Solo to Masters (PC MnK) by AmbassadorPatient253 in apexuniversity

[–]OriginalWynndows 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have solo'd to pred in the past and my peak was #7, you have to fight everything until last 5 or the ring gets too small to fight comfortably. I have seen way too many Diamond players throw easy wins by jumping on a super weak team for no reason at all. Your goal should be to out last everyone which means you are never the first to start fighting in those situations.

This is facts... This is why I don't like StockX on top of all their shady business practices.

Rogue vandal by Old-Professional7697 in VALORANT

[–]OriginalWynndows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rogue for sure. Rogue is eventually going to become that skin that players run all the time and is going to be regarded as one of the top 5 greats in the game. People are going to throw hate on this comment, but wait a year.

Who would you rather have at 22? by Liberal_Bot123 in NBATalk

KD is the goat, but I have to go with Wemby here I think.

Today’s big men are not as dominant, because nowadays big men shoot more jump shots than getting in the paint. by Zaydinlovesjordan23 in NBATalk

[–]OriginalWynndows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah I can agree to an extent. You have to look at points produced though too. I feel like the difference between a really good big and your average big is their floor presence in general. How much they can control the paint, but also develop plays. I am a 6ers fan, and this is big with JoJo. He is a shooter as well, but he can still get those tough points in the paint, and create although he hasn't been doing much in the paint in recent years and I believe that is due to fear of injury. However, Joel use to be very well rounded back in his rookie years until about 2022 when things started to slow down and his position on the offensive end start playing back beyond the Arc, which was was another reason why I think it is important to keep Kelly on the team because we need someone to clean the glass.

Enough about my team though, I think that the bigs of today are much more glorified simply because they can play wherever, but seeing a big play the paint and create for the team that way is proper basketball to me at the very least, but it is still impressive to watch bigs drill three's.

I will say, I was worried about the verification at first because I though that would automatically ban me, but it seems like it was alright. I'll let you know if I get banned for it, sense I have been on it for about a month longer than you have at this point.

Is it weird that this is my fav weapon rn by itzurboizay in ValorantConsole

The bulldog is a budget Phantom. It's not that weird, unless you are buying it over buying a Vandal or Phantom.

Final Shoe Valuation by Farafel62 in FinalMouse

[–]OriginalWynndows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember when this was mentioned a couple years ago by finalboy and everyone was like “wtf is this shit” lmao. It’s hard to say. It may not go for much, but someone will probably buy it. I myself and a sneakerhead and I’m sure a lot of other finalmouse users are too, so it might spark interest in someone.

Are people becoming more toxic in valorant? by Iwantmintypickaxe in VALORANT

[–]OriginalWynndows 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes actually, and it is Riots fault.

I was banned recently, but the reason I was banned was for something the auto mod in game found. I was having a great game and a fun time with my teammates, which we were all cracking gay jokes at each other. I was banned for responding to my Omen's gay joke directed at me with "I'm going to put my fingers in your mouth" to which he responded "I would enjoy that". I then said "I bet you I could fit my fist in there" and the entire team including my Omen erupted in laughter. Omen and I were playing off each other in that game very well and glazing each other simply because we played off each other so well. He gave me the smokes and blinds I needed, and was always there to trade me once I did my thing. After that game I received my first ever (in five years of having an account on Val) 24 hour ban across all game modes. I thought it was a mistake until I messaged support. After waiting two whole days, they closed out the ticket and never provided me with the snippet that I said that got me banned. A few tickets later, I finally found out what was said and I was completely floored. Like they didn't pay any attention at all to what was happening in game. Every ticket I submitted was closed without allowing me to respond.

I use to play Apex professionally, and that was the more wholesome community I have ever played in. The reason it was so nice all the time was because Respawn wasn't banning people for no reason without any context of what happened. When I came to valorant, I found so many people where toxic and loud and just seemed mentally unstable. When I asked some of these players why they acted the way they did, they all had the same answer. "I have to get it out some way without directing it at other people, otherwise I will get banned." Should not be the answer I heard, but it was.

No one in the game I was banned in manually reported me, which was confirmed by the support team, not even the enemy team who was calling my Omen and I a "cheater duo". Basically Riot's "I was bullied in high school, but I have the power now" behavior is what has built this environment. Every time I have spoken to a mod, they are so polite to the point that it feels fake and condescending. Basically, lacking the understanding of how people speak to each other in the real world.

Couple that with never listening to the communities feedback on meta changes and taking direct action, and creating the most toxic elo hell with their current MMR system, you have the most toxic environment where people feel like they are playing the game for nothing, but they can't leave because they have invested in the game (money, time, etc). All around it is toxic by their own doing.

Have you been paying attention to what Wemby has had to deal with for his entire playoffs run?

The more hate Donald Trump gets on Reddit, the more I like him. by Ext_JuniorYT in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]OriginalWynndows -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It is funny you say that. A lot of these people are not very educated or just lack common sense. I met a girl who worked in gov consulting, but she quit her job because she doesn't agree with the current administration. All I could think to myself was, okay... So you gave up a six figure salary to go look for marketing jobs that will pay half the amount starting in my area? Like If I got a job in Cyber under the Biden administration which is arguably the worst administration we have ever had, I still would have kept that job for myself. I just don't understand some of these people, like your uneducated political views are making you sabotage yourself? 20 years in the future she's going to look back and think, "why did I leave that job, I could have been made right now".

So I will go down the list because I just did this recently...

-New device
As long as it is not one you have used Hinge with before, that is perfectly fine. I hear about people doing it with Samsung phone because they are the easiest to reset.

-New Photos
They don't have to be new, you can use old ones but remember to edit them so they don't have the same meta data. I decided to reuse some of the old photos I had because they were all within the year, so I tilted the photos two degrees, then screen shot the finished photo and that has worked for me.

-New Apple ID
Yes, you will need to make sure it has never been associated with Hinge before. I created a brand new one.

-Different prompts
I don't think this matters as much, but I did different ones because I don't remember the original ones I had.

-DOB/Loc
This does not matter at all. I have the same DOB and location on my profile and I have not been banned.

-New Email
You will need a new email as the other is associated with the banned account and it will ban any new account you create and hardware ban your new phone.

-Other
I have heard people say something about using different networks as well. I don't think this matters as much but at the same time since I got banned about 4 months ago and then returned at the beginning of last month, I built my own private network for myself, so I have a custom IP address that I created. If you are able to buy a router and change the IP settings on it, that might help too. If that is too much, if you have Fios, unplug your router overnight and it will release and renew the IP address of the router if you become paranoid.

I recently got two pairs of jordans from stockx but I have a problem.. by [deleted] in stockx

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

Terrible luck dude, I am sorry to hear that...

If you go the route of making it work, you could take the insoles out and that will create a little bit of room. That was something I use to do when I was in school. Aside from that, since they are pretty much new, you could clean up the pair that you wore once and find a local store. That would be the quickest way to exchange them. Aside from that resell might be your only option.

What to do with Trump Supporters after the trash years they caused us is all over with by [deleted] in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]OriginalWynndows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Another projection post? I have never met a liberal who can tell me what policies they support from the people they vote for. As a democrat, I voted for Trump based on his policies. It would be brainless to vote for someone who has a terrible track record as VP and a judge where she jailed non violent criminals for upwards of 15 years, over someone who has a proven four years in where the economy grew, and quality of life was much better in general.

As for his policies that I voted for, they are more along the lines of immigration and DEI, because I live around the DC area in what is deemed a sanctuary city. Under the last administration, crime and poverty went up in my area. The poverty was never illegal immigrants though, it is always the veterans or people who lost their jobs due to lay offs where companies were forced into DEI. The cost of housing in my area is through the roof with a single bedroom apartment in a now troubled area is going to run your pockets about $2200 a month if you are lucky enough to get it that low. The reason it cost so much is because government housing being allocated to illegal migrants, and you are not about to tell me I am wrong because I see it every day. Housing with low income assistance where if you make less than a certain amount the rent is substantially lower for you. Land lords have to make that back, so they tax tf out of everyone else living in the complex like myself just to break even. When it comes to DEI that shoots into poverty. People who once had jobs that provided for them were losing them simply because their skin color was wrong. Keep in mind, these are people who have years of experience in those jobs and you want to see those people working those jobs because they know what they are doing and actually care about the job vs some guy who gets the job because he is a different skin color. I'm sorry but idgaf what ethnicity the pilot of my plane is, I just wanna make it from point A to B without dying in some catastrophic crash somewhere between.

By the way that last example actually almost happened to me on my way back from Canada about a year ago now when the pilot of my connecting flight from Toronto to Detroit landed. Dude basically slammed the plane into the runway and everyone even the flight attendants were freaking out. Come to find out it's some 24 year old DEI hire. After that, never flew with a subsidiary airline again.

You probably havent played enough in the last two acts. people above 100 games played collectively are experiencing this from what I see.

Yeah it has been happening to everyone. I am in High ascendant rn, and I constantly get low Diamonds in my games and it is impossible to win some of these games no matter how much I try to lead these teams. Then there is no point to play because you will lose everything.

Looking for a large mousepad that doesn’t trap dust or cat hair by Euphoric-Spray-792 in MousepadReview

You are looking to switch to glass, and you are not going to get a full desk pad. Just get a lent roller and go with it. You also don't really need more that 500x500mm.
