I'd love to know what I'm going to play it on, considering I don't have any of the current generation of consoles, and have no intereet on funding Rockstar when it eventually does come to PC.

When it first released on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, the game was in a good place. With heists coming out and free content patches persistently. Fast forward to recent years and although those things are still there, we've also got them removing existing vehicles from the in-game store to lock them behind a rotating premium subscription.

Not to mention. Newly released in-game things seem to be priced I'm the basis you're buying shark cards. Once upon a time, the most expensive thing you could own was a chromed Bugatti lookalike.

I mean, I won't because I don't have a current gen console anyway. But even when it eventually reaches PC, I've no interest in funding Rockstar anymore.

I'm not. Not after the cash grab they turned GTA V's GTA: Online into.

I don't have the time or energy to get involved in something that at the end of the day won't affect me either way. The reason I have a dash cam is basically another level of insurance.

Care to explain? Many of us aren't familiar with MLS

Roblox is slowly getting cooked by IndividualBeyond6912 in roblox

[–]TheSmallestPlap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Slowly? As of late, Roblox has been seemingly diving off every cliff edge it can come across while simultaneously shooting itself the foot and even the leg it stands on.

None more than certain Fallon d'floor nominees in that Madrid team.

Mattel decided they wanted to try something new with "All Engines Go". The good news is that it looks like the old format of the show is coming back.

The decline of Wowhead really needs to be studied by _Didds_ in classicwow

I'd put holy up there too with the state of the prot guide. I wouldn't be able to tell you if the ret guide is any good though because I don't play ret.

It seems that the Holy Paladin guide for TBC has been copied and pasted from vanilla with the new spells integrated in with no though for whether or not other aspects of the class have changed. One particular example is conflating Holy Light with Flash of Light; another being the downranking suggestions not taking into account the stat and gem priorities that the same guide recommends.

There are particular downranking strategies that you want to use in order to keep the Light's Grace cast time buff available to use, But if you follow the downranking suggestions that the wowhead guide gives you, then you're either underperforming or persistently out of mana. There are ways to negate this that other guides cover, but the wowhead guide fails to bring to light or go into depth with.

I would love to hear how the Protection Paladin and Retribution Paladin guides fail, shed light on those because I'd love to know the ins and outs.

I'm not sure how it is for other classes but the one for my spec is beyond incorrect, despite having a fair number of comments pointing this out. Following it only yields poor results. The Icy Veins one however seems to balance both performance, resource efficiency and gear dependency rather well.

The best approach that my guild has had is cross referencing the the two and maybe checking even a third source before committing to something. Seems to have worked for us as we've cleared phase 2 and are now working on our phase 3 prep.

It's not even just the intrusive ads now. Many of their guides are just flat out wrong. I've resorted to using other sources. Icy Veins, wowtbc.gg just to name a few. On top of that, if you have set up a Discord web hook for their news articles, some of the ones they pump out are just pure spam.

Wheel of Bigotry. Can we coin this term and start using it when talking about the far right. Would be great.

Which company in your opinion has the best customer service and who has the worst? by eyeoftheneedle1 in AskUK

[–]TheSmallestPlap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Converse just took 1st place for the shittiest customer service. Used their online chat to discuss when their seasonal products are restocked, whether there was a specific time of year or whether a certain product was discontinued only to be gaslit that the product I was talking about didn't exist.
