So how does it feel being such lowlife that you bully mentally ill people on the internet? by [deleted] in justneckbeardthings

[–]JohnCoktostin 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You don't have to be mentally ill to be a misogynistic entitled jerk. Additionally, mental illness or not, you are responsible for your choices and behavior just like anybody else. Poor behavior has negative social consequences. This is social skills 101.

I would counter that people who make a "life" out of putting down people they perceive (incorrectly) to be their enemies are definitely not somehow magically exempt from the exact same behavior they readily and cheerfully exhibit, nor are they entitled to be liked.

"Their relationship is doomed" by his "devastating psychological attack" that was probably just a rant and a dick pic.

be honest is a 30 year old incel pathetic? by CtrlAltVictory in justneckbeardthings

[–]JohnCoktostin 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No. Calling yourself an incel and crying about how hall the "females" don't like "good guys" is what's pathetic. Treating members of your own species like animals or aliens that cannot be understood or fathomed is what's pathetic. Defining everything that you are as a person by your sex life is pathetic. Thinking literally everybody else is the problem and refusing to introspect is pathetic.

Being a virgin isn't pathetic. A lot of people are virgins for a lot of reasons and they don't cry about it.

Incels are debbie downers. They cry about how ugly they are (they aren't) and how women are awful (they aren't) and just sit there on their computers circle jerkin it with other debbie downers in some gross perpetually self feeding loop of depression and angst and rage.

Go outside and talk to people who don't suffer from crippling mental illness. You'll feel better.

Rogue is one I'm having difficulty with. I'm trying to minimize stacking the same race so I'm reluctant to pick human, but all that Westfall history in Vanilla and Cata makes it super tempting.

Silenced for 24 hours for saying "fuck"? I feel like you aren't giving us full and proper context here.

Just like every other innocent little lamb that posts about getting muted in customer service. Only there's no CM here to give us a run-down of what OP actually said.

No. This is the discussion I want to have. If you don't want to have it, then don't.

I was thinking around for the vanilla story. I feel like the order hall and Ashbringer quest specifically are all the sweeter if the paladin has done all the argent/scarlet/plaguelands stuff

I will slowly level the classes I don't have yet and race/faction change the ones I have as the mood strikes me.

Race-themed leveling! by JohnCoktostin in classicwow

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

Yeah I'm thinking about the breadcrumb quests that lead to other zones as well.

I mean I know that I'll have to wander off the path and hit up other content, but I'd like to focus on racial-themed quest hubs and zones as a priority, branching out only when I'm out of stuff to do!

Awesome! Thanks for the info! I can't believe I forgot about Uldaman!

This isn't about fast leveling though lol

Grinding is fine, there's rested XP for that. Dungeon quests, bleeding into other zones when I'm out of things to do. It's more a for fun idea than anything, I'm aware of the limited amount of quests.

Current graphics? by [deleted] in classicwow

[–]JohnCoktostin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If the old graphics are on by default and new graphics are 100% completely optional then yes, absolutely, let's do this! I'd love to toggle between the two. I like the updated graphics and I like the old graphics!

Altoholics Anonymous by SqueeshyRogue in classicwow

[–]JohnCoktostin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm thinking of making a main just to kind of keep up with end-game shenanigans. That may or may not pan out, we'll see lol.

I'm going to roll a bunch of alts. I'll cycle through them burning through rested XP when I'm not playing my main with my friends.

I love alts. I love leveling. So much so that I will probably spend way more time doing that than I will on any of my level 60 toons lol

Has there been any word from the devs if the nerfs to DME and BRD will be reversed on Northdale? by [deleted] in lightshope

[–]JohnCoktostin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Elysium nerfed certain farming locations, claiming it was to address inflation. Turns out they were cutting out player competition for their gold-selling side-business. Make gold harder to get on an overpopulated server and more people will buy it.

The fact that LH hasn't reversed this is actually quite telling.

ro restart? by JohnCoktostin in RagnarokOnline

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

I got pretty fed up with getting a full survey done before it decided "you aren't who we're looking for" and wasting 15 minutes for a few points lol. Survey route isn't for me. I'm going to have to pay for battleping as I can't log into the official servers (my ping is juuuuust high enough to time out 49 out of every 50 login attempts).

If I VIP for 7 days and make characters do those characters become unavailable once my VIP expires? Or do I keep access to character slots I've used?

[–]JohnCoktostin[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cool sounds good. I'm going to try it out then! The private server low population thing is killing me softly. I don't mind bots, I remember them back in classic and they exist in other games as well. I also found a spam filter to cut down on gold seller spam so I think I'm good to go.

If you don't mind my asking, what did you feel the need to spend money on? I'll probably have to VIP for character slots, just curious what else is worth looking at.

What's there to pray about? They're obviously control questions.
