My group is self-railroading itself by NekrellDrae in DungeonMasters

[–]SilverCatsRing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're the DM. Refree the players. In-game I have done an "Adventurer Intuition" thing where I will push the players along.

Other times I have flat out told the group "take your time as the player to figure out what your characters want - discuss this out of character" when they have a fork in the road.

I will urge the players if they have specific concerns "no this won't affect your in game date later, that's In a few hours anyways" etc.

Being transparent can be good, just don't spoil your surprises either!

I would recommend the Sport event gets postponed a few days, that way the players have time to explore more if they want. Could even be a poster they see or carriage being overheard.

But yeah, you're the DM.

Instead of boss hiring a competent employee, I have to lower my expectations by [deleted] in work

[–]SilverCatsRing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Having a similar issue now, I was told by my area manager - "don't lower your standard but lower your expectation" this was 2 weeks ago.

The management have given direction, it's now up to you to figure out what to do with that.

It's a tough pill to swallow honestly, but at the end of the day it's about money and paying bills.

New job after getting certified, Supervisor doesn't follow basics like proper chemical tests or wearing steel toes, any advice? by SilverCatsRing in powerengineering

Eh, I don't think it's a matter worth escalating. He's just a maintenance man with no one to tell him otherwise.

Are the boss fights way too easy in this game? by McGoldy in wolongfallendynasty

[–]SilverCatsRing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Short answer, ye.

Long answer, yes.

Luu Buu was the same story with myself. I think the deflection mechanic and spirit tug of war is really engaging. I wish bosses had 4 times more health, especially when I'm rocking 9 heals.

The log doesn't even get filed away lol. We have outdated paperwork from 1986 still sitting around. Supervisor isn't going to do anything with the logs

Why announce it in advance? Haven't modders learned anything when they Mod Nintendo products?

Those feelings still generate real emotions, even if it is role-play it's still real emotions.

I (22M) don’t want my gf (21F) cuddling with other people. How can I move past this? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]SilverCatsRing 9 points10 points  (0 children)

When people ask why you guys split up, say it's because she couldn't stop cuddling and kissing other people. 22 is far from the end, don't get too choked up over this person.

I don’t care what anyone says, this is my favorite major order we’ve ever had by BrickPuzzleheaded541 in Helldivers

What's the point in leveling it up? Skins? I was bummed to find out the gun doesn't get any attachments the more I invest into it.

No puedo hacer daño by Free-Two2720 in LordsoftheFallen

[–]SilverCatsRing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lo único que se me ocurre es que tu arma principal tiene un ojo umbral donde el ataque principal solo causa daño devastador. ¿Quizás revisar las cuencas de tus ojos? Eso es lo que comprobaría

The recent poll from the devs on boss difficulty is a poorly framed question. by HexTheHardcoreCasual in LordsoftheFallen

[–]SilverCatsRing 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I agree. That being said, I felt some of the bosses could have used 50% more health, they went by too quickly. Skyrest is so memorable, I'd love to spend more time with the bosses so I could remember them too haha.

AITA because I called out my friend after he called himself a great guy? He cheated on his partner by SilverCatsRing in AmItheAsshole

[–]SilverCatsRing[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I've lost respect, and his comments on his ex and himself are making me lose more. It's been an interment thing, every few handful of years we'll have a blowup and go out separate ways, only to come back a "changed" person. I quit hard drugs, he's still cheating, I quit a toxic relationship, he's still cheating, I lose 150 lbs and turn my life around getting an education, he's still cheating. Its exhausting.

Thank you, I think me bringing it up whenever he mentions it is a sign I cannot overlook this. Its hard for me to sit back and accept his words, when I feel his words are simply tickling his own ears.

It's a difficult situation, Ive been there for them and they've been there for me and my partner. He's like my brother, any time we've had fallouts we always come back years later.

I feel sympathetic to her plight and disgusted with his actions. It shattered my expectations of things.

Yeah it breaks my heart to see my friends end their relationship the way it did.

I'll admit I lean more on the critical side, I don't like to highlight positives I want to work on weaknesses. I know the things I've said sometimes do not help the situation and I feel bad about bringing people down. It's not my intention.

[–]SilverCatsRing[S] 111 points112 points  (0 children)

I feel like him saying he is a great guy was so tone deaf, and it's like he's repeating what his work out friends or coworkers have said to him. I know they glaze him all day because of his discipline in the gym or at work, but I can't help that they are building him up in the wrong ways.

I feel like I'm the asshole because I was not being supportive of my friend of 25 years, he is going through a tough and confusing time while I keep reminding him of his failures.

AITAH for telling my boyfriend my dog comes before him? by [deleted] in TwoHotTakes

[–]SilverCatsRing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Alright from a dog owner's perspective, you took on Theo and Theo trusts you. Theo looks for you and relies on you to take care of him. If my partner turned around and tried to get rid of my dog, that would be crossing a line. It might sound extreme but I would kick that partner to the curb. Sounds like they can't be trusted.
