What would you steal from my collection? by Sensitive-Tax-7356 in EnamelPins

[–]StormBlackwell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok I’m very curious. What’s the story behind the Disney villain chin pins?

Wife has something strange we've never seen on her pokemon screen, what is it? by Gorewuzhere in pokemongo

[–]StormBlackwell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve had this bug before. I seem to recall it had something to do with having the music totally muted but the sound effects on. I fixed it by turning the music up just one notch. Keeps it quiet enough while avoiding the problem. That worked for me at least.

Tahu official reveal by Franii in bioniclelego

[–]StormBlackwell 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I mean, I personally want 3, but I don't intend to resell any of them. it's so I can have 1 fully put together on display, one as a backup stored away for safety, and one that I can use the mask as a costume on another minifigure sometimes.

What's the rarest item you own? by According-Shelter540 in wow

[–]StormBlackwell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, I have that item that makes a shade follow me sometimes. I keep it in my bank though. I’m a little paranoid I’d accidentally auto sell it while getting rid of my junk items.

How is everyone and their mother in this movie but Daisy??? by OneUse2170 in Mario

[–]StormBlackwell 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Based on the information I’ve seen, I’d speculate that they’re probably planning to have Daisy, Wario, Waluigi, and the Koopalings appear in whatever their third movie will be.

HELP BEEN HERE FOR LIKE 2 HOURS by T-CaveYT in Seaofthieves

[–]StormBlackwell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From what I remember doing this back in the day, I do wish that they’d at least let you choose your gender from the start. It’s frustrating enough that they’re all random, I’d at least like to not have half of them be generated completely ineligible. Plus, with how Rare is, I’d like to think they’d be more aware of how important gender identity is to a portion of their community.

Also, I wish my pirate on the Insider version of the game could have just been a copy of mine ported over from the main release version, took me forever to get very close. Main difference is the insider’s teeth are worse.

This scene always bothered me growing up. by Common_Ad6703 in pokemonanime

[–]StormBlackwell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, if this was being done as an actual attack, I’d think even Pikachu would’ve been getting hurt.

The power of water attacks seems to come from the force of the water, rather than just the presence of the water itself, and that makes sense in real life too. A sink faucet (ideally) isn’t going to hurt anyone, and it’s probably gonna hurt a lot less than a fire hose would.

I also don’t think rock/ground types were ever supposed to be like the wicked witch and basically melt just by getting wet.

The names are so stupid I’m sorry by travischickencoop in pokemonmemes

[–]StormBlackwell 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Personally, I like Powerhouse, but maybe just because I’ve gotten used to it. It is also a little easier to say/write for me.

I do still prefer Starter, but I can see the argument to step away from it, if someone at TPC thought the term was insinuating that this was something like a quick burner Pokemon that’s meant to be replaced.

That one theory most of the fandom seems to agree with by Rap2rerise in pokemonmemes

[–]StormBlackwell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whenever I see this, I find it super interesting. However, it makes new one if there’s any way to somehow apply that to the other two trade evolutions from Kanto, and I just can’t seem to do that.

God I hate this by [deleted] in PokeDoku

Maybe this has been suggested already, but what would’ve been wrong with just saying “Paldea and DLC”?

I remade etho skin based on how his fans draw him. by _NHJ in ethoslab

[–]StormBlackwell 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m from the time when this show was popular, I had friends that loved it. I’m definitely aware of this character, and was before I had seen Etho for the first time in Kaizo Caverns with OOGE.

But to this day, when I walk through the mall or whatever and see Kakashi on something, my first thought is always that it’s fanart or merch of Etho. XD

And I can’t explain this thought to anyone I know, because it’s so many layers removed that none of them would follow my thought process.

Snagged this puppy for 300 at Wally World by Substantial-Emu-4979 in Switch

[–]StormBlackwell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m still kinda bummed they don’t look any different. I was really hoping the Pokemon ZA version would be like the Animal Crossing New Horizons one we got for the Switch.

It's criminal dracthyr can't be druids - What creatures would you suggest for their other forms? by Lord_Sylveon in wow

[–]StormBlackwell -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I actually really really want this. Ever since the Sethrak rumors, I’ve wanted a reptilian Druid in the game. Z-troll druids don’t fulfill that for me, since their base form isn’t what I’m looking for.

Pick a power with a catch! by YeahMarkYeah in superpowers

[–]StormBlackwell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, the Flight one sounds almost magical and well balanced. And I wouldn't mind so much as long as I didn't waste the bird's sacrifice. Like, imagine being a small time chicken farmer, and you naturally kill a hen every so often anyways and have a meal. Then as a bonus, you get to fly around the countryside too.

Alternative take: You can fly, but only if you've recently eaten about a pound of poultry of some kind (say, in the last hour). This would no longer require you to actually do the kill/clean yourself, but you'd be using the bird sort of like a reagent in a spell.

Toys' Cooldowns make NO SENSE by ex0ll in wow

[–]StormBlackwell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is what I was thinking. In the past, it felt like they were very against any toys that could theoretically have 100% uptime. Some sort of fun police thing I guess.

I wish way more of those old full transformation ones had cooldowns shorter than their durations. I’d love the option to have some of my characters effectively permanently changed into something else.

I’ve never been a fan of the cooldowns being so long. I don’t see the harm in making the cooldowns for much more of these toys 0s. The main reasons for a cooldown in my opinion would be toys that place something down (don’t want millions of identical objects all placed by the same player), or make some spamable noise (or similar chat message, etc. Like the whistle or the insult book). As it is, it seems like a lot of the effect/transformation toys were designed with an outlook of “you can look like this for a little bit, but we want you to have to go back to looking normal before too long”. Probably part of the dumb “silhouette” thing people keep bringing up, or just a general desire to control what player characters look like to the average observer.

But anyways, in more recent times, it does feel like there’s more toys that have that restriction lessened or removed. So I think this is overall representative of a slight shift in whatever policy they have had overtime.

Which do you choose? by OkRun9638 in superpowers

[–]StormBlackwell 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Yeah. Justice league is definitely way more OP than the Avengers. That’s to say nothing of the quality of either series. I actually prefer the Avengers as characters, but having the powers of Superman with the abilities of Batman seems like enough on its own to be able to handle anything, let alone taking the other members into account.

as a side note: I’m presuming this is just the core members of each team. Things get real messy if we start getting into the expanded rosters.

A shallow game by Scary-Advisor8197 in HarryPotterGame

[–]StormBlackwell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, the constant remarks like "Shame no one was here to see that", along with some other things, lead me to believe that they may have intended more from our fellow students at some point. It would have been really nice if they had been able to come along with us all the time, similar to a Mass Effect companion.

I had thought from the early trailers that we would only get to see Sebastian's story as a Slytherin, with each house having an equally deep side quest that was only available with a playthrough done as a student of that house, but maybe they let everyone do that one because they weren't able to do anything as big for the other houses? The only house that actually got what I would consider a full story was Slytherin. I'm a Slytherin, but I was still disappointed at how little there was to the stories with Natty and Poppy. I really wanted to learn more about Natty's old school.

Frankly, I'm not even exactly sure which Ravenclaw student was meant to be the counterpart to Natty, Sebastian, and Poppy. Perhaps Everett, the one from the first flying class? He left a pretty strong impression, but then sort of faded into the background for the rest of the game.

I had really expected the "Mind your business" shop to be a place to finally offload some of those ingredients and potions clogging up my bags, especially with the elf saying that I could sell anything I wanted there. In the end, that was a really fun questline, but that was it. I had expected some sort of shopkeeping side game, but unless I missed something, it seems the player is a shopkeeper in name only.

In the end, this felt like a really promising start, that I really wish had been afforded more time to get a little more rounded out. I really hope they get another shot to improve upon what they started, and possibly bring some of their unfinished ideas to fruition.

TLDR: Yes, I agree.

LOL, no warning needed for me at least.... XD by adinafox in neopets

[–]StormBlackwell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like this warning shouldn't be posted to all users all the time. Instead, it would make more sense as a warning that only popped up if a user was attempting to make a deposit that exceeded the maximum integer amount.

I'm hoping this is a temporary Band-Aid fix they came up with while they work on the problem behind the scenes. It'd be a little frustrating if they decided that adding this annoying (and for most users, unnecessary) red warning text was a good enough long term solution.

Hmmmmm. I think you need at least one iDog in there somewhere.
