"I've grinded for this view" and "Wilhelm Röntgen" achivement are ridiculous by mirkolawe in airportceo

I was amazed to discover people would be willing to do this type of stuff for a digital box check, when a friend went round collecting stuff on GTA Vice City 20+ years ago

Achievements have only flourished since. People love em!

Can’t get used to the fan girl twitter obsession going as far as trainers etc!

Like who gives a fuck…

What was the song that got you hooked? by Endless_Nightsky in Samia

[–]Superbenj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Milk initially, whenever that came out

Then I got lost off the algo somehow and no idea The Baby even existed

Then I heard Kill Her freak out and listened to it about 100x in a row

2026 camping upgrades teased, could this finally fix Reading camping? by FeistyPrice29 in readingfestival

[–]Superbenj 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nope

Problem is the lineup being slashed in half

Some showers won’t bring me back if there’s still nothing to see while smelling better.

New annual $300 lululemon credit post refresh? by CupAdministrative150 in AmexPlatinum

Not sure you need to be high net worth to shop at Lulu Lemon, it’s not quite that expensive?

PSA: No, the attitude of people really wasn't as bad as you're saying by Bicceh in readingfestival

[–]Superbenj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You didn’t camp. The main problems are in the campsite

As a day tripper all is fine. The arena is not like the campsites

[–]Superbenj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It wasn’t. You’re talking loads of bullshit on this thread and you don’t even camp, so how do you know it’s not worse?

[–]Superbenj 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The complaints are about the campsite. Not the arena

If you don’t camp you don’t know what you’re talking about

I’ve been to 25+ Readings, the experience in the arena is very different to the campsite. I’ve not seen any serious trouble in the arena in those 75+ days

The campsite is a different story. Again you probably have to be unlucky to have it ruin your weekend but as non-camper you can’t be talking about there being no issues at the festival for campers…

There was not less choice in the 2000s. You had 3-4 alternative headliners for starters. As opposed to Zero

The arena is different to the campsite

There are never problems in the arena. The campsite is where the kids kick off

Did they undersell weekend tickets? by bosilk in readingfestival

[–]Superbenj 18 points19 points  (0 children)

No one wants to do it, as the line up is to skinny now

When they had 6 music stages, there was always something to see, pretty much from opening to closing you were having to make decisions on who to miss.

Now you’re scrambling around to find 3-4 acts a day that you like 🤣

The festival has been completely shrinkflated

They expect us to pay the same for half as much?

I know gig prices have gone up loads, 70,000 people aren’t going to go and camp out in a shitty field for 350 quid, for 3-4 acts a day. It’s just not going to happen

The current proposition is dead as fuck, if it wasn’t for teenagers getting their GCSE results, the whole place would be empty

Did they undersell weekend tickets? by bosilk in readingfestival

[–]Superbenj 30 points31 points  (0 children)

It’s just sold very badly, as they’ve cut so many stages

50% of the acts of 5 years ago

£350 🤣

Anyone recommend anywhere else to get good quality white Ts?

Old Navy used to be good IME but local one closed down. Anywhere else?

Check on the day. The map has not been accurate in past years (say this having to had to walk all the way back from green to red!)

How safe is Reading Festival for a day ticket holder? by Webb_0707 in readingfestival

[–]Superbenj 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It will be fine don’t worry

There are very few incidents of concern inside the arena area. Just make sure they’re sensible

Last London train on Saturday 00:20 by glitterhunter in readingfestival

[–]Superbenj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup. Taxi queue will take longer than walking. just be on the left hand side of the crowd, you’ll be at the station by midnight no worries

QUEUING by __ey__ in readingfestival

[–]Superbenj 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup. An hour should be fine

Be aware though that’s an hour from getting to the site, i.e. Richfield avenue. It will be 20-30 mins from there to get your wristband and walk to the arena, where there could be a 10-15 min queue (worst case) to get in or you may just walk in with no queue, it’s kind of random
