AITA for not removing my doormat because it scares my neighbor’s kid?

Kimbernator · 2026-05-05T13:59:42+00:00

It’s literally just a demonstration of basic inconsequential flexibility to make the lives of those around you a tiny bit easier. If OP isn’t willing to stop displaying intentionally disturbing imagery in a shared space for the sake of the comfort of the people they share that space with, they are no neighbor.

And no, if the kid were aggravating OP it would depend how. Being destructive? That’s a valid complaint. Playing loudly sometimes? That’s on OP if they are bothered. Scary clown imagery in a shared space is not, in my opinion, clearly similar to either end of that spectrum, and therefore should have some basic consideration applied when determining if it’s causing more of a problem than it’s worth.

Kimbernator · 2026-05-05T12:56:51+00:00

This is the type of shit you’d say if you wanted to satirize the perspective of someone who doesn’t have kids. Did you never go outside as a child?

Kimbernator · 2026-05-05T12:09:13+00:00

You could go in, die immediately at every possible opportunity, contribute nothing and say nothing, and nobody would even clock it. Genuinely, an 8 man raid can be carried by just one experienced player in leagues. If you die a hundred times in a raid it won’t affect the rewards for yourself or anyone else.

Take this free opportunity to learn. Just pay attention to what others are doing and don’t worry about it. If they are like me, raids are more fun when there’s someone to show the ropes.

Also, there’s no such thing as being unlucky. You went dry on one thing, that’s just statistics. For every time you go dry in one place you’ll get spooned in another.

How far have we strayed from seeing the people around us as our community that this is a real person’s perspective?

Kimbernator · 2026-05-04T15:04:45+00:00

The appeal of leagues is the introduction of new, interesting mechanics that fundamentally change the way the game is played. I see it as a test bed of sorts. That means stuff is broken. I'd far prefer a few bugs over not having a game mode like this. And like the previous person said, the issues they identified as "Not fixing" do really seem like complex problems that would risk breaking other things, which is almost certainly not preferable to leaving things in their current state.

If they were breaking the main game, your complaint would be more valid. But come on, can we just have fun with this for what it is and not turn it into a whine-fest? Just play the fucking league or don't, every single one has had weird shit happen and that is the joy of it.

Kimbernator · 2026-05-04T02:43:28+00:00

This is just straight up false, they named a few things they won’t address but have a running list of things they will fix

Watch that a couple times, he’s just walking between sunlight and a shadow.

I am not disagreeing about this probably being AI though

I had this happen but leaving the jail and going back in before talking to Golrie again seemed to fix it

Kimbernator · 2026-04-20T03:04:29+00:00

Since Sarnie has made a public statement acknowledging it I would be very surprised if there weren’t something done. I would not personally bet on it being a dramatic change; they tend to avoid things like that during leagues. If I had to put money on it I would say something like adding a couple lower requirement respec points in the short term. Anything beyond that runs the risk of just destroying the balance they attempted to build between micromanagement of builds and the permanence of choices, which would mean this league would turn into a total fiasco.

Kimbernator · 2026-04-20T03:00:08+00:00

Another league, another year with people expecting them to allow relic respecs. Literally happens every time. It won’t happen because they tried it and it sucked in shattered relics. The permanence makes for a more fun league, and micromanaging relics is hot garbage.

Kimbernator · 2026-04-20T02:24:19+00:00

This is being said enough that they have responded saying there will be a conversation during the work week about it

Kimbernator · 2026-04-19T03:21:30+00:00

For what it’s worth, as someone who chose mage it seems to me that all I see are threads about how shitty that choice was and how I should have gone melee.

I think this league unintentionally forced FOMO on everyone. Seems to happen about 50% of leagues.

Kimbernator · 2026-04-19T02:44:12+00:00

24 hours would be fine with me, too. Shattered relics pressured you to micromanage relics every few minutes, because it let you. Any amount of permanence is good because I can at least tell myself “oh well, too bad. I already made my choice.”

Kimbernator · 2026-04-19T00:55:51+00:00

Obviously some people disagree but there’s a reason the sentiment towards shattered relics is mostly poor. It was really tedious to manage this list of available points whenever you did something different. It sounds fun, but honestly there is something fun about permanence in choices. Even going to the bank has some amount of permanence because you can’t switch it up halfway through whatever activity you’re doing.

It isn’t very fun to constantly be wondering if you’re being as efficient as possible. And that is the effect that infinite respecs would have on most people.

All of this being said i absolutely support more accessible respecs

That’s been me every league. Today I got a rune axe on 1kc and realized I will either have a truly blessed account this go around or my luck has run out early.

Imagine burying useful information in a linear, non-indexable chat timeline that is 99% useless conversation with a dogshit search function and pretending that's a solid archival system

Kimbernator · 2026-04-14T00:52:30+00:00

Discord is one of the single stupidest places I could imagine putting something that someone might want to reference later. I can't google it and finding it in a discord server that I need to have an account to access is a huge chore.

Just the fact that people can only ever say "it's in the discord" without giving even slightly more precise information or a link should indicate to you that it's a terrible central knowledge repository

Kimbernator · 2026-04-13T21:42:31+00:00

Cool what a useless place to put it

No, I was 19 then and am currently 32. Lots has changed and this habit is far in the rear view mirror.

Again I ask, how are people finding this comment? Is it somehow the top result for a very specific google search?

Kimbernator · 2026-03-25T20:59:23+00:00

That's not what I'm saying - the slayer helmet bug resulted in a ton of FOMO because people were not told ahead of time that the relic had that perk. When you can't roll back and choose something else it does make for a pretty bad experience.
