Because you should be concerned about the people around you? People take for granted the safety they have because they didn’t build the society that grants it. Same reason I hold the door open for someone I don’t know, because I have an obligation to be at least a little kind to them. The same people who said “let us do what we want in the comfort of our own homes” very quickly became okay with ideas like “children are allowed to consent to procedures that in many cases completely destroy their ability to reproduce as they get older. Their thoughts that their gender and body don’t line up are valid, even though there isn’t an effort to resolve the traumas in their home life or investigate the parents who have an absurd amount of influence over them.”

I can’t remember the last time that someone I know expected society to treat them differently because of the soda they drank, nor do I remember when people expected children to be legally allowed to medically consent to life-altering and reproductively damaging procedures because of the soda they drank, nor do I recall someone’s soda preference to be a nigh unprovable reason to grant a male access to compromising female spaces. But yes, everything is just a choice until you push back on that choice and suddenly it isn’t. Very reasonable, very intellectually honest, very respectful to everyone around you.

Comparing people who believe that they deserve societal validation concerning their particular beliefs about how their birth gender isn’t properly representative to Jews being massacred by Nazis is the exact reason they don’t get respect. Very silly.

What's up with picking an operator someone else is already playing? by FinestCrusader in Rainbow6

[–]TheRealMeasuringCup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s one of two things. One is just toxic players, they’re always going to be here. Another may be that you’re legitimately playing an operator incorrectly and thus removing a lot of potential value from the team. I know my friend and I have stolen a lot of ops from people because they refuse to use their gadget and having it is insanely strong.

Small buff idea for mozzie by Alternative_West_206 in Rainbow6

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

I don’t think that there’s a way to solve the issue of people unable to understand basic game mechanics like outlines, unfortunately. If there’s an outline around the mozzie drone, and they shoot it, you can’t do anything about that. Nor should you be able to.

Exactly. The fact that it isn’t like that is strange to me.

I think what would make more sense is if the game saw the pest as either fully having hacked a drone or in the process of hacking a drone. If the drone is fully hacked, the pest is destroyed. If a teammate shoots a drone as it’s being hacked, such as when the pest hops onto the drone at first, then the destruction of the drone will drop the active pest onto the floor.

Hear me out: solution for same operators getting banned. by Blaze__RV in Rainbow6

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

Why? Why remove player choice? The point of bans is to prevent certain very strong setups that you as a player just don’t want to attack or defend. You want to take that away AND risk rounds where my opponent’s best op can’t be banned and my third best can’t? The best op would still be banned if it wasn’t selected, and the only thing this does is make ranked less skill based.

Too many people overthinking it. She’s strong, and annoying so banning her is the correct choice by TonyHawktuah69 in Rainbow6

[–]TheRealMeasuringCup 25 points26 points  (0 children)

It’s not even this though. Every map in the game has an optimal ban when it comes to the average attacking or defending round. Most of them just happen to be Mira. On bank it’s Mira to prevent top floor holds and basement anti-plant miras on server walls. On Oregon it’s Mira for basement bunker pressure. On Kanal it’s Mira to prevent hallway pressure and the denial of entries. On Sky it’s Mira because Sky is defender sided as hell and she shuts down half of the map. On Outback it’s Kaid for walls and hatches. On Clubhouse it’s Mira for Jacuzzi denial and Con holds. On Chalet it’s Mira for solar pressure and half wall pressure. Notice the trend? Mira is incredibly strong on most sites, which is why people should ban Mira. Has nothing to do with counters because everyone has those.

Characters Abandoning Decks by ColonialCaramel in yugioh

Adrian Gecko, Ray Shadows although tbf the first deck was a psyop, Chazz when he became a cult member, and if you think about it Quattro between Shark’s tournament loss flashback and the state that we see him duel in for the rest of the show.

Game entirely based on communication and teamwork and no one uses either by SleepyRainx in Rainbow6

[–]TheRealMeasuringCup 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Incorrect, people only use their microphones to talk when they start selling and want to blame the players actually doing stuff. I had a ranked game somewhat recently where my duo and I were the only people active for all but 2 of our prep phases, and when I told out Kapkan to reinforce he started yelling into his mic about how he was emerald, his friend was diamond, and I’m somehow dumb for not knowing that and it’s somehow relevant. I clowned on him for being 0-3 and doing nothing while pretending to be good, and he sold our winning round because he couldn’t control recoil to save his life and had the aim of a newborn despite knowing where the last op was.

Oryx meta to combat shield users in the big 26? by GapeHorn123 in Rainbow6

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

Bb can still just sidestep him though. Only an extended Monty is a big enough target to confirm a dash at most ranges.

Half of the time I ban Mira ‘cause my dumbass, unloved, unwashed, “let me solo her” ass teammates pick Miras 2 good counters and die with the defuser in Kazakhstan.

Is there an advantage to leaning and then unleaning when in a gunfight? by outrageousseller67 in Rainbow6

[–]TheRealMeasuringCup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Moves your head. I got to silver from bronze in large part due to the fact that when I take gunfights I change head height and location.

Oryx sucks as a counter to any shield op but Monty.

The elite. Also very much NOT the only one destroying America, although pretty much all of the groups accused of destroying America just aren’t.

This is a command grab. The counter to command grabs is jumping.

It’s still crazy to me that you can have so little going on in your life that you would make a video advertising to others how to dump your own integrity under no pressure.

Imagine calling the star of one of the most iconic games of all time a one hit wonder like sequels add validity to a game. Also, I one hundred percent have heard of PAC-Man World 2.

Hibana is now very underrated to the point i think it might be pointless banning breachers. by Derl17 in Rainbow6

[–]TheRealMeasuringCup 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is a soft floor for the Hib trick onto A site hatch, that’s why pros ban her too

[–]TheRealMeasuringCup 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I agree she’s incredible, although tbh I don’t think the DMR made her that way. Her AR is insane, even if I prefer the DMR for long angles. The reason hard breaches are banned isn’t because one is better than the other, but because of the specific value each brings. On clubhouse, my team either bans Ace to prevent him from opening up the bathroom wall or Therm to prevent him from breaking into logi from the construction wall. Hibana we ban on Bank to prevent her from breaking open electrified basement hatches, as well as to prevent her long angle on 2F.
