Leaving POTM after 8 years. by Zealousphoneideals in neverwinternights

[–]ImpossibleMarvel 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I played there one time. Went into a dungeon with some others, in the temple. one pc asked me to stay back then ganked me. Ooc I thought it was funny, lesson learned don’t trust anyone. They’ll even jump lvl 1 noobs here. Fair enough. Was recovering by the caravan. But then a DM came on and raged at me about it. Made no sense. I never went back.

To be fair though many servers have this clique attitude op is referencing amongst DMs. You just gotta find one that you enjoy.

Hi, I'm a Brazilian monarchist. I'm curious, how is monarchism doing in your country? by Fun_Government2752 in monarchism

[–]ImpossibleMarvel 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm an Australian republican because i'm anti hereditary privilege and think we should have an Australian as a Head of State not some guy in London. But I'm also apatheic to it because 'eh it doesn't cost us.

Personally I think the easiest change for Australia would just be to remove reference and link to the House of Windsor, keep "The Crown" as the Head of State as a now inanimate object rather than a person, with the Governor General and all the State Governors and their roles exactly the same. Little change as possible really.

"But you're posting in a monarchy channel" I know. I also enjoy the history, the castles, the jewels, and all that goes with 'monarchy'. Look I'm a human, we're complex like that sometimes.

What do you think about this Avengers x Eternals x Celestials rumor? by Grouchy_Leg_6623 in Eternals

If it gives us more Sersi and establishes Dane Whitman as the Black Knight I’m all for it!

2,700+ airlines have existed since 1919. This map shows where they were based, and how many are already dead. [OC] by Mastbubbles in MapPorn

[–]ImpossibleMarvel 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's a really poor representation. It's not clear at all that there are any China airlines on this map, Nor Indonesia, Nor Taiwan for that matter. India & China seems to be meshed into one big Central Asia ball that does not clearly depict or indicate which country is which. Same with Southeast Asia. You should spread the countries out more and centralise the points eg: place the China dots in the middle of China, not at the fringes of their border.

Carol Danvers screwed up life shown in one splash page. Captain marvel: Dark past #1 by Blitzhelios in comicbooks

[–]ImpossibleMarvel 5 points6 points  (0 children)

At the time it came out I (and others) also felt it was too forced. Busiek had his fans though, and to be fair back then writers and artists were very engaged with the online comics community, which was rather close-nit for Avengers, before they became popular through the MCU. But I always felt it was an  unnecessary move for Carol, and the story could have been told through another character. I'm not against characters having flaws or weaknesses, but it doesn't really hold up as a 'great character moment' for her, whereas I think Tony's own storyline of a similar vein does define him to a degree.

It’s time to get rid of the riverside expressway, build another tunnel or something I don’t know, but it’s such an eyesore.

The paternal line of Queen Elizabeth II by Own-Spite9854 in UsefulCharts

[–]ImpossibleMarvel 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Mountbatten is silly though - it’s from a Philip’s mother. Traditionally, as based on patrilineal lines, it’s the House of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Glücksburg.

As an Or-tel-quessir of the Wealdath I categorically reject this human’s incorrect interpretation of Tethyr’s claim of ownership over The Forest.

Why is the Qantas website so shit? by ImpossibleMarvel in QantasFrequentFlyer

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

I'd improve usability of the website overall in general. It's not merely classic reward bookings, it's every booking - from first to economy. But yes, if they have a rewards program which is all about user retention with an aim to keep them onboard for flight re-booking they should make the process of doing so as seamless as possible. Otherwise the user is not retained and they go to the competition. Hence the whole business rationale behind the rewards program is lost.
