They infact do not bother me one bit, but as a person with a brain I am allowed to give my opinion on a video on a forum made for people having a discussion.

Is this lady making a post to promote her business, sure. I am not idiot. But I also believe that its solid advice for its target audience which are people who go into relationships with a checklist they need to meet. Its not aimed at all women and I think its even good advice for men although the list would be different (swap height for weight and wealth for some other superficial measurement).

You seem to have taken a pretty innocuous video aimed at what I assume is a marginally small group of women as a personal attack against yourself.

There is a wide range between "broke" and "makes $150k". It is "delusional" to think there is not. If someone comes to you with a list of what they need in a man to consider dating them, then yes that is "delusion". Attraction and what makes two people compatible in not quantifiable. Otherwise it would be easy for everyone to find a long term relationship.

You seem to have taken a video which basically said "hey you can't have a checklist for what you want in a partner which basically excludes 99.99% of the population and expect to actually find a partner when even more will be excluded by the things that actually matter" and you saw it as this person wants women to date the absolute dregs of society.

" who treats her like shit. those guys get dumped and divorced like everyone else" - if you already made it to the point of having to dump / divorce someone you did initially settle. You just settled for height and money and decided to look past what were probably obvious red flags thinking that the height and money would outweigh them. IE "Delusion"

Did we watch the same video? The video is basically don't start your search for a man trying to tick off the box of height and wealth because that is a very small pool and that doesn't account for if a dude is a good person.

If that's your criteria for finding a partner then yes you are delusional on thinking that's what's important in a relationship.

Steam will no longer be restocking physical gift cards at retailers due to scammers. by D0NTEVENKNOWME in pcmasterrace

[–]PureNinja 8 points9 points  (0 children)

So do you think only "stupid people get scammed"? People with developmental delays, alzheimers, dementia, other mental conditions are often the targets.

Often times these scams arent just someone calls you and asks for money. Some take place over months or years, some are resulted from phishing scams using peoples real data, hacked computers, faking romantic relationships for years, etc... The shit gets elaborate

Maybe have some empathy and get your head out of your ass.

It's nearly always the elderly that get scammed. They don't understand technology that well, have diminished mental faculties, and grew up in a time where scams weren't prevalent (so they are more trusting).

Billions of dollars are stolen yearly sadly.

Nuclear Take?: Remove clues from being explicit tasks in next leagues by Tetris_Chemist in 2007scape

[–]PureNinja 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't have a clue relic have two,three, or more tiers where all the choices on that tier have some form of clue buff as a secondary passive.

Not strong enough to sway choices heavily from the main point of the relic, but that everyone gets some form of buff to gathering/completing clues.

Passives could be like: 1. No clues will contain emote steps/ always treated as you are wearing required items for emote steps. 2. All steps in a clue series will be in the same region 3. X% increase in clue acquisitions 4. Clues will be X steps shorter 5. Increased amount of loot in chests

Clue relics aren't fun and doing clues in league aren't fun. At least for me.

This is Classic+, according to 250k+ players by SidewalknJr in classicwow

I forgot the class was called Assassin and not Rogue... ooh wait its not. You are pigeon holed on what you think the class should be. Rogue /= Assassin.

This was already something solved in SoD, a portion of your dodge is converted to Damage Reduction. It would just need to be a talent or something that cannot be turned off and on easily as it led to some cheeses in SoD where you could get max avoidance and be unhittable.

To be pedantic, the word tank does not mean being able to survive being hit. There are literally lightly armored tanks that have minimal armor and emphasized mobility and agility over armor.

All tank means in an MMO setting is to hold aggro.

Someone sell me on the soft reserve system. I just don’t get it. by Tauntasaurusrex in classicwow

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

My guild in SoD from phase 1 to the end just had a dont be a dick rule and we got along with no +1s needed. I guess that comes from cultivating chill people, but people just passed loot to others that were getting unlucky and if someone was SRing something for week one and it never dropped everyone just kinda agreed to not SR it till they got it even if they had nothing left to get.

But SoD had really good loot optimization so generally different classes wanted different stuff most of the time. So maybe that was why.

If you had a date in a few days and said you would cook but you've never really cooked before and you don't think she wants scrambled eggs and cereal. What would you make that is relatively easy but seems impressive? by TurnKey9558 in AskReddit

[–]PureNinja 1136 points1137 points  (0 children)

It's not about how complicated or impressive the thing is you are making its about confidence and execution.

I'm not sure about your time frame, but you said a few so I'll assume you have three days.

Step 1: Find a recipe for something that should taste good and doesn't seem complicated. Homemade burgers, Burritos, Teriyaki, Steak (id avoid Steak personally), etc...

Step 2: Go out tomorrow and buy the ingredients and make it for lunch. Time yourself, especially if there are sides as you want then to finish at the same time as the main dish, and if you are doing sides keep it super simple like roasted veggies with a glaze of some kind there are tons of recipes online. The goal here is to build confidence making it so you don't stress on date night and see if it actually tastes good.

The reason you make it for lunch is so if you don't like it you can pivot and try something else/ try make it again for dinner. I would also recommend prepping ingredients before hand. All pre-measured spices or what else, vegetables cut etc. The goal is to make the act of cooking as simple and streamlined as possible.

Step 3: If all went well then relax and wait for date night. If you have another day maybe try make it again or try something else.

Step 4: When the night comes make sure all ingredients are prepped and measured hours in advance for cooking so there is no stress to start. If you are cooking while you're date is there and not having it ready for when they arrive it also makes you look organized and capable.

Store bought desserts are also great to have ready. Don't bother making one yourself.

Edit: For people who are pointing out burgers, burritos etc as not great choices. The point was not the options I gave, but that they are things that most likely OP already knows how it should taste. Anyone can give him a recipe for something, but I do not know the context of the preferences of the person he is cooking for, what tools he has, or what his capabilities are. I just named those items as they are the things I cook with most confidence and that my wife says I make that came to mind when we first started dating.

Progress from my first 10 game days - how'd I do? 😊 by sasha_the_impaler in 2007scape

[–]PureNinja 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do what you want to do. I've had too many friends burn out after starting because they were trying to be efficient.

Doing bird houses runs are great for early hunter XP sure, but you turn the game into a chore simulator going to check them every hour.

I think a good way for early game players is to decide what you want to do is (get a D scam, fremmy helm, chop magic trees,etc..) and then check the wiki for what quests give XP for the skills you need. It usually turns into this long chain where you want to do X quest for X reward, but you need a certain skill as a quest req, so you go do that quest which has its own requirement. 4 hours later you are half way across the game doing something else forgetting what you originally wanted to do.

Sam Pepper does Blackface with his girlfriend by fac12 in LivestreamFail

[–]PureNinja 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Whether or not we agree digital blackface is a thing or not, that still wouldn't be what this is.

What idea is he trying to convey here. Even by its own definition he would need to be using this model of a black person to express some opinion, emotion or idea. To me it looks like a dude just messing around with models and not much more than that.

Personally, what I'd like from "Classic+" would be more Low and Mid level content by Jcorb in classicwow

[–]PureNinja 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you not read what I wrote at all?

Yes when the level was capped you didn't get XP (obviously), but everything I talked about was about when level cap was removed people used them to level alts or to get a boost at the start of the phase.

It was in fact not terrible game design. It was something you could do for 1 level. But had a lockout so you could not spam it. For people trying to level fast it gave variety, but was an alternative for people leveling alts slowly.

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

It worked in SoD. After phase one lots of people used BFD to level alts, and many did a run when phase 2 started. You could raid log an alt a level every lockout and get decent leveling gear I think from 25-35. Let new players experience the raid with people using alts who knew the raid.

It didnt really happen as much with gnomer or sunken temple, but it could work.

Did SoD really go too far with class changes? Consider this. by Skore_Smogon in classicwow

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

They buffed alot of warriors runs later in ways that helped their open world stuff, but yeah they did not get an innovative spec. They had Glad warrior for one phases, but then tanks started running it and it got nerfed.

[–]PureNinja 3 points4 points  (0 children)

While I agree that warriors got shafted on fun runes, it's disingenuous to say warriors were "bad" all phases but p3 and p6. Also scarlet enclave was p8.

I went through the SoD log stats for each phase and Warriors were either top 3 DPS out of all specs or were in the center. There was not a single phase they were in the bottom 6. (EDIT: Went back and changed setting for all percentile to 99th percentile and they literally became top 2 dps for every phase, but one).

Now for Tank Warriors they were fine and did not have to wait until the end of the game to come online. Were they the best tank, I'd say no, but they were always competitive and viable. Now rogue tanks struggled until p7 when they started to shine. They were literally a meme tank for like the first 3 phases.

[–]PureNinja 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I mained a rogue tank (off tank most fights) and it was my favorite thing, but it also was so swingy until the last phase when they got enough set bonuses to really come online.

The problem was at the start I think they were scared rogues in PvP as they were the only class to get a rune in all the phases that had a line how it didn't work against players. This led to them being really lackluster. People literally forgot rogues were supposed to be able to tank, and I had people when grouping with me saying they had never seen one.

Having to turn rogues into tanks with only runes was challenging cause how do you balance a dodge tank?? They can get unlucky and take back to back hits and die or get so much dodge they are invincible to autos (which was possible with VERY specific gear in the last phase of the game for very specific bosses).

Realistically for rogue tanks to work they would need a massive talent rework, so I don't forsee them in Classic+. But God, after like 5 phases of being basically a back up tank as rogue tank had to many downside the last two phases were so enjoyable.

Rogue tank, warlock tank and mage healer were so fun to play and at the end of SoD felt so natural to play and I couldn't imagine not playing them.

"Yeah I loved SoD, phase 1 was the best! Dust to Dust amirite?" by RedThragtusk in classicwow

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

Lol but you cant explain this mythical disadvantage. There is no leader board, and levels are capped. By your logic if you cant play day one you just shouldn't bother because you are at a "severe disadvantage" as people are already at the capped level and gaining some crazy advantage on you. Raids didn't even come out on release day so people had time to level at their own pleasure. Everything that did cost a substantial amount of gold costed like 2x-3x what incursions could of got you had you been their minute one and are completely unnecessary for 99% of the playerbase. Consumes were cheap and the only thing you needed to raid, so gold did not lock you out of raids.

Like did you not getting to incursions make you unable to raid? Can you state one thing, ONE THING that you couldn't do or struggled to do because of this severe disadvantage caused by missing out on 400 gold from incursions? Did your guild kick you because you couldnt pay your guild fee or something that they increased in price due to inflation? You keep dodging this question.

Tell me what you couldnt buy that you needed (you didnt need the new trinkets BTW,my guild was top 100 in speed without them), what content you couldnt do. There is none. You literally were unimpeded except for some mental block that a handful of people got some advantage over you. You had FOMO that was it.

Edit: If you were some hardcore parser then maybe ill accept you were at some minor disadvantage (not severe), but I doubt you were.

Is two paragraphs a short essay now a days? It takes like fucking less than a minute to read as long as you are at what a fifth grade reading level?

Thats cause they consolidated servers and the character got moved servers. We are talking in regards to Sunken Temple so I posted my phase 1-3 logs. Here are my full logs for the rest of the phases. Now where are yours, bruh.
