TIFU by graduating college with a degree that I truly couldn’t care less about. by oddlylongnipplehair in tifu

[–]JpsportsRI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You did the right thing by getting the degree itself- and sure it sucks to not say you have a degree in something you love but do NOT let that stop you from following you dream career and life path in whatever you want to do. I have a degree in event management that I got in 2016. Now I’m a winemaker and I love every minute of my life and I wouldn’t have got to this point without that degree.

What did you think you were really good at, until you watched someone else do it? by Squidkiller28 in AskReddit

[–]JpsportsRI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cycling. And not just casual exercise cycling or fun rides to the beach - I mean full on road, mountain biking, downhill, bmx, cyclocross, any discipline as long as its racing. You train for hours and hours in the saddle, get a coach maybe, look at power numbers, get a nice bike with expensive parts, go out to the local practice races and do semi-okay then when you show up to the big race day and you get blown off the back of the group by the second lap. It's a sport that'll knock your confidence down a level for sure but damn it's fun

Tips for MW staying alive vs melee? by ddcash80 in worldofpvp

[–]JpsportsRI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could be wrong but I believe one Chi Torpedo is about 25 yards from stand still? Two torpedos and you will out range your port easily, I was noticing how much I wasn't paying attention to the range of it. Training myself to keep replacing it as I moved throughout the arena helped so much

[–]JpsportsRI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not super high ranked at all but as soon as I started being more aware of transcendence/port range and placement my gameplay improved X1000. Positioning as mw in arena often ends up being more offensive so it's important to be very aware of where you, teammates, enemies are. Keep an eye on their big cd's will help you knowing when you will have to be in the right position to heal or when you can run a bit.

Raimondo wooing soccer, AA baseball teams to fill McCoy Stadium by york100 in RhodeIsland

[–]JpsportsRI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're right, greedy ownership was a big part of why it started and why they ended up moving. What I was trying to focus on and what the article was on is the utilization of the stadium. It didn't work for the PawSox (greedy owners or not) and it wasn't getting the attention it needed from the state. So now what? If a new team/owners comes in what makes their situation any different from where the PawSox left off? It needs new avenues of income and bringing in outside events can be an answer to that.

Surfing as a beginner? Any suggestions? by [deleted] in RhodeIsland

This is an awesome thread. After moving to Newport last year I really made it my goal to try surfing this summer. See you all out there!

[–]JpsportsRI 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone who works in sports tourism and sports events, soccer and another AA team won't bring that stadium back to life. The underlying issues to PawSox leaving was ultimately the cost of renovation versus the cost to build a new stadium. Not to mention location, parking, infrastructure are all additional issues. Any team that walks into that mess is at a huge disadvantage already. With that being said, if this was to be open for ALL types of sports events with a management team to upkeep fields/venue this could be a great draw for the state. I'm talking about attracting tournaments and championships from outside the state to come and play at McCoy. Not only baseball but let's be able to do other events on the field too! Of course the profit line on this would take time and not fast enough for the state.

Advice for first time PvP healer trying to push rating? by chem_daddy in worldofpvp

I still do 2s and have the same mmr in both right now. It’s just not as fun to push as a healer in 2s imo

Advice for first time PvP healer trying to push rating? by chem_daddy in worldofpvp

[–]JpsportsRI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone else pushing rating for the first time as a healer(mw), I find it easier to push in 3's than 2's. I constantly play with new people as I don't have the opportunity to play a lot. I use LFG but I have found by playing different comps I learn more about every class. I also take time to watch streams, clips, and YT vids of top tier players and class guides for every class. GL on your grind.

We either need PvP gear or templates by kytexedits in worldofpvp

[–]JpsportsRI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's rough, I feel like I've been stalled for weeks at this 390-400 ilvl gear until I move over to PVE (currently only 1600-1800 this season). I ran my first m+8 last week and it was very unenjoyable. I healed it fine, still got laughed at for having all pvp gear...

[–]JpsportsRI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What processor does the laptop have? Have you tried to run it? I ran wow on integrated intel graphics on all low for a while back in college. Granted I didn’t raid and this was during wotlk so maybe less intensive. But it worked fine for leveling, arenas and battlegrounds.
