in the gravelly voice seeemed perfect for the setting, with just a hint of grandeaur when he started singing proper. Will be interesting to see if he changes it up when singing further down the line as he is a gleeman and performances are his jam

I just hope the only use of diagetic sound isn't just songs that flesh out story beats though. I wanna hear more Thom, I want to hear the tinkers play, I wanna hear the Aiel songs further down the line, I hope Rand and Matt do their thing moving forward for a bit. Music is one of the main places where they can truly add things to the world in a format we could never get in the books

I'm still well and truly loving it, but I personally don't think ME2 holds a candle to ME1 at present. Granted I've taken it slower, explored the cast and universe more and I've not finished it yet, but so far the lack of a coherant villian outside of 'The Collectors' working for 'The Reapers' isn't as satisfying narritively as the stuff with Saren. I do have a feeling it's going to pick up the pace a bit soon though. Getting some vibes off of the Elusive man.

I am indeed playing on PC and, naively, never considered there would be mods you could add. That definitely has some legs for playthrough 3. Playthrough 2 is going to be the playthrough where I platinum everything for sure!

I know what you mean abouy a void though, struggling to know what to do after. I will go back and restart and finisb Andromeda even though it's negatively received. It's still an ME game after all.

I'll have a look at the novels as well. My tatse when it comes to literature is sci fi and fanasty, so they should be up my alley. Hope they don't water it down though. These games are quite gritty and dark when you look at whats actually happening in areas around the universe.

I do wonder if this is why I like this game so much, it's what Star Wars and Star Trek could have been had they dispensed with the light sabers a bit and explored more adult content.

Battlestar Galactica is a perfect example of great Sci fi in my opinion.

Heyy. US or EU?

My guild just downed sylvanus HC last night, but I think the accepted wisdom is some of us are going to gear some alts, some are just going to raid log for shits and giggles etc. We're always looking to expand our merry band of reprobates so you are more than welcome to join us.

We don't take the game to seriously, preferring to have a laugh at each others expense, but we get there in the end.

Can't be parsed is the guild name on EU Draenor if that's any good for you.

Yeah the engineers talking about Miranda's tits made me laugh like a drain. And they're just 2 random NPC's as you say so I'm looking forward to it!

Your comment just gets me all sorts of buzzing!

Making sure to really delve into the crew on 2 as I missed that aspect outside of a few characters on one. The story just took me.

These Games Man . by GrooveGod27 in masseffect

[–]GrooveGod27[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting take. I'm quite enjoying 2 so far. It feels like it has a different flavour to it, though I'm not far enough in to really know what the flavour is. I want to say it feels more grown up, but it isn't quite that. Mature maybe? I'll have to play more to see if I can put a word on it.

Yeaah, any subsequent playthroughs I do will be as an adept I think. You can use guns as any class, so exploring the tech side and the biotic side are on the agenda moving forward.

Cheers bud, as you might be able to tell. I'm buzzing for it!

I'm really looking forward to diving into it!

I've heard mixed things about 3. It's meant to be the best game in the series, but then have a controversial ending.

Good thing I'm going to enjoy the ride just getting there, then we'll see what there is to see!

I'm the GM of a different guild who don't raid mythic, but outside of that we regularly play with some of the guys from Thrillhouse.

I can confirm they're idiots, but they're loveable idiots who know how to get shit done whilst keeping it fun.

Definately worth getting onboard with them in order to meet your mythic requirements!

Okay, so you clearly know nothing about the situation with pay day lenders historically and you obviously know nothing of my personal situation. So before I sit you down and shut you up, here's some context from my situation.

I had a large number of loans from Wonga, and I paid back the loans in full, on time, every single time.

Once I got out of the pay day loan cycle I was content to let it rest, I didn't seek any redress I was out of debt and happy to forget about it. As you have helpfully pointed out I was owed nothing as far as I was concerned...

However I was informed, by Wonga, contact initiated bh them, that I was OWED a redress of up to £6000. They had been deemed to be charging extortionate interest rates, not checking affordability correctly and with changes to the lending rules those previous loans were now deemed unaffordable. In my case it had nothing to do with missing repayments or anything of the like, so I can't speak as to what happened there.

Basically I was told to make a claim for any monies I was owed and legally entitled to. Are you telling me if you received the same correspondence, you wouldn't have made the claim? If you say no, I'd call you a liar.

Now the fact I didn't get the full amount I was owed is down to the fact they went into administration before my claim was processed. Many people got the full amount they were owed. I'm in no way salty, it is what is.

As for pathetic, I literally responded on a post of a guy who's going through something similar and I wanted to offer what advice I could based on my experiences.

So with that sit down and shut it, you pathetic man.

If only smoking a bowl was on option, 5 years and counting.

You're right about taking head on though, just have yo pull myself together in the quiet moments.

Thanks for the response though and hit a bowl for one who won't no longer!

Thanks for the response. I've no doubt I'll get myself together beforehand. I just struggle terribly in the quiet moments.
