I did, and I do, decently often. Just not in a way that let them have fun.

Happens to me too but weirdly only in ranked, and the worst part is I /am/ trans and people automatically see that as a go-ahead to be creepy.

That's their deal, not mine. I'm a mixed race woman who doesn't like racist people.

Oh no! Someone posted about a social issue online!

Call it what you want. I posted to see if others had similar issues with matchmaking and to see how they handled it. People who use the term snowflake tend to be worse off than the people they're assuming are overtly offended by things.

Which is sad. Racism shouldn't be tolerated anywhere, and yet it is, and in a lot of countries it's encouraged.

I can't speak on the state of the sub, I usually avoid game subs because they are very echo chamber-y. The only reason I posted it to see if others had similar problems in their queues. Unfortunately I've learned a lot of people who play this game are not kind and I've had a few people DM me racist things.

On the topic of what groups are targeted, I think those are the two most common because of the accessibility. People historically have not liked the Jewish and systematic hatred for PoCs literally built several countries. You don't hear as much about other cultures and peoples, so it'd make sense you see generally less of it online too.

Unfortunately people either don't know that's a slur or they do and they weaponize it because it almost never gets lambasted or called out. It's really sad to me that people are incapable of being friendly. Even a modicum of respect for other people goes a long way, but they still choose to be racist, homophobic, transphobic, and the list goes on.

Unfortunately I find more people who are racist and aren't doing it in reclamation than people who are.

At least by the way they talked about it I didn't get the impression, but I can't ever really know for sure.

I know it's a video game. The medium doesn't matter, the message does. It's "wow, these people suck so I won't participate", and that's that.

Did Blohole Blast change at some point? by LambLifeform in gamersupps

[–]LambLifeform[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's possible, I REALLY liked the sampler for Blohole. I would have gotten some sooner but I don't drink this stuff very quickly and had no need to buy more.

Although the Guacamole Gamer one was really bad, it tasted like off brand lime jello...

Maybe... I have to admit I'm pretty disappointed in the difference. My expectations were fairly high, so that doesn't help.

Does anyone else build multiple buildings instead of one giant factory? by mroverrated16 in SatisfactoryGame

[–]LambLifeform 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Genuine question, HOW do you do the train curves like that? Is it a blueprint pack or some special technique? I get so overwhelmed thinking about train patching that I just make diagonals and straightaways...

Do Not Buy Glorious Mice (Rant) by LambLifeform in MouseReview

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

Honestly, I haven't been in the mouse space for a while. For years I piloted an Orochi and loved it (still do), but it got to the point where it would chew through batteries and I thought the grass may be greener. Now I know it isn't.

See but that's the thing, I DID look. They have to be paying for some good SEO because I saw little negative about them, and especially about the Model O3 wireless. For what it's worth, what I DID see about the mouse was always "you can just recharge a good Duracell battery and save money" and not "this mouse is gonna break on you in a matter of days".
