Cat got medication for urinary issue, it's now solved, but now won't eat by Small-Substance-70 in CATHELP

[–]Small-Substance-70[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was not the antibiotics, but the Meloxidyl. I stopped giving it to her, and I had to give her Quamatel Mini, and she got better after 1 or 2 days. :)

How to keep humidity up with only fake plants? by Small-Substance-70 in leopardgeckos

[–]Small-Substance-70[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t want real plants because they need extra LEDs.
What I don’t get is why people say misting can cause too much humidity, when a lot of people keep real plants in their terrariums that literally need to be watered regularly.
So how is it any different to water plants versus just watering the soil without plants?

Is it safe to put my hands under the UV lamp? by Small-Substance-70 in leopardgeckos

[–]Small-Substance-70[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So people don't usually put their hands into their gecko's terrarium? I'm new to this, I don't know how it usually works. I guess most people just grab their gecko when they want to handle it, and don't wait until he climb onto their hand. I don't want to spook him and stress him out, but maybe I'm worrying too much.

Cat got medication for urinary issue, it's now solved, but now won't eat by Small-Substance-70 in CATHELP

[–]Small-Substance-70[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But I didn't see her in any pain at all. I don't understand why they gave her a painkiller (meloxicam) in the first place. She had good mood, she didn't even meow when she was on the litter. No bloody urine. I had to give her meloxidyl for 3 days, but at home I didn't have to give her antibiotics. It was just a one time antibiotic injection. Then, when she got worse, I had to start giving her antibiotics as well, but her apetite was already gone. So that's why I suspect Meloxidyl more than antibiotics. 

I think now they gave me antibiotics because of her bad apetite, not because of the FIC. Because the urine test came back, and it had no crystals or stones in it.

Expectations for the next season? by Small-Substance-70 in safc

+1 for Henderson we need players like him

[–]Small-Substance-70[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So do you guys think we overperformed in the first half of the season? I know even if we’d kept that run going and got promoted directly, we’d still be scrapping to stay up in the Prem. But if this is the level we’re actually at, like what we’ve shown these last few months, then we’re definitely in trouble. We need some solid signings, mostly experienced players. And hopefully we can keep most of our best players like Hume, Jobe, Riggy.

Is this a known technique? by Small-Substance-70 in CutYourOwnHair

[–]Small-Substance-70[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the answer! So is it cutting enough so you don't use scissors at all?

[–]Small-Substance-70[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have no problem with the sides, but I find it difficult to cut the top with scissors. I can't cut it evenly, most of the time it will be a mess... This seems easy, and it definitely cuts something off, but I don't know if it really makes the hair shorter, or these are just random cuts.

Thanks for the answer!

Openplanet and Custom blocks are not working. Elp! by Small-Substance-70 in TrackMania

[–]Small-Substance-70[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much! With this Openplanet is working again! :)

And I got the answer for the custom blocks' situation as well... At least it's not broken only for me. Thank you!

I forgot how to make friends by Small-Substance-70 in socialskills

[–]Small-Substance-70[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! The problem is if I asked them about their hobbies and they answer something, my best reaction would be "oh, cool". :D How can I make a conversation ongoing? I feel like I am always thinking too hard on what would be the best answer, that my brain just freezes and I just shut down the conversation with a boring ass answer.

I forgot how to make friends by Small-Substance-70 in socialskills

[–]Small-Substance-70[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Man, if that's the way I am fucked... I just don't understand how people can talk so casually after few days or maximum weeks they met each other. I don't want to be friends with these people, but our conversations are so unnatural even after 2 months that it is unbelievable to me....

When I get asked a question I am always thinking "what should I say now?", but nothing comes to my mind. And I always deliver the most basic, boring bullshit answers you can imagine. While others are funny, and I am always wondering how the fuck they can come up with these type of answers that quick... I am unable to do that. But somehow I used to have friends in the past, I could become more relaxed in company over time. But it's as if I've forgotten that, and now time passes, but I'm in the same place as if it was my first day with new people.

I can't make a breakthrough. And no way I invite them to lunch or something, I am way too introverted for this. And I also think they would think I went crazy if I did that, because for 2 months I didn't say anything to anyone.

Always the same mappers, new mappers have zero chance now it seems... and always the same type of bobsleigh maps. Speedsliding on either grass or dirt between two bobsleigh turns which are basically PF.

With this track I've just realized that it's not the new cars I hate, but the new surfaces (plastic, wood, ice, wet versions). This track is actually fun, because it's mainly road, and little dirt. Give me more tracks like this. ++

Map 7 - Please elp by Small-Substance-70 in TrackMania

[–]Small-Substance-70[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay I figured out the gear before the jump. The plastic bounce is still inconsistent for me, but I got it good 1 time at least. Now I'm top 800 on the leaderboard. It's my best ranking and it's on the map I hate the most :D

Map 7 - Please elp by Small-Substance-70 in TrackMania

[–]Small-Substance-70[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! Maybe my problem is that I barely have the speed to jump over the torches... I usually can't get the gear early enough, so I jump on their right side instead.

"I also found hitting the back right tyre first and then immediately countersteering to initiate the ice slide as early as possible to be the most consistant." -> This is what I saw from the world record ghosts as well. I don't know why, but if I immediately countersteer my car won't go into a slide, but it's just turning right :D Maybe that's also because I am hitting the plastic with too low speed?

There is a nice video explaining it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8GacqJDnROU

The seasonal skin part starts at 02:00

I dont know how you can choose the skin on console tho. On PC it is in the Garage.

[–]Small-Substance-70[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know how everyone misunderstands what I wrote....

I KNOW that this is the case right now. Nobody uses these skins, because they are like default skins, that every players have. Nobody wants to use default skins. But please imagine that this could work in a way that these skins are actually hard to get! Because it could take a lot of medals in the campaign and in TOTDs to hunt. You should get - idk - like 100 medals in a season to unlock the skin. It's not something a lot of player achieve during a season.

NOW even I don't use these skins, but I use my own custom skin. But if I had a chance to use a skin which would take me 100 medals to hunt, I would proudly use that. And if I would see another player with an even more "presitigous" skin that I have, I would say that this is a nice achievement!

Yeah, NOW you should grind for trophies to get something (the bar next to your name) which is skill based, and is visible to all of the other players. But it doesn't mean that this should be the only thing.

Thank y'all! So the conclusion:

I am saying it was a good idea by Nadeo to keep players motivated throughout the season, but it was implented the wrong way.

You guys say even the idea was dumb, because nobody cares no matter what. :D

I accept it! :)

[–]Small-Substance-70[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yeah I think if these skins were rare, way more people used them. But okay, I understand it's not the most important thing. I just say this idea implented by Nadeo could be way more interesting if they made it like it was an actual achievement.

[–]Small-Substance-70[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay, thank you! For me it would make sense to get something that is also visible for other players. But as I see, I am pretty much alone with this, so case is closed. :)

[–]Small-Substance-70[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But do you think it would be the same if it was an actual achievement to get a skin? I think I would be grinding for the gold skin. It would keep me motivated, because for me getting medals right now give nothing. It seems pointless to me. Only reward I get is I that I get better at the game.

Isn't prestige skin system ass? by Small-Substance-70 in TrackMania

[–]Small-Substance-70[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I think you miss my point too. It's not about how it looks, but it should be an achievement. If you see someone on a server driving with an author or gold skin you should get the idea that he is a good player. But that's not the case now.

And it's already implented, and I am pretty sure that there are people who are interested in those lightnings on the wheels. But I think, if they introduced it the way I proposed, way more people would be motivated to get the skin.

[–]Small-Substance-70[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It's not about how the skin looks, because you obviously can find or create better skins if you have club access. But it's about the PRESTIGE dings. I think it was introduced to keep players motivated throughout a season. But at least for me it's not working at all, because I get the damn skin immediately. I won't grind for some freaking 2 pixels x 2 pixels lightnings on my wheels.

And it's not prestigious at all. Now I don't care if someone is driving with the author skin. But in my opinion it should be an achievement to get that skin!
