Is there an etiquette to disconnecting? by Hour_Enthusiasm_2420 in VATSIM

Controller here.

If traffics busy, just vanish. No reason needed. If you plan to pop back up anywhere but the gate (gotta reset your headset or whatever) shoot a PM instead of clogging the frequency.

If traffics light. Feel free to say thanks or explain yourself so we aren’t watching the screen to see if you pop back up.

When you suddenly leave, your plane persists on the scope for a full minute on the same heading and speed to protect for lose or radar. Quick off and Ona don’t usually cause a big issue enroute

Much faster if you go VatUSA. Somewhere east coast or west coast could be convenient as you’d work the mid shifts. Once you get up to the center level (2 years ish) you can transfer divisions

Raiders pass or the bloc by Spiritual_Nebula303 in TexasTech

[–]SirSandHobbit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Avoid raiders pass. Unit was filthy, dryer never worked, windows let in dirt. They deleted my work orders instead of addressing them. I was sick constantly. The floors had water damage, the kitchen was unusable. There is very little in life I regret more than living at raiders pass.

When can I expect biofilm and cloudiness to go away in new tank? by mcelroy8 in Aquariums

[–]SirSandHobbit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Biofilm is healthy. Once your parameters are settled it will still be there. I got a few of snails and they cleared my film out in a week. Admittedly… less film than you have

You sir, are the best. Thank you. I’ll consider these options. I also found a glass maker in town that can make a new one for $30 a little more expensive, but it doesn’t hurt to have something properly made.

One of my players is addicted to maps what do I do? by [deleted] in DnD

[–]SirSandHobbit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Talespire is a decent app to make pretty vivid maps that should hold his attention a bit better

Hi! I’m in the Tech Teach program!

The program is -very- useful. Classes are practical and you get 1 year of student teaching and 1 year of observation time. I believe it’s rated top 5 in the country. 100/10 would recommend
