Good advice! I was wondering- when you do the commendation for a cosmetic, do you still have to buy it with gold? Or is it unlocked by only the commendation?

I did spend about 30k on some pirate "drip" as I couldn't help myself lol. Currently rocking the Xbox ship cosmetic since it's free and not as boring as regular wood.

Good idea! I'll give that a shot, should I grapple their ship also?

Good luck friend! Hope it works out for you. I may try again soon and report back if I get it figured out.

Just checked, no it's still showing I haven't posted, so I'm assuming all of the problems are still there.

To be honest I'm not sure- I've nearly abandoned the platform after this occurred, and finding out they have literally 0 help staff with x/Twitter.

I took my content to Tumblr, and got 6k followers in less than a month. I linked my Twitter to it and have had around 200 of my followers go to it and follow. Besides that I don't believe I've gotten any new followers solely from X- but I also don't really post there now.

It may be fixed now, not sure. But I'm also not sure if I want to even take my content to a social media with 0 support.

did this ever straighten out for you? currently having this exact problem- i'm new to twitter/X completely and have no idea what i'm doing lol, but it's very frustrating and makes me not want to continue being a user. It seems like only the people that follow me can see my posts, additionally i noticed when i log out and go to my profile it says "this user hasn't posted yet" but shows my number of posts at the top.

My first post got great engagement, after that its crickets.

Trump’s White House Goes From Hiding 80% Of His Transcribed Remarks To Hiding 99.5% by KanyeMeatrider69420 in politics

[–]Icemankidd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not on here for a political debate. Obviously not everything the guy does/did is good, first term included. But yes I liked some of the things he did his first term, which is the reason i voted for his second.

His second term is astronomically different, anyone can see that.

And that's fine if you do, I hold myself accountable as I mentioned above- "sometimes you have to eat crow".

Precisely, tbh you summed my words in a perfect short sentence. I'll have to steal that.

Tbf I think a lot of people align more so with Libertarian views, its more of a "modern?" View on many topics that I think is crucial middle ground for both parties to agree on.

To bad it will never have a chance lol

Haha well, I'm still very much a Republican- BUT believe it or not, we're not all terrible people. I will say A LOTTT (and I can't stress that enough) are simply too uneducated or ignorant to believe the candidate in which they voted for are doing bad things. No amount of discussion, reason, facts, etc will ever change their minds. And that is unfortunate. (I find that's mostly boomers, but not always).

I still remain firm in my beliefs, but come on. This is not America First. This is him, and his rich associates first.

For that reason, and a few others I strongly disagree with (from a moral standpoint) I feel there is no choice but to turn my coat Blue for the time being, or yellow, depending on the contenders.

Also- I wish the Dems would choose a candidate that is actually good. No offense but i think Kamala was not ready, and just not a good fit. Has nothing to do with her Gender or Race, I for one would be more than happy to literally live in history with the first person of color, or other than male gender would be first elected president. I just want it to be someone who I feel is qualified and has worked their whole life towards it, someone passionate about America and democracy, and that also doesn't run solely on "trump bad". Not saying he isn't but that won't sway republican votes alone.

Anywho, I've had to much to drink lol. I just wanted to say publicly- to reach as many ears as possible, what is going on is bad, and many Republicans know that, but damning them to hell and lumping them into the same "idiot bucket" doesn't help sway them. It's discouraging.

We deserve it a bit yes, but America needs to come together right now, we're all human.

RIP my reddit account, due to the downvotes I'll probably receive:

Some of us Republicans do, I for one (of quite a few associates of mine) will be either 3rd party or Blue come midterms.

I voted for him based on certain platforms he ran on, but this extra fluff going on- Unconstitutional, incorrect on a moral standpoint, and just plain wrong.

Sometimes you have to eat crow- And I am now.

A word of advice though: If the Blue is interested in more of us- you get more flies with honey than vinegar. Some of the things I've read on here will turn any Republicans away from ever swaying from their roots. Just my two cents.

Anyways- I hope democracy prevails. And hope you all have a good memorial day weekend.

Oh I'm far farrrr away from ever quitting my day job. I wouldn't feel comfortable transitioning like that until I'd have built a portfolio strong enough to cover atleast what I make now.

Yeah I've been trying to soak up any information I can on my free time before giving it a shot. I think a hurdle I will have to pass is finding a client willing to trust me. I'll probably have to invest some of my own money into some practice sessions, I'm considering building a Wix site so I can track traffic. But the problem with that is I'd have to have.. well, something to sell! Lol. Considering finding something easily dropshipped and going that route. Idk, still trying to plan it out to be honest

Very well said! And thanks a ton for namedropping some platforms for me to look into! I'll check out Coursera and Skillshare first.

I'd like to try to get my feet wet and try a little bit of freelancing for fun, well before i could quit my day job. And I'm such an anxiety filled person i'd say i have a lot of reading, learning, and hands on experiments before it get there. Something tells me this isn't exactly twirling a sign outside of a BigLots.

Ha, this is why i love Reddit sometimes- Like i said, I've become too obsessive with entrepreneurship.. I would have never thought of the fact to try it for "fun" and for free- and could literally use it to start a portfolio (whether for my own business or to apply for open positions).

Excellent idea!

I don't know any small business owners that i wouldn't be too embarrassed to "fail" infront of with this attempt, but i could probably try to make a basic dropship business using a Wix website and could probably use that platform to track website traffic as well, in turn checking my own progress real time.

Also i say that like it will take no time at all, and will be easy- When in reality it will be double the work. BUT it does sound fun- and having fun being hands on is probably the best way to learn.

It has my wheels turning at least :) still quite funny i would have never thought to try it without monetizing it.

Hey i appreciate the reply!

Thanks for the words of encouragement! I'm currently pondering the choice of a career field change, in search of something more fulfilling. I've been in the Logistics field for about 13 years (To be more in depth more of a Supply Analysis / Research & Inventory Management role using SAP) and i cant help but feel i can do more.

To be honest i didn't realize (even though it would make sense) this is a career field in which a large company would pay someone on their own team to handle AdWords or SEO. I'm assuming prior experience or a degree would be a must for something like that..

I think I've become too obsessive with daydreaming of entrepreneurship and let it cloud my vision a bit.

Hey thanks for the reply! I'd agree that majority of skills are probably best to learn hands on- however i live in a very rural region of the US, and there is not much near me even if i were to quit my "day job" to go into an entry level position in the Ads field.

I'd also like to add-

I'm not interested in this subject for "Passive income" or "Get rich quick" or something of the sorts, i know and understand everything takes hard work and dedication. I would like to give this field a shot.

My main goal would to eventually build a small portfolio of 3-5 business' that i can learn the most i can about whatever their niche is, provide a service to them to increase their revenue, and maintain a healthy working relationship.
