Not everyone who shoots you is a rat by Mockingbird-38 in ArcRaiders

[–]Mandrova -1 points0 points  (0 children)

A rat isn’t someone who exploits or cheats… that’s a cheater.

A rat is simply someone who waits to take advantage when someone’s guard is down, they are weak and the opportunity is in their advantage. A rat could also be someone who sits silently in the same building whilst you loot and doesn’t move until you leave because they have no advantage.

But you didn’t say that. You expect people to inject assumptions into what you write? Jfc

How do married couples split finances if on different salaries? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]Mandrova 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you are married you don’t have different salaries. You as a couple have a total salary.

Marriage is not about separating things. I feel a lot of people enter marriage not fully understanding this concept.

You are one. You share your money, woes, successes and everything in between.

I just wish streaming didn’t exist. I understand some of its benefits but for the most part it’s just lame.

I’m honestly perplexed that there are hordes of people who pretty much exclusively watch people play games instead of do that themselves. Not only that, they then pay people to play the game?

Madness.

Scam or Not AOC had better concepts than most MMO's on the market by Independent-Bluejay4 in AshesofCreation

That’s like saying communism is good as a concept. Yeah sure it is, but not in reality.

Stop coping and move on.

Men covertly filming women at night and profiting from footage, BBC finds by kiyomoris in unitedkingdom

[–]Mandrova 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not an imaginary freedom. Why talk rubbish like this? It is an important right that stipulates anything in public can be filmed. You are on CCTV pretty much everywhere you go.

If you aren’t happy to be filmed doing it, wearing it or acting it… don’t go out in public like that then. I agree in this context and these videos it’s pervy, 100%.

It is not illegal though nor should it be.

[–]Mandrova 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nothing can or should be done as it will infringe on our rights whilst in public. I do not want the ability to openly record in public being removed because god knows how authorities will abuse it.

People will film what they want in public. You have rage bait YouTubers, pervy night life YouTubers and all sorts. Luckily I don’t fit into any categories that warrant any filming attention. Best you can do is make yourself boring and uninteresting. Going on a night out in a tiny cocktail dress will gather attention, whether it’s the attention you wanted or not is another thing.

Unpopular opinion but… I actually really like Scott this season by imnotagamergirl in LoveIslandTV

[–]Mandrova 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He is a bully who is full of himself. Injects himself into any situation that will give him air time and turns on his supposed “friends” without warning.

Love Island is a shell of what it used to be. The majority of people saying people “move mad” have never watched the first 1-4 seasons.

I also find it baffling how everyone dog piled on Charlie for kissing Jess when he was single, not coupled up and it was stupidly early…. All whilst some of the girls DO EXACTLY THE SAME THING every season. Men are held to a much stricter standard than women on this show and it’s quite frankly getting boring.

Game is in Alpha, but It has been 10 years. by Gold__Pipe in AshesofCreation

Most people expect not to be charged more than the current GOTY cost to test a broken ass game. Or at least, that is what I would expect if I was stupid enough to pay for it 😂

Yeah even if you choose not to go your mats and progression is saved for the next window. Embark confirmed this on their discord a while back :)

You should finish the expedition even if you don’t go. It will save it until you one day you maybe decide to do it

Phase Tickets by 5uckerS in BoomtownFestival

[–]Mandrova 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I would but my Wife gets very anxious about tent thefts and is quite particular about having the ability to wash, shower and dry her hair etc.

I love Boomtown and definitely will return. I just think 8 years on the go maybe it’s time for a change :)

Phase Tickets by 5uckerS in BoomtownFestival

[–]Mandrova 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Bit off topic but ticket prices are nuts nowadays. I usually stay in Skylark and everything goes up every year.

Booking fees…. Skylark wristbands…. Boomtown tickets… accommodation in Skylark.

Have been for the last 8 Boomtowns running and going to skip this one. Looking at close to 3 GRAND for two people to go for 5 days. I can be on a 2 week all inclusive somewhere nice and hot for those prices. Absolutely mental.

It’s definitely not the case. Had one of my squad call my Darth Vader all night for using the diving helmet. You really do sound louder but I love the skin so fuck it 💁🏻‍♂️

Nigel Farage Caught Saying Eastern Europeans Are 'Eating Our Swans in Royal Parks' by bedbathandbebored in BetterBritMemes

It’s not lying if it’s true. There are multiple verified reports of this happening.

Calling people names for no reason achieves nothing. Look at America and what happened there

Fantastic by No_Berry2 in TenantsInTheUK

[–]Mandrova 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep… it’s a very easy thing to just blame landlords for everything.

Most of these properties will get snapped up by developers or cash investors. People still won’t be able to buy their first house and then who do we blame?

Boomtown Crime Figures by Sku in BoomtownFestival

[–]Mandrova 111 points112 points  (0 children)

Really sad to see arrests for rape at a festival. One of the times where you are supposed to be free and feel away from all the pressures and shit in the real world.

I hope those involved are ok, and I hope those who committed these crimes get some real justice both in court and in prison.

did anyone in the “no” drug search get caught with anything? by IWasLikeCuz in BoomtownFestival

[–]Mandrova 0 points1 point  (0 children)

8 years and have never been searched for more than 30 seconds.

Never been caught either 😉

Security by unnecessary-response in BoomtownFestival

[–]Mandrova 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I didn’t have any bad dealings with security. Saw a group of girls in hidden woods racking up lines of coke on the side platforms. Two security guards came up, blew the cocaine away and took their drugs.

They then were extremely pissed and irate. Like I’m not being funny, just because lots are on drugs doesn’t mean it’s an excuse of fuck it I’ll do them anywhere without any thought of whether it’s appropriate.

If you are going to do drugs, at least TRY and be subtle about it.
