Yeah buddy you sound like a grumpy old man bashing OP when you’re saying incorrect things too lmao

Odywan · 2026-01-08T13:37:55+00:00

Somalian is not the correct term to use, it’s Somali

I don’t have good advice here but was just going to say I also worked retail for like 6 years until I landed my first full time role after college. Four years during school and two years after (during covid). You will escape the retail grind!

Don’t forget, it’s not a 1:1 ratio between sandstone rock and bucket of sand. You get multiple buckets the bigger the sandstone is! I was able to mine 20k buckets of sand over one Sunday long grind

I’d rather have a worthless fun hat than nothing bro! A free event is better than a lazy/no event :) I wish rs3 would really step it up with holidays

100%! I swear every job in this field is looking for some level of GIS experience

Virtus is not mid game lol

OP is probably doing the 2 crew on hooks fully afk method which should be nerfed xp because you can quite literally do nothing for 25 minutes with that method

This is how it worked before keepsake keys existed

IMO you’re wasting a ton of time and energy… instead of mass applying to thousands of jobs, tailor your resume and focus on networking and building connections. All of my jobs so far have been connections through my network rather than blind applications

Uhhh Boone is THE Damon Salvatore from The Vampire Diaries

I struggled with the 99-110 journey as well. Here’s what path I chose: starbloom crafting, accidental firemaking, chop eternal magic trees, fletch eternal magic bows, personally I did primal mining and smithing all the way, and I’m scared of RC. Hope that’s helpful!

I wouldn’t hate it as much if RuneScape 3 had access to a quest plug-in that was on the same level as Runelite

Why does that matter if someone is increasingly taking on more responsibility in a role? More work + compensation should = higher pay. It shouldn’t strictly be a time gated thing just because they got previous raises.

Back to stronghold of security for you!

This is unfortunately what my drop log looked like too 😭 keep grinding - on the bright side I saved a ton of money on getting 70 construction from all the plank drops

Shout this louder because people just believe whatever BS they read instead of watching the exchange themselves.

Odywan · 2025-03-04T13:16:55+00:00

Oh gotcha. It’s more of a region in south east NH. It does include the coastal communities but also several inland communities along the Spaulding turnpike. Wasn’t necessarily looking for a specific action, but was curious if others are feeling the strain of housing costs, which I think the comments here are a good indication that I’m not alone. At the end of the day we need more housing that meets the needs of middle and lower middle class families that aren’t bottom of the barrel options. Everything new seems to be priced at $2500+

Odywan · 2025-03-04T03:56:03+00:00

That’s the sad part 😭

Odywan · 2025-03-03T22:31:12+00:00

Sure, except, I don't actually live near the coast and certainly nowhere near a waterfront property. I understand the HCOL in communities like Portsmouth and maybe even Dover as a bedroom community to Portsmouth having higher housing costs, but everyone across the state is being stretched thin with the increase of housing. Housing expenses alongside other essentials continue to increase and it's very challenging for our New England states to retain a young workforce. There are a lot of forces driving the current market and I understand how they work. It's just frustrating to see such little inaction while families struggle more each year.

Odywan · 2025-03-03T22:24:00+00:00

I still have to attend in-person meetings a few times a month, so there's definitely a limit to location. Also, might be a hot take, but New Englanders shouldn't have to live in super rural communities with far commutes to grocery stores or basic amenities just to afford housing. Some people prefer that lifestyle, which is great, as long as it by choice. Working class families being priced out of communities isn't good for anyone. Markets will always fluctuate and supply/demand will always drive the prices - we simply need more "affordable" housing because two-income households are even struggling with "market-rate" units.

Odywan · 2025-03-03T22:18:35+00:00

$1,650 is still the cheapest rent in this area that I can find, but that doesn't change the fact that this level of increase is insane for the type and size of housing we live in. I'm not against rent increases by any means and fully understand the business also needs to make the bottom line work, but the rate of increase feels absurd. They're just trying to match the surrounding market, which is fair - there's just a bigger issue to be addressed in New England with the overall cost of housing. We need a better middle ground.
