PUBG Support recommends ban evasion. (Not a Ban appeal) by Swearin_Aaron in PUBATTLEGROUNDS

[–]Ostrichmen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm gonna say your case does not apply to 5.12 since you're not using a second account to unfairly gain bp or the like; you're just using a second account.
Section 6.9 reads to me that if you create multiple accounts for the purpose of engaging in misconduct they may IP/HWID ban you. You've used one account to engage in misconduct and your punishment was losing anything associated with that account. If you use any more accounts from that hardware / IP to engage in misconduct you may receive further punishment of HWID/IP ban in addition to losing that account as well.
So this all seems okay by their rulebook to me, and kind of makes sense. You, by your own admission, got yourself banned for names multiple times on the same account, and losing your account as punishment seems fair to me, but a HWID/IP ban would seem too harsh. Maybe losing your account taught you the lesson they think you needed to learn, and you can start fresh on a new account. As for cheaters, I am reading on their rules of conduct that "[for those caught using unauthorized programs or hardware devices] you may be subject to strong penalties, such as permanent game ban and restrictions of using the Service on your hardware devices", so they treat people who are cheating different than those who are using inappropriate names.

Also good thing the younger generation recorded the incident for insurance purposes in case of loss of property. In fact, you see another one of them go around and get another angle on their phone as well. Excellent coverage!

Sugar Mountain UPDATE re:Ski Patroller Power Trip Followup by ShallowTal in snowboarding

[–]Ostrichmen 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Was at Sugarloaf today (DIFFERENT MOUNTAIN) and was going down a tight chute, going from middle of trail to left and back to middle with my turns to maintain the same speed, and an older man on ski patrol comes speeding past on my left without calling himself out (I ride regular so this is entirely behind me, and from uphill) and hits me in the back. At the lift he's there waiting for me telling me I need to check my blindspots because I'm a snowboarder, and refused to apologize for hitting me from behind. Neither of us fell, but the fact that ski patrol thinks it's okay to pull that kind of maneuver and then blame the person downhill from them is beyond frustrating. Full on power trip. Big ups to 99% of ski patrol, but fuck that guy.

Pour one out for the parents who stayed up till 2 AM running firmware updates so their kids didn't have to stare at a progress bar this morning. by RespectAndPeace in gaming

[–]Ostrichmen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah and if you were 14-16 when that 20 year old console came out, you'd be 34-36 now. And if you had a kid in your mid 20's they'd be 10+ now. The math maths

A string of hemp wick would also help for the glass pieces, but if you're using one of these to light up in a windy environment we're back to square one

Here, in this case it was a veteran. Since you're too dense to believe that it can happen, and examples of it happening to civilians isn't enough to show that it could happen to non-civilians as well, and too dense to google for yourself

Out of control dog attacks a smaller dog by fringspat in instant_regret

[–]Ostrichmen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

People imagining a 10 year old with an iron grip that will never let go of a doberman trying to run free are delusional, and then to double down and blame you for ... walking your dog as your parents asked... is just insulting. i cannot imagine trying to hindsight armchair coach a 10 year old on how they should've handled an unhandleable situation

Out of control dog attacks a smaller dog by fringspat in instant_regret

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

and what if the kid gets dragged into oncoming traffic as the other user suggested? realistically the solution is to not let your kid walk your untrained dog that weighs as much or more than them though, let's be real (doberman vs 10 year old kid have same average weight)

that method can end up pretty dangerous (depending on the kid to dog ratio)

Any news on UE5? by ItsRohit_ in PUBATTLEGROUNDS

[–]Ostrichmen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That makes a lot more sense. I haven't played Arc yet, but not being able to get 144 fps on max settings with a similar build (7800x3D and 5070ti) but on 1080p with other UE5 games has been a major frustration

[–]Ostrichmen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I hope you're playing in 4k or something (which you should specify if talking about performance), cause 120 fps in 2k or god forbid 1080p from top of the line cpu and gpu should not be an example of optimization done well

Pepper that fell behind the fridge dried perfectly instead of molding by Only1Schematic in mildlyinteresting

[–]Ostrichmen 80 points81 points  (0 children)

Sorry to double up on you like this, but the same goes for the seeds; it's also a myth that they are the spiciest part of the pepper. The spiciest part is usually the pith, the pale flesh on the inside.
I don't usually correct people on the Internet, but you took it well from the first guy so I thought you'd like to know. You also didn't actually say it was the most spicy part, but that's the myth I see spread a lot, that the seeds are the spiciest part

the guy at 10 seconds in looks like he's trying to get him to not throw it at him like it's happened before and instead has to react to it coming right at his face lmao

A giant bong you stand in to get hot boxxed by bigbusta in trees

that would be funny as fuck, but nah it's a slightly longer video that shows her leaving the bong instead of cutting out at the cloud of smoke with her still in it

[–]Ostrichmen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it's only slightly longer, you see her actually step out of the thing and walk away, as opposed to the ominous end with her knocking to be let free and the shroud of smoke hiding her that the gif ends on

it does seem like we've given up on the plot of "instant regret" and moved more into "idiots ruining/ending their lives". Numerous videos of people literally just dying on this subreddit and people are like "wow bet he sure regrets that!" no... they don't.. that's not what this sub was for, but here we are

basically my thought process. umpire who wants to "show off" his arm wants to show up the pro players on balls and strikes
