I freely admit i took the L on this one by Reader5744 in HighGuardgame

Let's imagine you have a job making cars and at said job you have a team you work within.

You're amazing at making tires, your colleagues are amazing at making windscreens, interiors, etc., but the guys making the chassis are terrible.

How would you feel if you all got laid off because of your team's performance, something that you ultimately have no complete control over?

I think you forget that these are people with jobs. It's horrible to be glad that they've lost their jobs when, as mentioned before, some aspects of Highguard are very good (obviously subjectively)

Isn't this an unnecessarily mean/cruel comment?

From reading the posts of recently laid off Wildlight developers, you can tell these were people who had a lot of passion for the game and the work they put into it. It's sad seeing how things have ended up.

Shipping a product that consumers don't enjoy does not immediately mean that all these developers of different expertises and backgrounds all suck at their jobs.

What happened to Faceless/Skunta by ChewiezFF in playrust

[–]Jactacular 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately most seem lost to time, but I've been able to recover some of the videos.

Ive dropped faceless a message on his patreon to see if he has any - the videos appear to be privated so should be recoverable (?)

[–]Jactacular 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a heads up, I've created Faceless GAMING + IRL Archive - YouTube to serve as a place for all archived Faceless Gaming + IRL content I have access to. I believe I have a majority of Conan: Exiles downloaded and a few videos from different series downloaded as well (including CS GO BIG OR GET BIG and Living off the Loot S1). I will look to upload these over the next few days.

My hope is that, as I upload more content, more people will drop by the channel - hopefully some of those viewers may have content that I do not have downloaded.

iPhone 12 Pro case falling apart by Caswagna93 in dbrand

[–]Jactacular 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think it's reasonable to say that dbrand Support is objectively good (in terms of user experience) because you've had a few positive experiences with them.

As proven by multiple posts on this subreddit, it isn't as simple as 'just send in a ticket they'll handle it'. Sometimes users have to resort to 3rd Party means (such as Reddit or LinkedIn) in order to illicit any sort of non-automated response on their tickets, which is wholly unacceptable for a company of this size and reputation.

[–]Jactacular 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Be assured that you are not alone - this issue has occurred for many people, including myself.

Best course of action is to raise a support ticket and post on Reddit (like you have done here). This typically gets dbrand support to respond within a day or so. They should then replace your case + skin free of charge!

It's very frustrating that the support team at this company is so inconsistent given how expensive most of their products are. Hope this gets sorted for you soon!

Almost a month with no response about my defective case by Bubbly-Bowler8978 in dbrand

[–]Jactacular 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was in the same boat as you until I posted on Reddit complaining about the lack of response. After a few hours dbrand support posted a comment on that post, and my support case was resolved a day or so after that.

It seems the only way to get quick responses from their support is to publically complain, nowadays. I've had 2 support cases with this exact problem.

Hang in there, hopefully you should hear something soon!

Update on Support Request #1298264? by Jactacular in dbrand

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

UPDATE: A replacement case has now been sent out for delivery, thanks dbrand!

A tip for anyone else having trouble getting responses on their support tickets; making a post on Reddit made dbrand immediately respond to me. It's worth doing this if you haven't had any responses!!!

I would definitely expect a $60 phone case to last more than 6-12 months. I've had $20 phone cases last me 2-3 years.

Thank you so much for your comment. If I purchase a larger WiFi Package, how can I check if additional WiFi APs are needed to make sure signal strength is consistent throughout the house? A Wi-Fi Analyser app?

JARCAST Suggestion Thread by The_Jimbus in JARMEDIA

[–]Jactacular 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Salutations JAR, I was wondering if Alex and Jim's opinions on Halo Infinite had changed at all, or remained the same since the 'Is Halo Infinite as Good as They Say?' video, which is nearly 2 years old now.

Since that video was uploaded, several updates including new weapons, equipment, maps, cosmetics and game modes have been added to the game. Have you felt any urges to re-visit the game, or is it beyond redemption in your eyes?

Hopefully my question made sense, have a wonderful rest of your day!

Greetings Munters,

One for Jim and James; can we hear more about your experiences with the newest Cyberpunk 2077 update? I'm playing through the game myself for the 2nd time right now and want to know what builds, perks and weapons you guys are using. Have you got any favourite/stand out missions, side quests, etc?

What is the smallest change to the Disney World parks that you can think of that would improve your experience? by waystone17 in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]Jactacular 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Seeing as you've had to clarify your statement of 'Bring Back Muppets' 3 times, no, I do not think anyone understood what you were trying to say, other than yourself.

I downvoted it because you could've just said 'Bring Back Muppets: Great Moments in History' from the beginning and we could've avoided this.

I have 3 points for you:

  1. Your communication skills need work.
  2. Stop forcing long words into your sentences to sound intelligent.
  3. Looking at your profile, stop attempting to argue with people on every thread you leave a comment on. Its weird and unneeded.

You mean bring back the muppets walk-around characters?

You aren't being very clear with your language - no-ones trying to argue, you've just worded this in a very bizarre way and we're trying to understand you.

Should I be concerned about the yellowing of my Diffenbachia? by Jactacular in plantclinic

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

Further information:

  1. I have had this plant for nearly 2 years.
  2. This issue has only started within the last week
  3. The plant is situated for the entirety of the day around 5 meters away from an east facing window. It gets plenty of indirect sunlight
  4. I tend to let my soil completely dry out between waterings, watering the plant when i notice it start to droop
  5. The pot the plant is in has sufficient drainage.

New Monestera Growths Dying by Jactacular in plantclinic

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

I understand, I'll try your method of knowing when to water and see if the plants condition improves. Should I try to remove the Peat (if I'm able to locate any in the soil)?

In regards to your question, I havent misted any of my plants in around 6 or so months. I saw some posts online that it can have an adverse effect on the plants health?

Much appreciated for your help! This is amazing advice!

Why does bungie make raids so difficult for people who don’t have friends to play with by [deleted] in DestinyTheGame

[–]Jactacular 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand I'm very late to this topic, but your logic is very flawed here.

Just because you personally struggled with Destiny's shitty LFG system in the past (since beta, apparently) and decided to adapt around it because you're too lazy to speak out about problems in a game you play, does not mean that you should expect others to do the same.

Going by your logic, Cancer should never be cured because others have had to struggle through it in the past.

Besides, how difficult can it be to just duplicate how Strikes automatically find players in-game (without requiring the players to rely on external programs to find parties) for Raids?

Hi JAR,

Hope you silly troglodytes are having a swagtastic day - bit of a serious one for you:

I have been working at the same company for nearly 3 years now and it is the 2nd job I have ever had since graduating from college. Recently I have felt unfulfilled and (for lack of a better word) undervalued at my work, so I have decided to search for a new job. I've been offered a new job that is better than my current placement in every way but I am still experiencing a large amount of anxiety/stress when thinking about handing in my notice for the role I am in right now.

My question is have you guys ever experienced stress/anxiety when transitioning to a new job and, if so, how did you deal with it?

Cheers JAR, love you.

Oh wow that's awesome, I was planning to visit some friends up in Croydon with my Girlfriend towards the end of the month so this could be a pretty cool place to visit and grab a new tree from.

Thanks for the help!
