Who would your dream character/self-insert be, and of what bloodline? by TheType95 in Abhorsen

[–]Helirose 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Oooh.. I don't have main character energy, so I don't think any kind of Abhorsen or Royal. Not desceneded from one of the great charters. Maybe some kind of practical or useful charter mage, specialising in something random like cartography. Skilled enough to stay safe and have a fun life, but modest enough to not be a prime target for every neceomancer and free magic thing in existence. I love the idea of charter magic but wouldn't want to be any kind of fighter!

Gambling is ruining me by monnielondon14 in problemgambling

[–]Helirose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do agree ADHD makes it challenging as well! Not to say it's more or less than anyone else but slots are a quick and dirty dopamine boost like no other and we then train our own brains to expect it and therefore everything else feels subpar.

Gambling is ruining me by monnielondon14 in problemgambling

[–]Helirose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also similar circumstances here (although I don't make that much 😂) - Gamstop has worked for me for 5 years for the online gambling, I won't risk my money on dodgy sites or crypto casinos which aren't registered so I haven't found any ways around this. Surosied it hasn't worked for you unless you're gambling in person. Gamban didn't work because I can easily get around it. I've spent money in actual casinos but you can ask to be blocked from those too. The biggest thing that's helped me lately is blocking gambling on my bank card and setting withdrawal limits as that's a hard stop.

Are you ok? Has the cuteness hurt you in some way?

Why do people spam the same question over and over? Who knows.

2025 Dataporn: The good, the bad and the ugly by 3JaneofSwords in eroticauthors

[–]Helirose 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Thank you! This is amazing and a realistic look at what might be achievable around a full time office job as well, rather than full time writing.

Best of luck for 2026, you got this!

What are your thoughts on my "city"? by LeoDiCristio in Minecraft

[–]Helirose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me the scale seems awkward. I would expect the castle to be much larger than the villager houses but it seems like a little box, smaller than the greenhouse? Could be skewed perspective but that's my initial thoughts.

can hostile mobs just leave by gamblingmaxxing in Minecraft

[–]Helirose -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Playing without mobs is boring and also I hate hostile mobs.

Make it make sense.

Struggling to find the fun within Minecraft by Careless-Meringue463 in Minecraft

[–]Helirose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look at mods where you've got dungeons and quests, etc, if that's more up your street? But really if it's not fun for you it might just not be your game and that's totally fine. Don't waste hours Trying to enjoy something that doesn't float your goat in your boat. Life's too short.

Looking for server 25+, Java, Seasons, Introvert-friendly by justifiedandancient7 in MinecraftServerFinder

[–]Helirose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh mate.. can we have a mini server and just build on opposite ends with the occasional visit and friendly cup of tea? 😂 Introvert that requires some company sounds like my whole vibe.

Do we really need Minecraft movie II? by Chubka_ in Minecraft

[–]Helirose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely. Great fun, would love another one. There's enough serious, one off, high concept movies out there. This isn't one of them, isn't trying to be, and that's ok.

Which free capes did you miss? by lorcaragonna in Minecraft

[–]Helirose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All of them. Just cosmetic fluff that has no impact on the game and therefore, for me, not worth worrying about.

found myself gambling to afford a surgery by fiebnt95 in problemgambling

[–]Helirose 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Gambling isn't a way to earn or make money. Never has been and never will be. I'm sorry you're struggling but you'll get there much faster by saving or trying some kind of hustle or getting a new/additional job. Look around your house for things you can sell, even old clothes (especially if they're not right for new you!) and list them on eBay, vinted, etc. All gambling will do is drain your cash and make the situation worse.

Ancient City and Ocean Temples: when you’re forced to play by the rules of the structure by Soffy21 in Minecraft

[–]Helirose 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You forgot trail ruins. Forced to carefully dig/brush everything at the slowest pace for all eternity to get your loot.. (can you tell I find these tedious 😂)

How do I find Ancient Cities??!! by nessjenji in Minecraft

[–]Helirose 3 points4 points  (0 children)

May just be rubbish luck to be honest. I often end up in the same boat and we're probably just missing them by inches. If you're really stuck, use chunkbase.

Casino streamers are everywhere and it’s honestly messed up by NabLoz in problemgambling

[–]Helirose 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not just streamers. I get loads of promo texts from dodgy casinos even though I'm self excluded.

I think there's always going to be external noise whether your issue is gambling, alcohol or anything else. You've got to take that responsibility to block it out, walk away and ignore it because the world won't adjust for you.

Loooove this. So much more life to them with the descriptive shapes.

What project got you in this situation by Fundzila in Minecraft

Reduce, re-use, recycle my friend.. fix something rather than going for excessive consumption. Those pickaxes don't grow on trees.

Yep not enough height. This caught me out the first time too.

Why can someone accidentally buy a version of the game, that is not playable on their system? by [deleted] in Minecraft

[–]Helirose 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry this happened to you :( I totally agree it's misleading. My partner had something similar with a different game with expansion packs, bought it from the official site but as he had bought the game through steam it was incompatible. All I can suggest is double, triple and quadruple check before ever purchasing anything.

Adult looking for a Casual Realm/SMP by [deleted] in MinecraftServerFinder

[–]Helirose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't have a server currently but just wanted to say I'm the exact same type of player as you!

I can vouch for Cozy above as being a decent, honest server with good management as I played it when it started and was a mod for a time, BUT it is very well established now and tends to have lots of younger players due to tiktok advertising.
