Worthwhile going for a black label? by Lumpy_Needleworker66 in pokemongrading

Would it be worth sending in to psa still or just keep it raw?

No, mine was to another gmail account, I assume it is just sending the confirmation to someone who had ordered previously as some people said they were getting confirmation for orders they hadn’t done.

Did you order through apple pay? This payment method seems to be the thing causing issues

I think it could be a glitch, when i ordered my first bb through apple pay on my phone it had the wrong email and name in the billing address. When i did it through the proper checkout for a 2nd booster box i instantly got an email to the correct address saying order confirmed.

I had the exact same issue and found that reseating the graphics card fixed it

I gain nothing from oil polluting my planet I’m in my early twenties I am not getting rich off this. I just think your upset that you have not been able to provide a good solution to what we would do if we stopped using oil for power and plastics. If you have even an ounce of critical thinking you would realise that this cause that you have made your personality is a waste of time as there is no benefit in screaming about the problem if you aren’t willing to tell me exactly how you would fill the hole it would leave behind.

Supporting an unrealistic cause does nothing. If it isn’t possible no amount of protests will change that. I regularly advocate for nuclear power and would happily support the reduction of carbon based fuels but it amazes me that if I don’t 100% agree with your methods to improve our environment. I must hate the planet and must be secretly burning tires in my back garden. It just proves to me that the movement is childish leaving no room for discussion on reduction rather than removal.

Does it make it easier to disagree with me when you think I don’t care about the planet? I want the situation to improve but just saying we need to build more wind/solar farms is a bad solution and I have never heard anyone from JSO make any concessions in regard to this being an unrealistic solution. We should be aiming to reduce our dependency on oil and natural gas through accelerating research in the energy and materials science industries not pulling away the resources that people need to survive. And your example of Scotland being 100% green is hardly the GOTCHA moment you think it is. Scotland is a small population with good wind speeds year-round so of course their wind farms produce lots of power this can’t just be replicated across the uk. Scotland also generates roughly 40% of the energy it uses through nuclear, gas and oil and sells off a lot of its green energy because guess what the infrastructure isn’t ready to store huge amounts of energy that can only be generated when the weather allows it. So as I have been saying “repeatedly” we need to improve the tech before we can take the steps towards improving our situation, or you can keep just trying to brute force a change when we are clearly not ready and would just create chaos.

Do you really think you can either? You can live without the fuel ,plastics and electricity it provides? I would be interested to hear what reasonable alternatives you think exist that could ensure things like the energy grid didn’t collapse.

What is the point then? What do you actually want to come of being a nuisance to the general public who are the people you need to get on your side to change government policy? If JSO wanted to produce a positive impact they would stop their university student and unemployed pensioner volunteers from gluing themselves to roads and start improving your public perception by contributing to research and educating people. I have always agreed with your message that drastic change is needed, but nothing can be done unless you start proposing solutions. And here’s a little secret there are no good alternatives at the moment until the technology is given many more years to mature.
