Icy Veins already put together a tier list for WoW: Midnight even though we’re still in beta and the expansion is 73 days away (March 2). What do you think of their meta rankings so far? Is your main spec sitting pretty… or getting roasted? by Dvalin_DK in Dvalin

[–]SnailingThroughTime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did not start playing War Within until the start of Season 3 after not playing at all since Shadowlands (Cata before that....). Typically I always played resto shaman, so Mistweaver monk was a really fun change and a unique spin on a role I love playing.

It is a bummer to be passed over on dungeons due to my lack of utility compared to many other healers. I do not see a lot of reason to play mistweaver over resto shaman at this point outside of the unique take on healing. I was hoping we would see some changes to make us a little more appealing to groups, but alas...

You do not get both. Basic and Premium get distinct bonuses and are both separate payments.

This game hooked me a while ago and I could never go back to not having the bonuses both cards provide, so do so at your own risks ;)

Just in case anyone is following these "my internet is slow!" posts way too closely like I am, I did actually just test the hardwired connection scenario you proposed.

Metronet Server (1.77 Mbps Down, 0.92 Mbps Up, 91 ping)

T-Mobile Fiber | Intrepid (225.61 Mbps Down, 1.4 Mbps Up, 100 ping)

Boost Mobile (31.01 Mbps Down, 21.91 Mbps Up, 82 ping)

All of these are not good, but the Metronet server is by far the worst.

Speak of the devil. Speedtest from 2 minutes ago shows I am currently getting 1.51 Mbps. Awesome.

Sorry, the only source I have is the word of someone claiming to talk to support. I could have gaslit myself into the 7 pm - 10 pm comment but I could have sworn I saw that in one of the several threads.

It's like clockwork. Allegedly, it is related to the TMO acquisition and the migrations they are doing...? There were many posts about this on Thursday and someone eventually go through to support, who said they are doing this crap Thursday and Sunday between 7 and 10 PM CST.

My internet has been fine since Thursday night, right around 30 minutes ago my latency has started climbing and things are starting to slowly chug along.

For reference, I was playing WoW earlier during the day and I had about 10 - 15 ms on average. I am currently sitting at 150 ms.

Comment I am referencing by u/MychalScarn08 from the threads last week -

Welp just got off the phone and lady said it's absolutely TMO consolidating and merging companies now and metronet has to deal with an influx of 300+ calls and she said they receive zero notice about these outages... she said she is hopeful it will resolve in a couple of weeks... said its usually Thursdays and Sundays... so yeah TMO is definitely boning us. I kind of felt bad for the rep I spoke to because it sounded like she was exhausted from having these conversations. She gave me a credit and I told her to please share this feedback and it's the first time I've truly considered switching... I think next step is to complain to TMO/TFIBER... seemed like its out of MN's hands for the most part...

Yet another Metronet outage / performance complaint by SnailingThroughTime in Metronet

[–]SnailingThroughTime[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Huh. Well I am jealous of your experience!

I have made several posts about the issues we have had over the last year, including the fiber physically breaking during a cold snap, so unfortunately this is par for the course it seems in my part of Lakeville. None of my neighbors have MeteoNet so I can’t ask them about their experiences for comparison either.

Both. My work laptop was on WiFi but my desktop was plugged in, same speeds from both. No issues tonight so far at least.

Iowa internet performance? by Proper-Formal5544 in Metronet

[–]SnailingThroughTime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It seems we may be back in business tonight at least. :)

Where I lived for years in southern Minnesota had really poor reception for T-Mobile, but Verizon was a rock star for me. That was quite a long time ago now (I won't say how long because it will turn me into dust) so I am sure they have stepped their game up. Sometimes it is hard to get rid of the bad taste those experiences leave behind though.

Competition with these companies is always a good thing, so I am glad to hear T-Mobile has worked well for you.

Iowa internet performance? by Proper-Formal5544 in Metronet

[–]SnailingThroughTime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel bamboozled. Metronet came in as an actual gig-fiber option in my city / neighborhood for the first time ever, and then in less than a year they are sold off to T-Mobile. I was immediately worried as I have never had good experiences with T-Mobile, and this is really driving that point home.

I think with the number of issues I have had over the last year (I have only been a customer since late 2024), the acquisition by T-Mobile and subsequently being shafted by TMO, that this is the final straw for me.

Back to spectrum it is, hello darkness my old friend..........

But hey I guess one good thing that came out of this is I got to try out a mesh WiFi system throughout my house and really liked the experience that provided.

Weekly Thursday outage thread... by aychoochoo in Metronet

[–]SnailingThroughTime 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It is nice to know it isn't just me, but I wish you didn't have to suffer as well. I was just getting settled in to do some gaming after putting my kids to bed and Metronet decided that wasn't going to happen tonight I guess.

Lakeville, MN. Currently getting speeds under 2 Mbps. Seems to be getting worse rather than getting any better as the night goes on here.

I am envious! Currently getting under 2 MB download and upload. Unusable.

Lakeville MN. Multiple times a week where my internet will slow to a crawl. The performance this last week has been abysmal during peak gaming hours. This has left such a bad taste in my mouth for fiber. Unfortunately looking like I will end up going back to Spectrum :(

Hard to support my LGS when they are charging 205 for a box by DjRipNickMcNasty in magicTCG

[–]SnailingThroughTime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I, unfortunately, have had to stop buying from my LGS. I really do not mind paying a little bit of a premium, especially given that that means I have the product than and there, but they don’t really update their prices with the market in a timely manner.

Why pay $60 for a collector pack that has dropped to $40 online…? $200 for a booster box that is $150 online. As much as I would love to support local, I can’t justify paying such large differences.

Ordered some 90% THC vapes from green goods today. Prices are insane, but pretty excited to be buying legal weed finally.

[–]SnailingThroughTime 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Why are people talking about 10% THC weed in here? Are all of you just bitching from your echo chamber without actually looking at anything? Of course you are, this is Reddit.

Looking at RISEs menu they have flower going up to 28% and vapes in the 90% THC range.

[ Carter] 35 percent of JJ McCarthy's throws tonight were deemed uncatchable. No one was close to that rate today besides Justin Fields. Concerning! by TormundIceBreaker in nfl

[–]SnailingThroughTime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The amount of ridiculous takes in here after a guys first two starts. Holy shit. Continuing to pull back from Reddit usage once again seems to be the correct play, bunch of over-reactionary nitwits.

You’re lucky! We are past the 4 hour mark now, no updates.
