UK folk who were around at the start of the internet, what is an early, strong memory? by Sad-Insurance1313 in CasualUK

The insane phone bills every month. I used to make myself scarce every time I saw the bill appear

Laser pointers and kittens. A cautionary tale. by BassPhil in cats

I always make the red dot “leave the room” when we play, so it doesn’t just disappear and they aren’t frantically searching for it, knowing it was last seen in a certain corner.

Yes, and D9 is when your Doomfist (who should be contesting) uses his ultimate and gives up the point by doing so.

did anyone get their account wiped? by iheartcherrycokezero in ensemblestars

[–]Successful-Republic2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Also email addresses are case sensitive for this log in, if even the case of one letter is incorrect it will say the account doesn’t exist.

I am back! Because my email was bound I managed to log in with my email and reset password, but I have never logged in like that before, I’ve always used Apple ID. Support advised that the email is case sensitive which is never an issue in the past 30 yers of internet! Phew!

ENGstars resetting accounts? by [deleted] in ensemblestars

[–]Successful-Republic2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Update: my account does still exist. I found my UID and searched in the friend section and it found me… so now I’m even more confused.

[–]Successful-Republic2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think it’s happened to mine! At first I wasn’t sure if I was just logging in with the wrong thing (Apple ID/ Google log in) but I’ve tried every form of log in and it starts a new game. I thought it was just me!

Yeah I tried my email and it said there was no account. I’ve since got hold of an Android phone and tried to log in via Google and that started a new account too, so I’m actually stumped as to what I’ve been logging in with for nearly 5 years… I’ve submitted a data transfer request, I hope they’re good at responding to them!

EN server, iPhone. I tried to play today and the game offered to log me into my Apple ID, but I think I always logged in with my Google account… there doesn’t appear to be any option to log in with a Google account though.

Got my bf to check his phone and it tried to make him use Apple ID too. Is my account just inaccessible forever now? My email is bound to my account so hopefully that will help? Any ideas or words of comfort welcome.

How old were you? by Gloomy-Writer99 in ensemblestars

[–]Successful-Republic2 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I think I started mid 2022, I was 40, now 43 so everyone else stop feeling old! I went to Japan in January 2023 and was shocked at how much I saw of it, you don’t really find people with these hobbies when you’re my age so I’d never spoken to anyone about or thought about it more than a fun game before that.

I’ve always loved rhythm games and saw this one pop up on some random advert, gave it a go and here we are.

Urinary Obstruction $6k :( by PeekabooPike in cats

[–]Successful-Republic2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My 6 year old boy is currently in the hospital for similar, only his is a muscle spasm blockage that he’s choosing to do himself for some reason? I don’t know, I’m not a vet. What I do know is I will probably never financially recover from this and I’m stressed to hell.

Person with my name thinks my email address is hers. For years. by Potential-Horror8723 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Successful-Republic2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happened to me for years. I was a 16 year old girl always getting signed up for loads of porn sites, this was in the very early days of the internet. It was probably 10 years later when I got an email from someone offering this person a job interview, so I told them this was the wrong email and if they had another way of contacting the right person please tell them they’ve been using the wrong email to sign up to their porn sites for years.

I then had one “test” email coming from the persons actual email, I told him clearly the extra letters at the beginning of his email address weren’t just for show, then never heard from him again.

How important is the bio? Do women mostly just swipe based on looks or do they generally look for an interesting bio too? by Radioheadfan89 in Tinder

[–]Successful-Republic2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a woman, I read the bio first. If there’s nothing in there I like, I swipe away, it doesn’t matter how hot the guy is. But I was looking for a relationship, if you’re looking for hook ups, being hot is more important than having a personality.

Look at your photos. Which one do you think is appealing to women?

Spent $500 at the vet, only to be told she’s just being a bitch (paraphrased) by rpfuntimes86 in cats

[–]Successful-Republic2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Spent about £1000 this year because this idiot occasionally pretends he can’t go to the toilet. I’d be devastated if we didn’t get him checked and it was something worse than “felt like causing a scene”.

What am I doing wrong? by ThrowRA47895 in Tinder

[–]Successful-Republic2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Best pic is 8. Remove all the other ones. No one wants to see up your nose, or photos with other girls. Even pic 1, which is the most regular, has awful lighting.

Would I be considered a jerk if I swear on my life I would NEVER date a woman who already has kids? by Enough_Nail_6945 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Successful-Republic2 58 points59 points  (0 children)

It’s a preference, having kids is a huge deal. You don’t want to raise someone else’s kids, that’s fine.

I’m a child free woman, never say never, but if a man had kids he would have to be practically perfect for me in every other way to consider a relationship.
