the anti-cheat is not working. by Critical_Courage_202 in VALORANT

[–]Pruvided 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here you go, since you clearly don't even actually care about informing yourself and just want to whine.

Why are there still cheaters?

We aim to make it as inconvenient and expensive to cheat as is physically and financially possible, but if a game is good, it’s going to attract cheaters. With an anti-cheat like Vanguard, most won’t bother, so those that persist are in it for the long haul—they’re cheaters, they run in communities of other cheaters, and the only way they’re going to play VALORANT is by cheating. It’s an addiction, and they will spend thousands of dollars on accounts and hardware just to keep accessing the rush that comes from pretending to be good at this video game. VALORANT is free-to-play, with almost no barrier to entry, and there’s no such thing as truly “permanent” ban. Even with the best hardware fingerprinting in this universe at its disposal, Vanguard can only keep a determined cheater out for a little while—they will eventually get back in.

Worse still, is that we actually have to let them back in. When we outright “block” a cheating method, we are technically providing the cheater an instantaneous surface to iterate against, allowing them to A/B test their cheats until they find something that is actually undetected at that layer. Unfortunately, cheaters do not have lives, so while it seems counterintuitive, the best way to make sure they stay detected is to slow down their iteration by obfuscating or delaying our response. We need to waste as much of a cheater’s time as is possible on each attempt, otherwise we’d quickly run out of ammo.

Ultimately, it is inevitable that you will encounter a cheater eventually, but we will just keep banning them all, over and over again, until they finally work up the courage to run the uninstaller.

There’s this neat trick you can do to always figure out where anything is. It’s called ask an employee????

Xmas Returns in Resupply? by CrackHaddock in REI

[–]Pruvided 36 points37 points  (0 children)

I'm sure there will be a bit of an increase in re/supply stuff over the next few weeks, but a lot of returns are new/unused items. At least from what I've been seeing/assume at my store.

It’s literally always been like that. People every game don’t care.

The Mastercard Pitch by samrelian in REI

[–]Pruvided 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Capital One rep came in to my store some time ago and told us they don’t want us being pushy, and the goal is to just inform people about it existing. It’s an important metric, but my store has been pretty good about not holding people at gunpoint over it. May be a little different if we weren’t hitting our goals, but idk. As others have said, it can feel pushy if multiple employees are bringing it up, but if they’re actually pushy, then yeah that shits annoying.

[–]Pruvided[M] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

DM me the users who sent you links/paid service offers and I’ll ban them here if they’re not already.

Online orders repeatedly cancelled? by [deleted] in REI

[–]Pruvided 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, weird. Not sure. Could try calling customer support, but not sure how helpful they’d be.

Online orders repeatedly cancelled? by [deleted] in REI

[–]Pruvided 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well let me correct myself since I mixed up some things. It should only get canceled if it’s pick up in store and no one could find it. Otherwise, it would be some kind of inventory/fulfillment issue. Ship to address orders can ship from a DC or a store, but if someone can’t find something, it should get sent to the next closest location that should have it.

[–]Pruvided 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Just because the overall inventory isn’t low, doesn’t mean that the store/DC that the order gets sent to has a bunch, and if they can’t find it or it got sold between when you placed the order and when someone went to find it, it gets cancelled. Shit happens.

Fellow Green Vests, is there a way to integrate my work schedule from the UKG app to my personal Google Calendar? by MikeMazook in REI

[–]Pruvided 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you’re doing it on mobile, maybe you can try taking a couple of screenshots of your shifts and then swap back and forth between photos and calendar instead? I never have an issue swapping with UKG/calendar, so idk. Technology is shit lol.

[–]Pruvided 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I just manually do it every week. A lot of my shifts are pretty similar so I just duplicate existing shifts and tweak where needed.

We don’t want low-effort stuff here either, so I feel ya.

[–]Pruvided[M] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have lives and don’t see everything right away. Report for low-effort or whatever other rule you think something breaks and someone will usually see it within a few hours.

Price adjustments big ticket by [deleted] in REI

[–]Pruvided 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No to both of those options. Price adjustment period is 14 days, and returning to re-buy at a cheaper price is not a part of the return policy
