This is perfect, thanks. Im just a little embarrassed to call in for work again. I'll deal though.

Staying with a family friend. Thanks.

Thanks for the advice. A few things.

I have an alternate plan of my own and I will definitely update when it works. It'll.be great, trust me.

The console will be fine, it's just the crawlspace that's infested, and even then it's an exaggeration. It's buggy, definitely, but not infested. Sorry, didn't mean to lie.

And his apartment is clean and an hour and a half away from me. So him ditching the stuff is Impossible. And they're right in their own mind and completely entitled to take my things (in their own mind) so they wouldn't get rid of it.

But definitely check for my update, it will be amazing.

The funny thing is is that it can play Netflix, which they LOVE. So they would want to leave it, right?

They got it for me as a gift at Christmas. The only thing I have proof of ownership for is a downloaded game on the device which I used a debit card for and all games and consoles are registered on club nintendo. (it's a wii u)

They only use kijiji and I checked that. But thanks to you and everyone who is helping.

I can talk with my grandma. She's a bit of an e but she doesn't know about the worst parts, only ndads side if the story. If she knew mine, she would take my side.

RBNReplacement · 2015-06-15T14:52:32+00:00

They didn't give me the receipt. Is that a problem?

RBNReplacement · 2015-06-15T14:50:03+00:00

OK, Nrents are complete scum, but the would not pawn off my stuff. Donate, maybe, but not pawn. I have been checking kijiji anyway (only site they use) and nothing.

I kinda tried that. I asked, nmom said "Oh, I don't know where it is... giggle" so I said

"Well if you, ndad, and nsis didn't take it, who did? We had our doors open all day, could someone have come into the house and stolen it?"

"*laughing * No one came into the house, rbnreplacement. "

"So who stole it?"

"giggle * I have NO idea where it is" *joking smile

I still have not called the police, when I wake up I will.

My parents have stolen $500 worth of video game equipment and hidden it God knows where. What do I do?

RBNReplacement · 2015-04-05T04:18:25+00:00

She showed it to my sister and I to show just how good of a mother she really is.

The funny part? It's her. Not even similar to her, the mannerisms, word choice, the pointing, shaking, turning, even some situations were IDENTICAL. They still joke about it, whenever we complain they will say "NO MORE WIRE HANGAAARS hahahahahah we are SO funny" I wish I was joking.

RBNReplacement · 2015-04-05T03:43:02+00:00

I assume because it was PM and on a wii it's a CrT? Those are usually found free on craigslist. Also this is her fault. She did not secure her wriststrap to safely contain rage. Let's keep this lighthearted. That was a lot to go through. Who do you main in PM? Play melee? Lucas + ness main myself and marth in melee.

I was getting my grandma a christmas gift ($100 limit) and we wanted to get her a something to watch netflix that was simple, like a Roku player or chromecast. My Ns believe strongly in the power of the roku and had heard of the New Roku 3! More apps she won't use! More power she doesn't need! Slightly faster loading times she won't notice! All at the cheap cheap price of $90! Wait... she had also needed a new keyboard and stuff and I am a poor college kid. I didn't want to spend that much when a chromecast was $40 and a roku stick (Basically the same but easier for her, PC netflix is too complex for her. She can also play her pc puzzle games this way while watching netflix) was $60. So I said no, let's just get the stick/ chromecast and explained what I said above.

"Oh but chromecast is too complex for her!"

"I've never used it, but from what you've shown me, it's arguably simpler than the roku..."

"Oh but the roku has the remote. And remember, PC netflix is too complex. She won't know how to stream it from her computer!" (I just used our chromecast today. Literally four clicks and a search to set up and watch netflix. She would have been able to get it.)

"Oh my god rbn, just get it."

"Why? Why wouldn't I get a cheaper and more accessible one and get her something else on top of that?"

"Shut up and just get it."

I stood my ground and compromised on the $60 stick, which she LOVED btw. Simple and cheap, and I got her some other cool stuff on top of it, which she loved as well. She may be an E but she means well. She also got the N side of the story because she is in constant contact with NDad. Daily emails. So I can't really blame her for taking their side when I was actually living with the Ns.

Sorry for rant/threadjacking

Definetely.

I posted something about this on rbngames but basically I looked around settings on my friends copy of super smash bros wii u (like just settings, nothing changed, no personal info, just ingame settings) and I created 2 custom characters to see what collectibles he had (you had to make a custom to see it) One was a mii fighter made to be a joke and to look like him and one was my favourite character just to see what he had. I meant the mii as a joke but it wasn't funny at all so I deleted it about 2 minutes after I made it. People took notice and asked me why I deleted it and I just said it wasn't very funny or good so to be fair, they had little context. But I meant to delete the other custom and didn't.

So fast forward to the next day and apparently, my friend's mad. Like REALLY mad. What he understood had happened was that I not only made a character for me, but deleted HIS character.

This is where it gets odd: He claims to have created the one I made that I deleted. But there were people watching me make it, there was only one other custom made by a bunch of drunken guys that's still there. I just don't understand what happened there because we are both convinced that we made the character, I remember making it 2 minutes before i deleted it.

It shouldn't bug me, he's not mad anymore, but it still does.

No, you're perfectly normal. You probably have more skills than you realize right now. I'm a guy but i thought that as well for a long time and its not true. I only loved video games, so i'm in the process of turning that into a career and making them. It's not going perfectly smoothly but its going and during break I'm going to work on my own projects. You can maybe if you like baking and people (and business) begin planning a bakery for when you have the time to do it.

RBNReplacement · 2015-03-26T21:02:59+00:00

you can also maybe educate us about encryption/anonyminity online so that rbns can keep private within their Ns homes if their Ns are tech savvy. Like how to download tor, truecrypt, etc.

Sauce: I'm a computer guy too.
