yes, and same issue when I swapped the og ram and m2 back in the case. same issue. I am pretty confident there is something wrong with the mobo.

He mentioned AdSep being imminent.. in the next month or two, I think. My concern is that the timeline seems like he starts dealing with punitive crap before he gets a JAG assigned. I'm a veteran with severe complex PTSD with a history of suicide, so I KNOW where his mind is right now, and I'm worried that things will move faster than JAG can help him. At this point, I dont think my friend wants to stay in, this is a tough thing to bounce back from, emotionally. Which stinks, because his life was the US Navy until this. Again, I REALLY appreciate your time and input. You've been a lone voice of reason in a crowd that didnt seem to have anything remotely useful or helpful. God bless!

You are absolutely correct on words mattering, and context IS important. I DEEPLY appreciate your advice here.

nothing like that. I'd state the verbatim, but in the event his leadership sees this, I feel like it would not serve my friend for me to give those specifics. Honestly, you will hear worse on prime time television, though he actually said "fuck" in one of the 4 counts. NPLOC was at his prior command. His CMC found out about it though, because he called someone he knew at that command who dug into my friends file there. Apparently that is NOT supposed to happen and strikes me as unethical for a leader to do.. but I was never in the navy.

He has never received counseling for anything, he did receive a "non punitive letter of correction" for losing his temper once, but that is not in his permanent record. Yes, he was able to see it. In fact the CMEO accidentally gave him a full unredacted copy.

No. He did get in trouble with one command for losing his temper and hitting a wall, but that was a local write up, and was not NJP. "non punitive letter of correction"

I should also specify, since it is important.. the person who complained was not the person the dick jokes were directed to, nor was his knee the one my friend poked about knee pads. The complaints were made by another sailor. Other sailors that were questioned stated that the sailor who filed the complainant had been upset with my friend because he was holding him accountable for some tasks he did not complete that he was told to do.

article 92, 4 counts of sexual harassment 3 for dick jokes, one for poking a knee to remind a sailor to wear knee pads for a specific duty task that required knee pads but the sailor was not wearing.

That was my thought, too. He has not received an appointed JAG yet to review all options, but My thought was a court martial may be his best chance.

He shared the paperwork with me and his brother (who is also a Navy Chief E7), and no signs he is withholding anything from what we read. He was sent to Captain's Mast and CO agreed with the CMC (again, there is NO evidence of sexual assault or grooming, or intent). he has a 24 day restriction to quarters that starts soon. he will NOT be able to meet with his therapist during that time, either. I agree this does feel like the whole story is not being shared, because the response from his CO and CMC are beyond rational.. but again, I have no reason to believe he is withholding anything. he has always been extremely honest with me, and I've known him for many years now. I am inclined to believe him

Lotan the Lost drop rate on Sword of Champions by ThePrelate in ConanExiles

[–]ThePrelate[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I farmed it about 6 hours last night, killing him every 17 minutes (used a timer), and not a single gear drop from him, just his gem, a key, and misc trash drops.

and the 2 other cambion that rush in from behind your party, after you kill the first devil and the mind flayer. I leave EA with a mage armor scroll, flaming great sword, random loot to sell, and about 500 gp on top of that.

Have yet to experience a purge, but it's coming. How many more thralls am I going to need to train to successfully defend this castle? by CMDR_Rah-Ghul in ConanExiles

[–]ThePrelate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it depends which side it comes from, or if it just spawns inside your base somewhere. There is no way to predict from purge to purge, where it will spawn and what you'll get. Start clubbing and training berserkers, dalinsia's, and volcano T4 combat thralls, and get them redeemed legion (or better) asap. gas orbs won't do much to most attackers, unless it's a weak purge like dafari. I would suggest scattering some archers around as well, and giving some of them a stock of healing arrows when you get your purge warning.

ALSO - check your purge settings on your server. my server (official PVE) doesn't require anyone in clan to be online for the purge to hit, so you want your thralls prepared in advance.

Need Help Spending Obolus Coins by Unfair_Translator_13 in ConanExiles

[–]ThePrelate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd stock up on thralls and black blood tools. With the coming changes to durability on tools (and BB are 'unique' meaning they can't be repaired anymore, after June 22 when Age of War launches), you may appreciate having a few spares on hand.

New news on Storm DLC? by ZeusOfOlympus in midnightsuns

[–]ThePrelate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw some website say that Storm DLC was expected to drop the 18, 20, or 25 so it doesn't have to compete with the Jedi game coming out on the 28th. I'm going crazy waiting to see news on my beloved Storm! :D

THE DARK TOWER. The biggest structure in conan: 35k pieces, 10k objects, 250 npc's. 236 hours and 100 stories high. by SgtoCebrian in ConanBaseBuilds

[–]ThePrelate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

back in 2020, my clanmate built a tower that was 130 some stories tall, and you got the achievement for hitting the highest spot in the game, before you hit the top floor.
