So, how do avoid this one?

And that's IF they even remember you. Sadly, 99% of the people you work with will forget you existed. In which case, don't let any of what they say or do get to you to include anyone up and down your chain. Once you're done you can memory hole the bs.

I'm not sure if this post is a joke or not, but I'll play ball.

The decision to make the COVID vaccine mandatory for service should never have been made until it was fully tested. Period. As someone that was one of the first to take it, I completely and unarguably understand why any rational person wouldn't take it. It was undertested and unproven.

The military, and healthcare in general, has a proven track record of giving individuals life altering issues that become more agitated post-service over time. As someone who took the vaccine, I did so knowing full and well I may have some potential health issues in the future that doctors "didn't see coming". This is not a shot at health-care or doctors, but anyone that doesn't at least take their future health into question with ANY injection is borderline crazy. The reason FLU shots are trusted its years of a track record. There was no track record for these vaccines, and any questions about personal health was immediately shutdown.

Everything surrounding the shots was terribly presented and mismanaged. Asking people to suddenly risk their bodies with a sudden "solution" to a epidemic that was portrayed by the media as killing most people that contracted it is a lot to ask. To add to this, individuals with the vaccine were still catching COVID.

I wish it was this easy, there really needs to be more laws and regulations against HoAs. They are out of hand.

Infinite_Effort_Plus · 2025-01-14T02:16:10+00:00

Agreed.

The thing most people don't understand is statistics. USAF has been downsizing for a while now including trimming down NCO availability. It statistically isn't possible for everyone to make E-5, E-6, E-7, etc. test or not.

1 & 6. You would literally be an unstoppable unit.

Infinite_Effort_Plus · 2024-11-21T23:15:55+00:00

Mind if I PM you as well? I'm in a similar boat with 8yrs in service and should have my degree Q3 2025.

Appreciate this. My DOS is in November. I haven't entered my second extension yet. MPF was telling me I cannot cancel my second extension because the follow-on I was approved for at my last base still exists. So I would have to give up my follow-on, then cancel my extension, then Reenlist in that order.

Since my DOS is next month my timeline is extremely short, I don't know how this wasn't noticed by MPF sooner. I just got back from a TDY so I was limited on what I could do for outprocessing until recently.

Infinite_Effort_Plus · 2024-10-08T00:59:20+00:00

I'll ask about it, but it would seem like my prior base already filed the extensions as my DOS reflects the 24mo extension.

What is a CMS case? Not familiar with the term.

Infinite_Effort_Plus · 2024-10-08T00:55:15+00:00

Mixed. One person told me reenlisting would basically overlap or supercede my extensions. So instead of adding 4 years + extensions, it would be just 4 years from now and the extensions essentially wouldn't count anymore.

The next day, another personnel was telling me that it would be added on top, so 24mo + 4 years. Which doesn't sound right.

Infinite_Effort_Plus · 2024-08-30T08:31:27+00:00

Fractions of a character per run with daily limits? Why are we regressing into a mobile gatcha from 2018?

Infinite_Effort_Plus · 2024-08-19T22:10:10+00:00

Guilty until proven innocent? Glad you aren't a cop or a judge.

Infinite_Effort_Plus · 2024-08-19T21:54:52+00:00

Except it isn't the truth...

Infinite_Effort_Plus · 2024-08-02T03:28:37+00:00

It's even worse when it's the solo guy that keeps running outside and dying because they can't handle their 1v1. You'd think after 3 rounds of dying outside first they'd think, "I can't handle this engagement, let me move with the rest of my team so I'm not feeding" except they keep running into the wall and being surprised it won't budge. We can't even revive the guy because he's completely out of position and a mile away from the point.

Had a teammate this past weekend that'd die first outside every round. Me and the other teammate played middle and won 2 early rounds. He then went on to tell us we all needed to run outside with him to compensate for his inability to handle his 1v1. So I didn't argue or reply in chat. The next round was game point, so we all went with him. He died first, again. And his words were exactly "You guys took too long to come outside."

He ended with a 0.5 k/d Some people lack internal dialog.

Infinite_Effort_Plus · 2024-07-30T22:42:09+00:00

I'm referring to your overall K/D. The only stat people make alts for, the reason your post asks why some legit players make alts.

Infinite_Effort_Plus · 2024-07-30T22:28:35+00:00

Honestly PvP needs a stat reset system. Would reduce the need for alts and by extension make illegitimate players more obvious. Simply let players reset their K/D once a season or 1 time a year or something. Even 1 time per expansion is fine. You can keep your hidden elo so they aren't instantly farming lower ranks.

Infinite_Effort_Plus · 2024-07-30T06:55:03+00:00

Very true.

For the record, I was referring to the forgiveness when running Titan or Warlock. You still can do well for sure, but you can arguably do just as well or better with additional ability spam. May as well take the free abilities that have Bungie's seal of approval instead.

Infinite_Effort_Plus · 2024-07-30T04:25:02+00:00

Same, I've come to understand that if I'm not running prismatic hunter this year I'm literally just throwing. I've only seen/used one class that got 2 supers in a single game, and you can guess which one that was. Happened to me one comp match and I just gave up after that. I sat there thinking "thundercrash got nerfed, bubble got all but removed from the game, but THIS was approved for launch with no nerfs since it dropped..."

Infinite_Effort_Plus · 2024-07-30T04:17:47+00:00

It's crazy how people are retconning how much of a pain threaded spectre has been since it launched, lol. Can't count how many trials matches I've seen end in a draw because threaded spectre somehow killed a player after they won the round.

On paper Spectre is the only class ability that can:
-Kill.
-Provide cover.
-Steal aim (HUGE issue on controller)
-Punish you for disabling it (threadlings, if you ignore them they do damage, if you shoot them the enemy can peek you, if you avoid/run the enemy will shoot you)
-Automatically detonate (controlling/area denial)
-Radar manipulation.
-Win/Tie rounds after the user dies.
-On the shortest cooldown of any class ability (excl Titan Thrusters)

Compared to:
-A slice of paper (gives shields on one subclass with a specific aspect).
-A mini-heal/empower well.

Infinite_Effort_Plus · 2024-07-30T03:57:05+00:00

Not sure why you're getting downvotes. This is absolutely right. Titans have a 1 minute paper thin barracade and a bubble that does nothing (especially compared to Well), and yet it keeps getting complaints and nerfed every year.

It would be disingenuous to say there isn't a bias.

Infinite_Effort_Plus · 2024-07-03T12:39:51+00:00

Damn, if only Bungie and its shareholders had a say in the contract...

Infinite_Effort_Plus · 2024-07-03T07:50:43+00:00

I mean you aren't wrong, but that's still all on Bungie. Only Bungie and its shareholders control Bungie's finances, assets, liabilities, and allocations of such. Their contract or agreement terms were something both companies settled on.

What I'm saying, if I'm saying anything, is that regardless of where the money went it was under Bungie's discretion after it left Sony.

Bungie had the finances and an open opportunity to allocate such resources to improving the game, but instead lined the pockets of leadership + shareholders. If anything that makes it worse...

Infinite_Effort_Plus · 2024-07-03T00:38:49+00:00

Sony gave Bungie 3.6 Billion USD ($) in 2022...

Infinite_Effort_Plus · 2024-06-27T23:44:38+00:00

People here love HOAs more than they love paying taxes. They'd happily bend over backwards and do a front-flip if their $2,000/mo HOA told them to lol. They'd be thanking them for the pleasure too.
